So ESPN NFL reporter John Clayton has the athleticism of an old lady, not the most shocking news in the world but it is hysterical when the evidence supporting this fact is presented before you.
Clayton got an opportunity to throw the first pitch at the Seattle Mariners game and not only was the throw brutal but the jersey he was wearing was very unflattering.

John Clayton’s Tosses First Pitch At Mariners Game
ESPN’s John Clayton received the honor of tossing out the first pitch before the Seattle Mariners’ game on Friday night. Clayton took to the mound sans a ponytail, and did his best to make the grunge folks of old proud. Unfortunately his pitch ended up falling just a bit short of home plate. Good game, good effort.

SOFT TOSS
John Clayton trains for, throws out first pitch
John Clayton is as popular as ever. The ESPN NFL analyst, commonly known as the “the Professor,” threw out the first pitch last night at the Safeco Field prior to the start of the Seattle Mariners game. Clayton even had himself a training regimen leading up to the game. Gotta hand it to Clayton, as the guy isn’t afraid make fun of himself, as we saw last year in the greatest...

Umpire badly blows double play call
First base umpire Jeff Nelson blew a call in unbelievable fashion on Friday night in Seattle. In the bottom of the second inning, Mariners catcher Jesus Sucre hit a grounder to first baseman Mitch Moreland. Moreland threw to Elvis Andrus at second for one, and Andrus fumbled with the ball before throwing it back to first for the apparent double play. Only that's not what really...

Seattle Mariners Option Catcher Jesus Montero To Tacoma
The Seattle Mariners have optioned catcher Jesus Montero to their Triple-A Tacoma minor league affiliate. Montero, who was expected to play a solid role with the club this season, has struggled to a .208 batting average over 29 games.
What is even worse, the Mariners look to have soured on his defense as they are reporting that he will be playing first base in the minors, which isn’t...
Nothing goes right for Seattle Mariners in Anaheim
For the Seattle Mariners, their nine-game road trip started off very well with a series victory over the New York Yankees that left them one game short of .500. Then, the bottom fell out. First came Cleveland where the Indians took four in a row including three walk-off victories. Seattle was unable to rebound and lost two straight in Anaheim and now find themselves with a...
What Does Jesus Montero’s Future Look Like Now?
The Mariners stuck with it for 735 innings. Despite the fact that nearly everyone in baseball agreed that Jesus Montero could not catch at an acceptable level in the Major Leagues, the Mariners let him try for the equivalent of a half season spread out over eight painful months. Now, it seems like the organization is accepting the reality that Jesus Montero is not, and will never...
Seattle Mariners demote Jesus Montero
New York Yankees fans were pitching a fit over a year ago when Brian Cashman traded away star hitting prospect Jesus Montero to the Seattle Mariners for starting pitcher Michael Pineda. They really became pissed when Pineda showed up fat and out-of-shape to Spring Training, and then subsequently injured his shoulder, costing him the entire 2012 season. Yankees fans envisioned Montero...
Jesus Montero Optioned to AAA Tacoma
Seattle Mariners catcher Jesus Montero was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma and will be replaced by catcher Jesus Sucre. Interestingly Mike Zunino is the starter in Tacoma and Double-A back-up catcher Brandon Bantz has been moved up and will be has backup.Where does that leave Montero? Apparently the Mariners will look to play Montero at first base and DH. Zunio is considered...

Jiu-Jitsu proposal is romantic, dangerous
Sports guys never seem to run out of ridiculous ways to propose to their girlfriends. There was Adrien Broner’s fake post-fight proposal, Mariners infielder Brendan Ryan’s magical trip to Japan, the Olympic swimmer who proposed in the swimming pool and about 100,000 guys who thought popping the question at a baseball game would be a fun, new idea.I’ll be honest and say I never...

Just when you thought the Seattle Mariners might have found a glimmer of hope in the never-ending crapfest known as “The Last Decade Of Baseball In Seattle” “Their Entire History (Except For Those Four Seasons They Actually Made The Playoffs)”, they put together a stink bomb of a series that quashed any notion that they might be righting the ship.

Eric Wedge, the manager of the Seattle Mariners has to be fit to be tied, about now. he watched as his former team the Cleveland Indians took 4 in a row from his Seattle Mariners this weekend. The series, which concluded today could have gone any worse for the Mariners. The Indians out played Wedge’s team and they made Justin Smoak look stupid while doing it. Smoak looked like...
