The Mariners did indeed lose 5-3 to the Rays as Troy Percival closed out a 1-2-3 ninth. Once James Shields got that three-run lead, you kind of knew he wasn't going to give it back. Carlos Silva just went off on his teammates (some of them) in the clubhouse post-game. Says only half the team trying to win, the other half padding stats and making starters look bad. Said he's close to throwing someone up against a wall.

wow i am betting that the M's are really wishing they won't have given him that big of a contract... HAHAHAHA!! jokes on them... they are going to have to stick it out with him, since NO ONE else is going to take his contract on..

Trash him all you want but he was talking about EFFORT. If you read the Seattle papers he stated that it was hard for him to speak out because he hasn't pitched well this season but he was talking about EFFORT. Silva has at least tried each and every game unlike players like Yuniesky Betancourt. The problem is that the Mariners don't have any other players in the clubhouse with Huevos.

Silva, you stink. Be quiet. Sure the Mariners have leadership problems, we have all year. The brilliant FO set it up that way. You lead by example and your horrific ERA ain't doing that. Clean your own backyard before you start pullin' weeds from others.
