Felix on the team after his sub-par start in Oakland...
Surveying the clubhouse scene around him, long forgotten in this latest Mariners victory, starting pitcher Felix Hernandez leaned over and whispered an observation.AP Photo/Ben Margot"I think we're going to be better this year than everybody thinks," he said.
Jose thinks it's a "beautiful group"....
"Everybody's talking about 'team' right now,'' he said. "We're running a lot, especially first to third. Moving the runner. We do little things to win the game. Play baseball right. Move the runner, bunting, like today in the ninth inning.
"We've got a beautiful group right now. In spring training, everybody was happy, everybody's together right now. Everybody's a teammate. We go to the dugout before the game and say 'Let's get a win, boys! Let's get a win! Let's play hard, let's play right.' Even if we get a win or a loss, let's play the game right.''

Wak, liking the dislike...
“One thing I heard when we left Minneapolis was that the Twins were happy to see us go, and I’ll take that as a compliment,” Wakamatsu said. “We want to be a team others don’t like playing. That means doing a lot of things right.”
