Seatowning 2/22/09: Juan Garcia is the MAN

Random Musings
I don't think Griffey mania going to die down anytime soon. Opening day is going to be crazy. I think the Mariners are going to surprise a lot of people this year. All of these little signings and trades that Zduriencik has made have added up into a solid makeup of a team. They're not going to win the World Series or anything, but finishing 2nd in the AL West is in the picture.
