When Jack Zdurenciek was hired I had my doubts. But his scouting background did impress me. And now that I've seen how he goes about his business and the way he presents himself, it shows me this guy has it more right than Bill Bavasi ever did. This guy is smart. Yeah the moves made this year ...

Is Griffey..Fat?
First off, i love the fact that Griffey is back with the M's. If you grew up in the Northwest in the '90s and don't still idolize The Kid, you're a communist. I spent a good 5 minutes today staring at his page on the M's roster. I still can't beleive it. I'm giddy. That being said, one picture on the Seattle Times gallery put a damper on all of this bromance and revelry. There are...

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...
Scraps: Wilson, Aumont, Fonseca, YuBet
Some odds and ends to get some new conversation

Ken Griffey Jr. has made another transition in his late great baseball career. After departing Cincy then moving on to the WhiteSox the star veteran slugger has found his place back where he started. The Mariners have offered him a contract to play for a year worth $2 million. He'll have to work on staying healthy this off-season and be ready to spring into action. I have a feeling...
A-Rod-induced fantasy titles are tainted
Forget the record books; put an asterisk next to any fantasy-league title A-Rod helped win. Or in Peter Schrager's case, lose.
Ron Kittle Thinks Canseco's a Marked Man?
Former White Sox player and 1983 American League Rookie of the Year Ron Kittle says that he fears for Jose Canseco's safety. Right, snitches and stitches and all that; Peyton Manning taught me all about it. Here are some Kittle quotes from the Trib:
"My first thought was: 'I wonder who's going to be the first one to shoot him,' " Kittle said Monday. "I still think...
Mike Sweeney: Will He Make the Opening Day Roster?
I recieved a text message from a friend that read:Last season I pulled hard for R.A. Dickey to make the squad. This season it's Mike Sweeney. I really like that guy.Dickey was a pleasant surprise last season, he was actually pretty decent. He didn't warrant a resigning, but he was arguably better than Carlos Silva and Miguel Batsita. Like Dickey, Sweeney is entering the upcoming...
