DUSTIN ACKLEY RUMORS
My oh My! Top play of the week for the Seattle Mariners (video)
Straight outta Little League
With the Seattle Mariners going for the sweep in Colorado, manager Eric Wedge decided to take a chance on a extremely delayed double steal in the 1st inning.
Kyle Seager took second, and Dustin Ackley stole home. Seager then took third on the errant throw to the plate. National League managing at it’s best. As they say, “when in Rome.”...

Retooled Mariners lineup contributes to weekend success
The new-look Seattle Mariners lineup with Dustin Ackley leading off and Brendan Ryan batting
second is off to a good start. The Mariners won two of three from the Twins over the weekend with this lineup, which
came in the wake of left fielder/third baseman Chone Figgins being moved into a utility
role. Figgins was hitting .189 as the club's primary leadoff hitter, one...

Seattle Mariners off to a fast start
The Seattle Mariners got the season off to a sluggish start hampered by their old friend, lack of offense, in splitting the first two games of the season against Oakland in Tokyo. However, between that slow start of the season and this weekend, the Mariners’ bats have come alive. The offense led the way twice to lead the Mariners to a weekend sweep of the A’s. Seattle...

Dustin Ackley and the Mariners get off to a smiling start
While you were sleeping this morning, the Seattle Mariners and Oakland Athletics played 11 innings of baseball to kick off the 2012 season. This bonus baseball resulted in a 3-1 triumph for the Seattle Mariners, which kind of sucks for the Oakland A’s seeing as how they gave up a couple of home games to go over to Japan and play the Mariners for the good of the game.

Seattle Mariners spring training brings up uncomfortable infield questions
The Sweet Spot?
I sometimes wonder what is happening in the back rooms at the Seattle Mariners front office.
It is like there is a high stakes poker match going on within the stake holders of the organization that end up in lost bets having to be carried out on the field.
Some of these nonsensical moves are the way the M’s are moving the position players around the field.

Hey Jack Z? Who’s on first? Ackley’s on second. I don’t know is on third
Act Like Clowns?
If you are like me, you struggle with making small talk in awkward social situations. So I have compiled a small list that I call my cheat sheet to get me through some of these difficult moments.
Instead of asking someone what they do for work and have to sit and listen to them tell me about them drone on and on about a job that I don’t understand or care...

Player Profile #109: Dustin Ackley | 2B | SEA
The largest criticism of Dustin Ackley is that he’s a better player for the Mariners than he is for your fantasy team. He lacks elite power or speed, and both Seattle’s lineup and ballpark will have adverse effects on his production. Still, there’s something to be said for the discipline and talent that this kid has. If you’re projected to bat third for a...

Wanting Back Ackley Doesn’t Require Steroids
I’m not a huge fan of Dustin Ackley. Way to sell the reader on this keeper out of the gate! Why don’t you just tell me he slept with my Random Italicized mother too? Sorry, Random Italicized Voice, just being up front. The real world is already harsh enough with the truth and non-slanted letters. Lie to me! I love Dustin Ackley. Oh, forget it now. In Ackley&rsquo...
