Deal's done.

Bedard for Adam Jones, George Sherrill, Chris Tillman, Cam Mickolio and Tony Butler.

Thoughts?

They still don't have enough offense...their best hitter is a base-hitter for average. Where's their pop at? Not Raul Ibanez...he of the .260 BA!

Almost opening day!

GO MARINERS!

Well, there's always next year.

WORLD RECORD FOR THE MARINERS!

We have the most losses of any team with a hundred million dollar payroll in history!

WOOOOOO!

Record!

WOOOO!

Those are everyone's thoughts now lol.

I'd be feeling worse about the Mariners season, but you know, the fact that the Yankees aren't going anywhere either, well, that makes things a little better in my books. Now all I need is for the Rays to win the World Series, though I just don't want the Sox or Angels to win it.

It's not going to help us contend all that much, but the sentimental factor is huge.

KEN GRIFFEY JR. IS COMING HOME!

WOOOOOOOOO!

MY OH MY!!!

This truly was the best option for him in my opinion. Obviously, the sentimental aspect is great as even if he has an off year, he's come back home. Also, playing in the American League allows him to have a lot of time spent as a DH which should help his body at his age. Personally, I'm hoping for Jr. to have a huge rebound year as baseball sure could use the feel-good story that would generate about now.

Another opening day home run for Griffey!

Aaaahh. The tradition continues.

Break out the rye bread, grandma! It's a graaaaaand salami!

Heck of a start for these M's.

Well, there's always next year.

Felix Hernandez and Cliff Lee.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee?
