I wanted to express some of my ideas about some of the recent moves and going ons in Mariner land. First off the big news of the day is that Brandon Morrow is slated to start Friday September 5th against the New York Yankees. The M’s sent him down to stretch him out and to see what his future could be in the starting rotation. The reports out of Tacoma have been mostly good, but his ...

The Mariners continued there horrendous season this evening laying down for the Chicago White Sox to a score of 13-5. Jarrod Washburn continued his downward spiral since not being traded. He was knocked out of the game in the fifth inning after allowing eight earned runs.
The offense once again lacked the crucial hit and compiled only five runs on 15 base hits. The M’s bats left 13 ...

If you were like most Seattle fans, angry and confused about Washburn not getting traded, then your likely to be pretty upset today. According to Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times , Jarrod Washburn cleared waivers without a single team putting in a claim. This means that Seattle is on the hook for the remainder of his contract, about 13.5 million dollars, and will be with the team in 2009. ...

It took the Mariners a long time to finally make the two moves all M’s fans wanted and most baseball minds agree with; DFA Vidro and send Morrow down to the minors to stretch out. I’m not sure if the M’s were thinking that someone would actually give us a player for Vidro, but lets give them a little props for finally making the right call. GM Lee has done exactly what ...

There’s not a lot to talk about on the Mariners front. They still suck and look even worse tonight against the Twins. Batista still sucks and shouldn’t be a starting pitcher. Vidro still sucks and I have no idea why he is still on the team. Yuni’s defense still sucks. But I thought that I could give you guys some good news of sorts. It’s been hard to come by, but there ...

Seattle Mariners selected Aumont number 11th in the amature draft last season even though the Canadian had little baseball experience. The M’s inked him to a 1.9 million dollar signing bonus. His size (6-7 220lbs) and movement on his fastball was all the M’s had to see to take a chance with this kid. This was a little out of the ordinary for the Mariners becuase they tend to draft ...

The Seattle Mariners were expected to make a couple of trades today, but in the end they made only one. Arthur Rhodes was shipped off to the Marlins for Gaby Hernandez. Hernandez (22) is a double A pitcher who has shown mixed results this season. Rhodes was one of the M’s names that most people expected to be traded and GM Lee got good value out of a non roster invitee.
Hernandez was ...
