One of the craftsmen of the Brewers young core, I think the Mariners made an okay choice, considering most of the really good candidates (see: Hoyer, Forst, DePodesta) either would or could not interview.

I started with the premise that I could tie nearly every person I've interviewed (we're at 40 and growing) for Jimmy Scott's High & Tight to each other, and then went out to prove it. One example was connecting in Geoff Goetz , former #1 pick of the Mets and #6 overall, to Dave Baldwin , a former player for the Senators and Brewers (that's Dave's artwork on the left called "The Mockingbird Sings To The Relief Pitcher"). I did it like this: Geoff rehabbed in the Marlins system with former Marlins #1 pick ...
