GILLICK IS GONE
Just heard it on the Softy show on KJR; Pat Gillick is officially gone (pending another GM hire) as general manager of your Seattle Mariners and will remain as a "consultant." Let the search begin. Among the big names on the replacement list are Omar Minaya of the Expos, Jim Beattie of the Orioles, and Lee Pelekoudas in house.
Now if Howard Lincoln could step down, we would have something big here...
So to recap: two days, two guys gone. Yesterday the hitting coach was axed, today the GM bolted. It's gonna be an offseason to remember, folks.
