SEXSON, PART 2
If the Mariners were to trade for Richie Sexson, I'd have no problem seeing one of the M's pitching prospects leave town (either Rett Johnson, Travis Blackley, or Clint Naogette). You could also throw in a Brian Sweeney or J.J. Putz.
As the USS Mariner's David Cameron pointed out today (link on the right hand side), Do we need any more evidence that you don't win by building around "pitching and defense"? Or that "small ball" is code for "inability to score runs"? The M's have needed a power hitter for three years. You don't win with a line-up of slap hitters.
Damn straight, David. And Mike Cameron is as good as gone.
That's all.
