GO-TO GUY WINS
Now we knew Jim Moore of the P-I would win his bet against Jeff Cirillo, but we didn't know by how much. The bet was above/below .280. The outcome was .205. Yecch.
Cirillo made $6 million this season and stands to make at least $14 million over the next two years. But he's through as a Mariner. He knows it, and so does everyone else. They will trade him if there's a taker, or cut him and eat his contract.
later...
"I'm not doing any soul-searching right now," he said. "I'm in a state of relief, to tell you the truth."
He is planning a family vacation in Anaheim in two weeks.
"How do you celebrate the worst season of your life?" Cirillo said. "I'm going to Disneyland!"
Well, happy trails, Jeff Cirillo. I wish you weren't a headcase.
