SPIEZIO IS NOW A MARINER
3 year deal
``The signing of Scott Spiezio provides us with another quality hitter,'' Seattle general manager Bill Bavasi said. ``He is a great situational hitter and has an ability to come through in the clutch, which was evident during the 2002 playoffs.''
Evident? Hell, by this logic, Tony Womack has an ability to come through in the clutch as well.
Spiezio is a nice player. Not a great player, but the Mariners could have done worse here. But he is not worth 9 million. Not even close.
But he's a veteran, and he's over 30. YEP, HE'S A MARINER.
"KILL" BILL: I WASN'T ABLE TO SEE SPIEZIO HIT IN THE CLUTCH, I WAS FIRED, REMEMBER?
