NORMALLY THIS WOULD BE GREAT NEWS...
But I echo David's sentiments.
In the "spirit" of Kazu's possible departure, here's the free agents the Mariners will look at. Bill Bavasi has money to burn. He might as well make this offseason even worse than it already is.
Ellis Burks: He's 39, and he's a "professional hitter". Just what the Mariners like.
Ron Villone: He's 34, and he's a former Mariner. Oh, and he's a lefty.
Marvin Benard: He's already been rumored to be a Mariner. NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Tony Womack: He's hurt, but he has playoff experience. He's a Melvin guy, i.e. former DBacks.
Personally, I'm glad Sasaki won't be a Mariner in 2004. I still haven't forgiven the guy for giving up that home run to Alfonso Soriano in Game 4 of the 2001 ALCS.
But again, I'm not too pleased over this. Expect the M's to give Marvin Benard a 3 year deal worth 12 million. I am.
