BOREVASI
From The Seattle Times:
By the trading deadline at 1 p.m. tomorrow, the Mariners are expected to have made deals involving infielder Dave Hansen and left-handed reliever Mike Myers, names that have been in play for some time.
As a result of the moves, or at least that of Hansen, Seattle hopes to create room on the major-league roster to bring up shortstop Jose Lopez from Class AAA Tacoma, a promotion regarded as imminent.
"We'll end up doing something, I couldn't tell you how many right now," general manager Bill Bavasi said. "Nothing earthshaking. It's going to be a boring deadline period for us."
Bavasi was too busy scarfing down Dodger Dogs the past 4 years to notice the exciting deadline period in Seattle. Yeah, nothing happened. I'd rather not talk about it, at the risk of going insane.
As for Jose Lopez, he will take playing time away from Willie Bloomquist. Oh, and he's supposed to be pretty good. Heh.
