Balta1701 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 The M's have themselves a new 1b. Exchange for a currently unnamed minor leaguer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I really like what their GM has done this past year or two. Just a lot of good moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Well the best defensive team in the game gets a little better in that department. Kotchman is well below average offensively, though. Especially for a 1B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Very solid move. Kotchman won't hit for power, but he is a good hitter for average, he will not strike out much (probably BB more than K) and he is a gold glover with very good range at 1B. Still only going to be 27 this season and can get back on track with consistent playing time. Mariners have had a very good offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still only going to be 27 this season and can get back on track with consistent playing time. Mariners have had a very good offseason. They should be pretty good regardless. But if they can get anything from Bedard (at least 20 starts would be a good starting point), they could be the second best team in the league.

chw42 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Another good move by Jack Z, that M's team is going to be really good this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwerty Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 You better bet tom tango has had great deal of influence this off-season for the mariners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 What a terrible move. Mariners are really running their franchise into the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunk23 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 QUOTE (chw42 @ Jan 5, 2010 -> 11:46 PM) Another good move by Jack Z, that M's team is going to be really good this year. It's sad seeing how poorly the Brewers are being run now that Jack Z is with the Ms. Who now have an insanely good defense. They'll be a fun team to watch. This also potentially removes a spot for Branyan, who would look pretty good with the Sox on a short contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
