M's are 12-6 since the TX trip. I've been hard on GMZ & Wedge for poor lineup construction and not bringing up Triunfel / Franklin, but credit where credit is due: 1) Wedge held the team together through that first tough month with no public locker room friction 2) The players play hard for Wedge 3) The M's pitching staff is anchored by 3 free agent pickups that cost the team no talent to obtain - Iwakuma (a free #1 starter - maybe GMZ's best move ever), Wilhelmsen, & Perez (aka nails). Has any other GM in baseball picked up so much free pitching talent? 4) Morse's acquisition for Jaso,combined with the free acquisition of Shoppach, has changed the tenor of the M's lineup night in and night out - great move by GMZ. Now sign Morse for an extension, please.
