Were all the young guys chucking in Tacoma, G says, "that's a LOT of talent that isn't helping the big league squad get Ws - and we aren't likely to replace 3 starters midseason with the best Tacoma has to offer, either.
It would push back their learning curve along with their service time. That isn't what I wanna see."
Bingo, G!!!! It isn't good for the Mariners...and it isn't good for the kids. Double bad mojo, that.
It now appears pretty clear that ERam, Beavan AND Maurer are ready now. Garland can't stick around in that environment! (Can he?)
2020 (7 years....if we save 'em all (well, mostly Maurer) is a long way away. Man, it's 2014-16 that look juicy. Let's focus on those seasons....oh, and '13, too.
You know, after Garland walks, a slightly-tweaked J. Saunders tendon, and the corresponding rest period, wouldn't bother me much at all.
The "just one" back-up infielder thing still bothers and worries me. But I'm beginning to see my way through the rotation fog.
#'s 4 and 5 have got to be kiddies.
