I've been a Mariners fan ever since I spent two years in Seattle since the mid 90's. I have to say that I find all this talk about dealing from the strength in our pitching disorienting. I can not recall a time when the Mariners had such an embarrassment of riches on the mound.
Beavan's performance last night was reassuring, and may just be the latest good news in support of a trade now scenario.
My preference would be to trade Vargas, and to trade for an outfielder under team control for at least a few years.
