Seattle Mariners Blog:
I'm starting to get cold feet on this whole deal. I mean, why are we giving up one of our best relievers and TOP prospects for this guy? OK, he had a solid end to last year, but that's ONE year of good pitching. Why throw everything and the farm at this guy who's only had one good year? Moreover, he's only signed up to 2009, so if things go bad in Seattle, he could easily jump ship and we lose three solid players. Time will tell, but my gut is now telling me that this is not a good trade.
