The Braves originally drafted Johnson, but he chose to go to college instead.

Fucking nerd

AZ can have him, and we'll go ahead and celebrate another SB on their turf ;-)

Randy became the Big Unit in Seattle but the Mariners FO went on a smear campaign against him so even if he did get a choice I couldn't blame him if he said hell no.

Best years were in AZ. He was good in Seattle, damn near untouchable in the desert.

M's hat or bust. It's lame he doesn't get to choose. No doubt we'll be snubbed so Diamondbacks it is...cool...all is "right" as usual for Seattle fans.

His best years in AZ? No. His best MLB stop was in AZ, no arguement. But 2 of his 3 best years were in Seatttle in 95 and 97. You could argue, but you'd be wrong.

Johnson just got a job in the AZ front office...

NL West Notes: Haren, Venable, Padres,

The cap has been secured.

Yeah, I saw this yesterday. The timing of the hiring was not coincidental. At a press conference, Randy was asked about which nhat he wanted on his plaque and he reminded everyone that it was not his choice and, at the time, he hadn't thought about it. But he gavve Seattle alot of love and he gave Edgar a whole lot of love. If he was sincere in what he said then I get the feeling he would rather not have to choose between Seatttle and Arizona. so maybe he will go in blank.....unless Arizona offered him an unannounced 'bonus' for siging up with their PR team.

Not to mention a WS title, WS MVP, 4 straight CyYoungs, and a Perfect game all came in an AZ uniform. He most certainly had his best years in AZ.

He will be Dback on unfortunately. You can thank the good ole guys upstairs for that one. To say his best years were in AZ over Seattle is debatable. He was a top pitcher in baseball for about 1993-2004. However 4 straight CY Youngs and a ring in Arizona is a pretty remarkable stretch and one you may not see for a while.

01/02 were the best years of his career.

Yes, cupcake, I can read stats too. I don't need your itemized list.

His best year was 97. His second best year was 2002. His third best year was 1995.

If anyone is getting butt hurt its you. The first person to resort to personal attacks is usually admitting defeat. Stats and facts don't lie mi amigo.
