Mariners failed prospects

[unlvmariners]

A lot of times we sports fans talk about a "change of scenery", but really, how often does it even work?

I can understand bringing a pitcher to Safeco since it's a pitchers park, but I'm not sure if the change of scenery thing would apply when bringing a hitter to Seattle considering how anemic our offense has been the past few years.

Fact is you can never loose a "change of scenery" trade. It absolutely applies to hitters and Safeco especially when we have had so many "big time" prospects fail at the plate. Some hitting styles fit certain stadiums and some don't.

The beginning of the end for a pitcher.

Seems like a better fit for him. He has good stuff but doesnt seem to be mentally able to make it through a full start. First sign of trouble and he's toast.

All this and we still are playing better baseball than 23 other teams and have the 5th best record in the AL...not too bad with all those failures.
