Bob Dutton of the Tacoma News Tribune reports that the Mariners are interested in Nori Aoki.
"At this point," an industry source told Dutton, "there appears to be real interest (in Aoki) from the Mariners. Whether that leads to a deal is anybody’s guess." Aoki played well for the Giants this past season when healthy, hitting .287/.353/.380 slash line with 14 stolen bases in 93 games. He ended the year with concussion issues but reportedly entered the offseason with a clean bill of health. The Giants declined a $5.5 million option on Aoki earlier this month.

I have been hoping for this since last year. Make it so even though I prefer a RH bat for the OF.
