Non Mariners/Around the MLB

Rather then muck up one or two threads. Good for the White Sox. Jealous that they have had a plan to be great down the line.

MLB Rumors: White Sox eye Bryce Harper, Manny Machado

Goldschmidt up for sale, but costly and can walk after next season.

The amazing part...they were high school teammates. That would be scary.

Rangers' Adrian Beltre announces retirement from baseball after 21 seasons

Sad to see Beltre retire. The mariners were stupid to let him go.

If its possible to make this worse, just think that they let Beltre walk and signed Figgins.

Beltre didn't hit that great for the Mariners, but he was fucking Babe Ruth on steroids and off the booze and gluttony compared to Figgins....

Beltre is the definition of how far an attitude can take you. He and Figgins do have a parallel as both signed huge contracts they really didn’t deserve. Beltre kept a positive attitude when his offense didn’t live up to the contract. Figgins mailed it in and fought with managers, players and the media. Beltre kept playing as good of 3B as anyone in history while trying to fix his swing (mostly approach) and he obviously eventually did and it sucks donkey nuts it wasn’t in Seattle.

Beltre struggled here, good defensive 3rd basemen but he wasn't hitting well at all, would always try to pull outside pitches and struck out all the dam time.... Then he leaves here and starts hitting better, go figure...

Felt like this guy didnt hit much except in clutch spots against the Mariners. Still just terrible news

Ex-MLB players Valbuena, Castillo killed in crash
