Robinson Cano stepped onto a baseball field as a Seattle Mariner for the first time Tuesday with high expectations, the demands that a $240 million contract can bring, and a piece of personal grooming that never was part of his grab bag in New York.
Officially liberated from the Yankees' ban on beards, Cano is wearing a growth that's similar to the one sported by Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz.
"It's a little different,'' Cano said, smiling as he stroked his chin. "Now I know I don't have to shave every two days. I'm going to keep it. Let's see how good I do this year with this.''
He was destined to attract a crowd on the day of Seattle's first full-squad workout of the spring, and several members of the national and New York media were here to chronicle the event. If the reporters were looking for a snippet of controversy, they didn't find it.
