WTF?

Pretty sure they're signing him as a utility infielder, which is actually pretty good. In his last 2 years of utility play, he's hit as well as just about any Mariner for average. Plus, he's an excellent guy for the young kids in the infield to learn from.
As a utility guy, I think this is actually a good signing.
However, if the FO tries to paint this as one of the "big" moves when all is said and done, then yeah, that would be truly awful.
Oh joy......the pride of Port Orchard is back...
Still an upgrade over Ryan though.

ehh, not too sure about that. They're both bad hitters (though Ryan is worse), but at least Ryan can play excellent defense at SS. Bloomquist isn't even a good defender.
Bloomquist is a career .271 hitter compared to Ryans .237. Wouldn't say Bloomquist is a "bad" hitter.
With Bloomquist you get decent everything not great. With Ryan you get Great D and complete dogshit at the plate. Take your pick
