Not as big of a deal as it seems. Tacoma ends its season the 7th.

September call-ups are in three days. Rainiers play till Sept. 7th. So Zunino will be back
Olerud and Winfield had Zero! Just saying.
I don't think Will Clark did either. But I don't think Zunino's swing will ever be compared to any of those three.
313 non rehab PA's vs. 419 for Z. Good comparison just different results...unfortunately for us.
Zduriencik’s final move as GM was to option Mike Zunino to Triple-A, tweets Drayer. Zduriencik said the demotion was in Zunino’s best interest. “Just a breather, a break,” Zduriencik explained. “We would have liked to have done it sooner.” Zunino, of course, will likely be back before too long. Rosters expand on Sept. 1, and the Mariners’ Triple-A affiliate will see its regular season close on Sept. 7. In the meantime, John Hicks will be promoted and make his Major League debut.
419. That's pathetic. 313 for a guy who was born to swing a baseball bat vs. 419 for a guy who needed work based on his draft report. The whole thing is Z. Smoak needed to go down but Z didn't want to look bad so we ruined him. Same thing with Ackley. Hopefully we didn't ruin Zunino because he has just about everything else you want in a catcher.
LOL. More like "I got an earful about all my pathetic early first round selections and why they didn't develop so I made one last ditch effort to save my job by sending a guy down who should have been sent down 3 months ago. They fired me anyway."
Thanks for the unbiased comment...lol!
