One question:

So which was worse: The Mariners’ 2008 season or the Wall Street implosion?

Check the end of the 3rd paragraph – Triunfel is mentioned .

I’m glad this season is over. We can all turn the page for despair to hope now.

BTW, isn’t Triunfel a SS? I didn’t see him mentioned in the above stuff.

STFU and stay away along with Nintendo

If Nintendo took your advice we’d have no team at all to moan and bitch about and then what would you do with your life?

I know I’m getting WAY (light years) ahead of things here, but a triunfel-green-clement-beltre (PLEASE keep him) infield in 2011 would certainly help me get over missing out on Strasburg.

I know you’ve got the wedding coming up Dave – will you be posting an update to the Future 40 soon, or after the wedding?

The offense is in so much more trouble than is the pitching.

For sure, but the defense, too. The reports on Green I’ve seen say he has “very good range and a good arm.”

Ah…thinking of Triunfel makes me smile.

I’ve been wondering about Green–from what I’ve been hearing about him, given relative risk of position players vs. pitchers and relative depth in the farm system in both, I’ve been thinking I’d rather have him than Strasburg anyway. I’ve been wondering if that made me nuts, so this is an encouraging reference.

Getting a good GM will be the key to EVERYTHING here, that and Armstrong and Lincoln after they select the new GM need to STFU and stay away along with Nintendo.

The way the Nats intentionally lost that last game should really speak to how much they want Strasburg. Plus all the rumors of how they love the guy.

But if Green really has the upside of an Evan Longoria, I would prefer the Mariners get him rather than a pitcher anyway. The offense is in so much more trouble than is the pitching.
