Good time for Dan to get a soft desk job in a lateral transition....don't know if that is possible, but I hope so.

I was hoping you were saying Wilson got fired. Thanks for the false hopes...

He will manage as long as people keep buying tickets. Inside information I am getting says no once cups Jerry's balls mid stoke quite like Dan does.

What is he going to be working on at his desk? He probably doesn't even know how to operate a computer. lol

I agree, but he's a loyal, mariner Alum.....he was a good catcher...he's not Jerry Dipoto. He can assist Dave Valle running the minor league catcher yearly orientation or something. Give him a concession stand 2nd deck like Edgar....you guys figure it out. We all know he can't handle press conferences nor dug outs.

We get rid of Garver and Refsnyder, add Ward and Donovan, and the offense gets even worse.

I guess we shouldn't be surprised in Ward's case, his career numbers at T-Mobile are awful. Dude hasn't done anything that he did with other teams, he couldn't even clear the LC wall with his best shot. Last year I went to the game against the Angels where Kirby had 14Ks and he blasted one over both bullpens.

So basically all of Jerry’s signings this last year (after Geno) have been garbage.

Absolutely, instead of the Midas Touch he's had the Sadim Touch where instead of gold it turns to shit.
