There are many factors in Wak's firing, but I truly believe the horrible GM for the Mariners Jack Zduriencik was the genesis of most of the problems.
The idiot made bonehead transactions after Wakamatsu led the Mariners to a winning record last season after several seasons of losing ball...
Re-signing Ken Griffey Jr. to another season. The guy was through last year and from all the newspapers accounts I've read, in the incident where Griffey was allegedly asleep in the dugout when Wak wanted him to pinch hit- Griffey blamed Wakamatsu for leaking the info to the media. Now, Griffey denies it. However, it seems very strange that Griffey quit the team in the middle of the season...
Chone Figgins. What a fucking head case! Up until this year, I hadn't heard any negative things about him... But now, he'll be forever linked to the demise of Wakamatsu.
Milton Bradley- enough said... Once a head case, always a head case. Why did that moron Jack Z. even consider signing Bradley when he's caused nothing but problems everywhere he's played...
I really think the Mariners need to clean house. Fire Jack Z.. Hire Kim Ng, who they should have hired in the first place. Mariners CEO Howard Lincoln and President Chuck Armstrong should also be replaced by Nintendo...
Man, it's frustrating being a Mariners fan...
