    Will Olsen make the Mariners staff?

    After Garrett's brief stint in the windy city, how will he fair in Seattle?

    I think so, but if he doesn't learn to trust his stuff he won't last long no matter where he goes.

    Batista?
    Morrow/Rowland-Smith/Olson

    I'd say he has a pretty good shot.

    Is there a Garrett Olson Appreciation Thread on a Cubs board that I can post at?

    Plus Jarrod Washburn.

    Bill James projects Garrett Olson with a 2009 ERA at least .27 higher than any of the other seven candidates (and at least 1.32 higher than three), although Olson's projected ERA was presumably based on another year in Baltimore.

    Olson will have a hard time breaking into the Seattle rotation.

    Would the Orioles want him back for Felix Pie? Some Seattle fans think the Mariners should have traded Aaron Heilman for Felix Pie and Ronny Cedeno before Pie was shipped off to Baltimore.

    I'd check in on that one; this deal frosts the speculation that the acquisition of Olson was a prelude to the Cubs trading him for Peavy.
