The Mariners have added some offense this week. At least they are trying. They still need more offense and pitching. The Yankees lost another bench player who did provide some power off the bench.

Raul MFing Ibanez

Yeah, that's about right.

I expect Ibanez to show his age now that he is away from his "support group" in New York.

And the change in home ballparks is going to hurt as well.

So what does the Mariners line up look like now?

2B Dustin Ackley/Robert Andino

LF Michael Saunders/Mike Carp

1B Kendrys Morales/Justin Smoak

CA Jesus Montero/John Jaso

DH Jason Bay/Raul Ibanez

CF Franklin Gutierrez

3B Kyle Seager

RF Casper Wells

SS Brendan Ryan

Man they're crowded. And still not very good.

14 names and only 12 will make the team. I bet Smoak is gone.

Ibanez???

They should get a good one.

He was paid $1.1M last year and will get $2.75M from Seattle. He's not worth that much to NY. The guy will be 41 in June.
