      Just when it seemed like the Mariners were taking a step forward...

      I'm going to go out on a limb and say Bradley has one of his most productive years this coming year. He knows he needs to rebound and the spot light isn't exactly shinning in Seattle. Mariners may win that division this year.

      Could they make a run at Bay or Holliday now?

      No way, new owners already said they are only slightly increasing pay roll this season. It'd be a dream come true for either of them but no way it happens

      Fox has been gone for a couple of weeks now when the Cubs traded him and Miles to Oakland for a reliever and a couple of minor league prospects.

      Fukudome back to RF, where he belongs. Hoffpauir is a bench player at best.

      CF may be Fuld and Reed Johnson, if they resign him. They're also interested in Marlon Byrd, who is a free agent.

      Not to mention that I'll cringe every time Silva takes the mound. The guy has done nothing but throw BP for the Mariners the last two years, and his contract status is much worse than Bradley's.

      My guess is that was the only way anybody would take Miles is if the Cubs threw in Fox.

      But the Cubs are close to signing F.A. Marlon Byrd and Interested In Scott Podsednik

      His numbers look good on paper but I'm guessing he'll miss playing In Arlington.
