Major upset in American League MVP vote: Joe Mauer not unanimous

He and I had the two votes from Seattle. I like and respect Keizo -- he's been covering the Mariners and major-league baseball for nine years, and knows his stuff as well as anyone around.

"Bay" Players to the Seattle Mariners' City on the "Sound?"

Jason Bay. Lyle Overbay. No, they don't play for Tampa Bay. But they may be playing for the city on the "Sound," if the Seattle Mariners, or at least Mariners writers like Andy Augur, have their way.

When A Good Deal Stops Being One

For years, we've been banging the drum of marginal value as tenet of roster construction, using metrics like Wins Above Replacement to show the impact a player will actually have on the team and the associated cost that the team should be willing to pay for that performance.

The Veteran Catcher

Since Kenji decided to head back to Japan, one of the things that Jack said to the media afterwards has gained a decent amount of attention, is that this creates a hole where they're probably going to have to bring in a veteran catcher this winter.

Zduriencik's tasks start with Felix, end at Jr.

While the Mariners celebrated their season Sunday with an impromptu Love Boat parade around Safeco Field, it was easy to forget that the team that enjoyed such rare camaraderie in 2009 won't resemble the team that returns in 2010.

Baker: M's use stats to reveal gems, such as Franklin Gutierrez

From The Twilight Zone to Ultimate Zone Rating...it spits out "Franklin, Franklin, Franklin!" But it's on the defensive side where he has been off-the-charts. Gutierrez's score of 27.1 runs saved in the newfangled Ultimate Zone Rating stat is the best of any player in baseball by a huge margin.
