How would the Zito deal affect Seattle in such a way that the club here would get rid of their only truly marketable star? Also, SF still doesn't have any pitching depth, and that is the Mariners biggest need. I don't see dealing Ichiro for pitching to be an acceptable contingency plan.

A few weeks ago I launched my own blog about Seattle Sounders FC and Life in Puget Sound. I won't be by these parts often as my focus has changed. Sorry about the unannounced retirement.
