    Race and Mick for sure, though as the resident moog I have to poont out that Austin Jackson is not marginal, especially not for a team that has been running out Abe Almonte and James Jones in centerfield all year. Massive upgrade.

    Austin Jackson is the Steve Sarkisian of MLB center fielders:

    True.

    OTOH, James Jones doesn't even make that list. If Jackson's Sark then Jones was Gilby.

    The M's upgraded the position by about 2.5 wins, and that's assuming Jackson doesn't bounce back, which he has been in the process of.

    Also, Nick Franklin had no future with the M's. Was a very good trade.

    Don't get me wrong, they should still fire Jack Z. And Lincoln. Abundance.
