I don't know if it's because they underachieved, or the new g.m. wants his own guy in there, or abundance.
It's the loser Mariners so it doesn't seem to matter who's managing.

Out of the four major sports baseball managers are by far the least important. NL managers have some value, because they have to manage a bullpen within the batting lineup, but in the AL, you have a DH. Basically, AL managers manage egos and call the occassional bunt, steal, or hit and run. Other than that, it's about 3 hours of ball scratching. General Managers are the critical piece, and hopefully, they found a good one. However, it's the Mariners, so probably not.

Totally agree, baseball managers don't have much of an effect on games. Mariners still have the same ownership, so the GM still sucks.

I liked Lloyd but it really is pretty irrelevant. Managers don't build the farm system which is the ultimate key to success in the MLB. Jack Z was the worst at that so I don't see how this GM could be a downgrade.

The GM didn't get the memo that blicks get 4 years no matter how shitty they are

The point here is that even Lou fucking Piniella himself couldn't lead this shit tier franchise to a World Series appearance.DerekJohnson said:

But he did win. The Fire Marshall's point was the Mariners would be losers no matter what. You and Boobs are doing some mega pressing this morning. Quite honestly, it's sad to see how far the two of you have fallen.PurpleJ said:
