Went down to Seattle to watch the weekend Bo Sox and Mariners games and that was fun. Lot's of Red Sox fans at the games so it made for good crowds. Safeco is a really nice park, last time I watched the M's in Seattle was against the Blue Jays in 93 in the Kingdome which was a terrible ball park. No doubt Safeco is a huge improvement even if those two balls Griffey hit today would have been home runs in the Kingdome.

I should add that if I've ever made a comment like Ricciardi is the dumbest GM in Baseball before....I'd have to retract it. The guy who used to run the Mariners, Bavasi I think, deserves that moniker. Looking at the salary's and how much useless money he's spent I couldn't believe it. Beltre, Sexson, Weaver, Carlos Silva, Bautista....Yikes!
