Is that really the managers fault though? I don't pretend to know if Wakamatsu is a good manager or not, but if he doesn't have the lineup available to produce wins, can he be fully blamed for this? Maybe Seattle, like Toronto, should keep their ace pitchers and build a legitimately good team around them. Both franchises are going nowhere fast if they keep up this losing mentality.
