Mariners Flirt With Jr. (Again); B/W Are The Children Our Future?
Posted By Jeff On February 12, 2009 @ 1:33 pm In characters, sports | Comments Disabled
The Mariners and Ken Griffey Jr. (aka the man who built Safeco Field) are thinking about getting back together [1]. Griffey is one of the most likeable players in the game and one of the most prolific home run hitters in baseball history, but will Seattle’s love affair with him still be hot and heavy now that the 39-year-old ball player is returning after having arthroscopic surgery on his left knee?
If the M’s are in a rebuilding mode, what does it say that they are investing in an aging and surgically-repaired player who is in the twilight of his career?
