The Seattle Post-Intelligencer’s John Hickey spoke recently with agent Scott Boras, who pushed Garret Anderson and Ivan Rodriguez as good fits for the Mariners.
”Garret knows the division’s pitching,” Boras said. ”He hits the West well, he’s good for young hitters to be around and it’s a good fit.” Anderson seems to make sense for the M’s, but Pudge isn’t exactly a perfect fit. The club already has catchers Jeff Clement, Kenji Johjima and Rob Johnson on the 40-man roster.
