The franchise debuted in 1977 and didn't post its first winning season until 1990, so there were certainly plenty of lean years. But 2010 was much more disappointing because even the most pessimistic fans in Seattle couldn't have seen it coming. The Mariners went 85-77 in 2009, their first season under general manager Jack Zduriencik, and optimism reigned only one year after they became the first team with a $100 million payroll to lose more than 100 games. When Zduriencik signed free agent Chone Figgins and traded for Cliff Lee last offseason, many analysts picked Seattle to win the American League West. But everything went wrong for the Mariners. Local writers reported that franchise icon Ken Griffey Jr. was caught napping in the clubhouse when he was needed for pinch-hitting duty during a game in May, and he retired in June after batting .184/.250/.204 in 98 at-bats on the season. Figgins started slowly and never got on track, and he got into a dugout fight with manager Don Wakamatsu in July. Wakamatsu and three big league coaches were fired in early August. The Mariners went 42-70 under Wakamatsu and 19-31 under interim replacement Daren Brown, losing 100 games for the fifth time in franchise history. While Ichiro Suzuki became the first player ever to record 10 straight 200-hit seasons, Seattle scored just 513 runs, the lowest full-season total for an AL team since the introduction of the designated hitter. Righthander Felix Hernandez won the Cy Young Award, yet went 13-12 because he was saddled with poor run support and a shaky bullpen. By July it was obvious the Mariners would need to trade Lee, who was headed toward free agency, but even that ended up backfiring. The Yankees thought they had worked out a deal that would have sent elite hitting prospect Jesus Montero and two other players to Seattle for Lee, but that deal fell through and the Mariners ended up shipping Lee and Mark Lowe to the Rangers for Justin Smoak, righthanders Blake Beavan and Josh Lueke and second baseman Matt Lawson. Lueke was charged with rape and sodomy in a May 2008 incident and served 42 days in jail before reaching a plea deal for lesser charges—false imprisonment with violence—that included three years' felony probation. His past was common knowledge within the industry, but Zduriencik contended he didn't know the extent of Lueke's legal troubles when he made the deal. The Mariners, who have worked with groups opposing violence toward women, drew fire for acquiring Lueke, and director of pro scouting Carmen Fusco took the fall when he was fired in September. The franchise took another hit on Nov. 10, when Hall of Famer broadcaster Dave Niehaus died of a heart attack. It was a tragic end to an already depressing season. The Mariners do have hope for the future. Hernandez is the best pitcher in baseball, and Ichiro (who also won his 10th straight Gold Glove) shows no signs of slowing down. Smoak and second baseman Dustin Ackley, the system's No. 1 prospect, should help rejuvenate the lineup in the next couple of years, and righthander Michael Pineda eventually should slot in right behind Hernandez in the rotation. Seattle may not be able to contend under new manager Eric Wedge in 2011, but the season can't be as disheartening as the one that preceded it. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 59.115.183.11 ※ 編輯: GarySanchez 來自: 59.115.183.11 (12/07 00:07)
