Oh, and Bill Bavasi, I seriously hate you. Please stop working for my favorite baseball team.

So...on the radio... the beat writters sound like he didn't yell at the players at all. They had no idea what exactly was going on.

And seriously...the media didn't ask any questions....if they caught him screaming at Sexson for being a POS, yelling at vidro just cause, I'd be happy and approved. But he was screaming for no reason. WTF? React to a dick head reporter, don't just yell for no reason.

Buster Olney has a video up on ESPN.com where he describes the Mariners as a "powder keg", saying that someone "has to make a change."

Good stuff. His tone is that of a news anchor reporting that a nuclear device is coming for us.

That's pretty much what they said on "Mike and Mike" on ESPN. Nothing he said leads me to believe anything's going to happen any time soon, or that McLaren has any idea how best to handle the situation. He seems to be under the assumption that, if you lack talent, but play hard, your team will win.
