Should Mariners deal Ichiro?
During last month's news conference announcing the firing of general manager Bill Bavasi, Mariners CEO Howard Lincoln said he was open to trading anyone on the team. If that's the case, the Mariners should deal Ichiro Suzuki by the July 31 deadline. If I'm Lincoln, I'm telling interim GM Lee Pelekoudas to gauge the interest in his All-Star right fielder to see if he can get an ace and/or prospects in return. Nothing against Ichiro, but isn't it time to blow this thing up and start over? Realizing they had no shot at an NBA championship, the Sonics dealt Ray Allen to Boston and began a process that will someday turn Oklahoma City into a perennial contender. When you blow things up, you don't hang on to your best player, especially one who will be 35 in October.

See what happens when you trade the fan favorite - you get run out of town.

How's 'bout some nymphomaniacs who come prepared with their own Ben Wa balls? That's what I've been sitting on this damn iceburg waiting for.
