SoDoMojo Open Q/A Thread

by Mariners General

Burning questions?

Crazy quandaries?

As a great man once said, free-floating anxieties?

You know you’ve got some.

Griffin, Harrison, and I will handle them with precision and with the best use of our cognitive facilities.

That’s another way of saying, “ask us questions about the Mariners and we will answer them.”

I just have myself to disagree with.

It happens more than you'd think.

meh ... disagreements between the writers makes for a good blog... why else would anyone else visit our site?

If you guys are going to run a Q&A thread you need to get your stories straight.

I theorize Mr. Clean...

How does Jack Zduriencik get his head so shiny?

"Options
If a player is on the 40-man roster but not on the active major league roster, he is said to be on optional assignment—his organization may freely move him between the major league club and the minor league club. If a player is on the 40-man roster and not the active 25 man roster for any part of more than three seasons (in which he spent 20 or more total days of service in the minors), he is out of options and may not be assigned to the minors without first clearing waivers. However, if a player has less than 5 years of professional experience, he may be optioned to the minors in a fourth season without being subject to waivers. If a major league player is ineligible for free agency and "has options" remaining, his team may option him to a minor league team without consequence. This is usually what is meant when players are "sent down" to the minors. Likewise, when a player on the 40-man roster is added to the active major league roster, he is "called up" to the majors."

Tui currently has 0.027 ML time in service.

They're going to sign him. I'd be shocked if they didn't. There really aren't any other decent options.

Thanks for doing this guys....

It's not looking like the Mariners will pick up Jack Wilson's option seeing as how they only have 2 days left. If they don't end up signing him, who are we lookin at?

Off the top of my head I'd say no, but I don't even know where you can find out for sure.

I'm 99% sure I already know the answer to this but since you guys are offering your services out there I might as well ask. Tui is not out of options yet is he?
