Bavasi's A Worried, Hurried Man

"All our nerves are close to the skin right now" says Bill Bavasi of his Seattle charges, and by that I imagine he means the fans have been calling to let him know he's got some kind of nerve to pay Adrian Beltre $60 million over five years of this kind of production.
"As a club still in transition, we certainly like what we've added, but we still have a ways to go to make sure we're doing everything better," he told reporters at the team's Safeco Field media day. "We're optimists at heart and I think we're a better club on paper. But last year I felt we were a better club on paper, too, and we didn't perform at every position like we needed to contend."
So, are there problems in the lineup?
"I can go down the list and give you names of people that need to step it up, but I think we all know who those people are," [Manager Mike] Hargrove said. "But if they do, we feel like our runs scored total is going to increase dramatically."
Well, it's nice to know someone else is paying for Beltre's swing-and-misses...

Comments:
Thank god Bavasi is no longer calling the shots in Anaheim.
