Well .. Geoff Baker from seattle times is reporting there is a possible trade on the front lines between the pittsburgh pirates and the mariners. involving jack wilson and yuni bentacourt.
Seattle times article here
There isn't much else mentioned besides some vague statistical analysis.
While i like jack wilson and he's a huge defensive step up on the UZR front over bentacourt, i don't if i really like this trade. There has been alot of talk on USS Mariners about the need for a left handed infield bat and statisticlly i don't disagree. However, we don't have all the facts and i have to believe the idea of trying to get rid of bentacourt and his huge 8.5 million dollar salery isn't easy. Wilson has a contract through 2011 but has a buy out for the end of the season. lots to think about .... lots to consider.
