Player Notes
December 2, 2008
The Mariners have talked to the agent of Ken Griffey Jr., according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. GM Jack Zduriencik said, "We have had conversations about Ken. Is there anything concrete? Is there an offer made? No. It's nothing more than an inquiry at this point. Could he be a viable fit? Of course. Do we have interest in Ken Griffey? I'm not prepared to say that."

Our View:We now know that one of the three AL clubs that inquired about Griffey is the Mariners. There are also three NL clubs interested in him. He is feeling good following his left knee surgery.
November 29, 2008
With nine known teams interested in his services, and his knee feeling good, Ken Griffey Jr. is looking at playing a couple of more seasons, according to WhiteSox.com.

Our View:Griffey has six American League clubs and three National League clubs interested in him. He had surgery on his left knee and it apparently is feeling very good.
November 25, 2008
Ken Griffey Jr. is a hot target as nine MLB clubs have displayed interest in him, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Our View:None of the clubs were disclosed, but six are in the AL and the other three the NL. One of the AL clubs could potentially be the Mariners, as there was a rumor circulating that he was considering a return to the Emerald City.
November 18, 2008
The doctor of Ken Griffey Jr. believes his knee will be in better shape in 2009, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports.

Our View:He will turn 39 on Friday, and wants to play for a team that plays or trains near his home in Orlando, Florida. The Braves and Astros train near the Orlando area, and play in cities that are a short plane ride away. There was a rumor that he may return to Seattle, but that seems unlikely, especially since the Mariners aren't viewed as a contender.
November 4, 2008
It is now official, Ken Griffey Jr. has filed for free agency on Tuesday, according to Whitesox.com.

Our View:This has been known for a while that Jr, would be leaving Chicago. There has been some rumblings that the kid might make a return trip where it all started, Seattle.
