With the Mariners announcing Tuesday they’ve reached agreement on a new deal with Felix Hernandez, 710 ESPN’s Bob Stelton and Dave Grosby are singing the team’s praises for getting the deal done.
In today’s video, Groz says the Mariners clearly know Felix better than anyone and made the right move despite some concerns that surfaced over the last few days about Hernandez’ elbow.
Bob says the Mariners have also sent a strong message to fans and free agents alike that the team is willing to open up its pocketbook and be a serious contender, which should pay dividends in the future as the team tries to lure more big name talent to town.
