The beginning of the end...

I believe Jack Wilson's days in Seattle are numbered. After making two errors on Wednesday, he came out of the game. After the game, Jack says that manager Eric Wedge removed him over the errors. Wedge only said that Jack was "a little hazy" and he took him out. Now it comes out that Jack took himself out of the game. This did not sit well with Wedge. Here is Eric's comments to the media today:

I don't think Jack will be around much longer. We might be seeing Dustin Ackley sooner than we thought. Tonight's opener will be special with the tribute to Dave Niehaus. In Dave's own words,
MY OH MY!!

Who needs a Shortstop?

If you or your favorite team are interested in obtaining one, please call Jack Zduriencik at the Seattle Mariners.

It seems as though Eric Wedge has decided to play Brendan Ryan as the starting shortstop, and move Jack Wilson to second. Jack has played 1,251 major league games at shortstop. He has not played a regular season game at second since his days at Oxnard Junior College in 1997.

I guess the writing is on the wall. If Jack doesn't have some kind of monster season, I believe Dustin Ackley will be in Seattle by mid season playing second. Jack will be dealt to somebody who will want him at the trade deadline. There is my look in to my crystal ball for the day. Anybody want their team to just trade for Jack right now??
