Eppler and Dipoto both making news. 

JD has a bit of a controversy going on in Seattle after he essentially said the team had done the fans a favor or that fans were lucky that they didn't go into GO FOR IT MODE...  this after their catcher called the team out then apologized for it.

Long story short, people are complaining it's been 8 years, they have made the post-season once and that they were told the team would go for it when they had the foundation in place.

I mean, they signed Rodriguez long term, traded for and extended Castillo and signed a reigning AL Cy Young to a long term deal, it's not like they have been sitting on their hands.

Fans gonna fan.

Yeah, but then they traded their closer at the deadline.
