The latest reports have the Mariners eyeing lefty, Brett Cecil.
Cecil, of the Toronto Blue Jays, has had his way with the M’s over the years. The M’s only batted .240 in thirteen matches aginst the lefty. Only four other AL teams had a lower batting average against Cecil when playing at least ten games with him as the opposing pitcher.
There was also only one team in the AL -the Houston Astros- that has more strikeouts per walks against them when Cecil takes the mound.
And Mariners fans remember that he has hurt their team as a reliever and a starter.
