King Felix vs. Jesse Chavez, 6:05pm
Happy Felix Day. Our valiant King was signed under the Pat Gillick regime, made his debut during Bill Bavasi’s tenure and signed his extension under Jack Zduriencik. Felix doesn’t seem to care much about the team’s front office, and I don’t think he should, but it’s frustrating to watch the way the M’s have wasted so much of Felix’s peak. At least Ichiro got to play a bit of playoff baseball. One of the most damning indictments of the GMZ era is that their record was so poor despite Felix pitching at or near Cy Young level every year.
