If we go by how the Mariners offense started the season, going 13-2, we have to say that Laker had done a bang-up job. Now the team is on a losing streak. But how much can he be blamed for the lack of hitting? Only time will tell.
Tim Laker is a former catcher who played in the major leagues for parts of eleven season. His major league career began with the Montreal Expos where he spent four years from 1992 thru 1995.
He then went to the Baltimore Orioles for one season in 1997. In 1998 he spent a season in Tampa Bay.
