As this season rolls along we may not be able to experience as much joy as we have in the first month. So let’s celebrate by handing out some Mariners-themed awards.
The Jay Buhner Award for Non-Baseball Contributions:
One thing that was great about Buhner was that he was seemingly everyone’s favorite and least favorite teammate. A well-known prankster and vocal leader, Buhner brought an element that every team needs. He broke up the monotony of a 162 game season and he made playing baseball more than just a job for his teammates.
