The Seattle Mariners once again lost on Memorial Day, and have now fallen to a sickly 18 games under .500.  This is not the start that both management and fans thought they would have this year, and many are growing impatient with how the season has gone.  Many rumors have been flying about different trades, one major scenario involving Jarrod Washburn.  Another trade possibility that I would not be surprised to see in the next couple months if the Mariners struggles continue is that of Erik Bedard.  Erik Bedard was supposed to be a major acquisition in the offseason and has yet to fulfill the hype.  Other big names that may be moved are Adrian Beltre, Richie Sexson and Jose Vidro.  Check for more updates as they become available.
