Don't worry about untradeable players

With the Winter meetings about to begin, we all know trade talks will heat up. A crazy market and teams with lots of holes leads to more trade discussions than normal.

The local paper mentions a super secret list of untouchable players, but Mariner fans know to ignore this crazy talk.

All we have to do is think back to Jose Cruz Jr. He had the makings to be a fan favorite for many years. Young, talented, respectful. He was the M's FO wet dream.

And then he was touted by then GM Woody Woodward as untradeable.

We all know what happened next.

So when we hear the papers claim a player can't be traded, we all know better.

Besides, if Ken Griffy Jr. can be traded, do we really think a player 99% of all M's fans can't even spell is really untouchable.

Pllleeeassse.
