As the Dustin Ackley era continues to sputter in Seattle, a change of scenery may be in order
Posted May 19, 2015
That the curtain is closing on the Dustin Ackley era in Seattle, such as it was, seems inevitable. He now induces that level of visceral scorn reserved only for the most desperately struggling Mariners. Not quite Chone Figgins territory, but descending quickly. What is more difficult to fathom is how it got to this point, where every time Lloyd McClendon writes Ackley’s name in the lineup, it seems to be either a reprieve, or a last rite.
