Jerry Dipoto and company have only been on the job for a couple of months, but they have already made significant changes to the Seattle Mariners roster. The M’s are definitely a more athletic team, but they are still lacking a veteran presence with great on base skills. I believe Justin Morneau would make for a very intriguing addition this winter.
The 34-year-old was originally selected in the third round of the 1999 draft by the Minnesota Twins. After playing parts of four seasons in the minor leagues, Morneau made his big league debut in June of 2003.
