The deal is similar to the 2009 contract that paid Griffey a base salary of $2 million and earned him $3.15 million total with incentives. "The framework of this year's contract is similar to last year's," Griffey's agent, Brian Goldberg, said by telephone from Cincinnati. "We're tickled pink that he's decided to come back,'' Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik said from the GMs meetings in Chicago. "He was such a positive role model, if you will, for a lot of players. He likes where we're headed and he likes what's going on here. He's a first-ballot Hall of Famer and the greatest player in Seattle Mariners history.'' Full Article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Good to hear. I've always been a fan of him. Hopefully he can stay healthy and continue hitting homeruns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Next Knick Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 I love this, Griffey would have been the best outfielder of all time if he wasn't so injury prone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
