Fornelli should fine himself... for being so damned good.

• Ozzie Guillen to Fine Himself - "Ozzie Guillen had quite the adventure on Thursday trying to return from his home in Miami to Baltimore in time for the White Sox game in Baltimore. He had made arrangements to fly on a private plane with his family, and Javier Vazquez's family to Baltimore.Well, the best laid plans...."

Seattle General Manager Bill Bavasi is none too happy with Samson as well, and it's safe to say the two probably won't be eating dinner together anytime soon..."


• Ichiro Signs His Extension - "We've all known about it for a few days now, well all of us except for Jeanne Zelasko that is, but Ichiro finally put pen to paper on that five-year contract extension of his. It's against the Mariners' team policy to disclose the financial aspects of the deal, but it's likely to be worth about $100 million..."


• Rich Hardeon is on the DL... Again - "I wasn't around yesterday to inform you, but in case you didn't know, Thursday was a lot like every other day of your life. The sun rose in the morning, it set in the evening, and in between the Athletics placed Rich Harden on the disabled list..."
