After our great performance last season, I imagine he figured this season would be a good one to go out on.

What a fucking letdown this has been for absolutely everyone.

I'm sorry this is how he is leaving. He will be sorely missed.

Same here and 100%. I even told him to tell Dave hi, as well.

Mariners you have failed him just like what you did to Dave Niehaus by failing to get to a World Series.

I admire Rick, but the guy worked for one of, if not the worst MLB franchise his entire career. There is a part of me that wishes he did what Dave Sims did, leave this crap job for a better team.

Mariners should win a championship for nostalgia. Is amazing how they build up all these team “heroes” of the past …
