The Mariners signed him to a one-year minor league deal worth $1 million.

Now, for some reason, I've always liked Arthur Rhodes.  He was never an effective starter, but once he shifted to the bullpen, he became pretty damn good.  In '97, he pitched 95 innings, had 102 strikeouts, won 10 games, and had an ERA of 3.02.  He was definitely a HUGE part of that last, good season.

He's been a bit of a journeyman since, having only one stellar year (2001, with Seattle).  Now he's 36, and he's going to try and help a bullpen that lost a very good set-up man.

Best of luck to you, Rhodes.  I'm pulling for ya.

Unless you're playing my Birds.  Then you're going down.
