Mariners hire Jeff Kingston as assistant GM

From Ryan Divish: Mariners hire Jeff Kingston as assistant GM

From the job duties is appears as if Kingston is the replacement for Pelekoudas, but he also adds experience in the numberic analysis and video scouting areas. I wonder if Blengino will be reporting to Kingston.  I also note with pleasure that Jack Z, merciless soul that he is, has no compunction about decimating the front office staff of our despised interleague rivals.

Did anyone ever start a poll as to when we should expect to see Pelekoudas show up in Philadelphia.  Though right now I have to say I think Pelekoudas may be more likely to show up in Kansas City as GMDM seems to have a hard-on for former Mariner personnel.

Pelekoudas

I’d almost put my money on him winding up in Phiiladelphia. If not there then Kansas City or Washington (Nationals).

I was looking at the Union Tribune to see what they had to say about Kingston ...

nothing.

but I did learn the Padres have the tallest pitching staff in the majors.

There was a blurb in the paper, but that's about it.

I don’t think it made it online. I’d type it in, but there’s nothing new there. Just what his old job was and what his new job is.

He's one of us

Econ major, not a former player, got into the game via the stats side of things, got experience in scouting while in San Diego, but his background is in quantifying things.
