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.
