Happy Sunday! How about the weather recently, huh? It feels like it’s finally becoming spring, which is great and all, but I’m already ready for summer.
Fortunately, Seattle is forecasted another sunny day tomorrow. If there’s one thing on this planet that’s better than links, it’s links with nice weather. I don't want to distract you from that gift, so without further ado, here are the links.
In Mariners News...
