Mariners
Maintaining Dialogue With Kendrys Morales
While ** agreement is close,
Mariners general manager Jack Zduriencik
tells Jon Heyman of CBS Sports that his team has maintained a
Dialogue With Kendrys Morales and agent Scott Boras.
While some believe that
Mariners ownership isn't happy
With Morales and Boras for turning down their $14.1MM qualifying offer earlier in the offseason, Zduriencik says there are ** grudges held.*
"It strictly has to do With where they're at (in negotiations) and where we're at,"*Zduriencik told Heyman.
Morales has been connected to his former team all offseason, but the most recent report on him prior to tonight's piece from Heyman stated that the
Mariners have "little or **" money left to spend on a**ther free agent.
Robinson Ca**, he of a ten-year, $240MM contract, has gone on record as stating that the he'd like to see his new club sign
Morales and
Ervin Santana. However, Santana has since agreed to a deal
With the Braves. Morales, for the time being, is working out at the Scott Boras Training Institute in Miami as he waits to find a home for the 2014 campaign.
