Remember all that talk about a right elbow issue potentially derailing the Mariners? new seven-year, $175 million contract?extension?with staff ace Felix Hernandez? Don?t feel too bad if not because it?s a distant memory for the two main parties involved.
According to Greg Johns of MLB.com, Mariners general manager?Jack Zduriencik told reporters on Wednesday that Felix got a ?clean bill of health? from Mariners doctors during his pre-signing physical. ?Our doctors were very satisfied,? said Jack Z.
So the elbow thing was either extremely minor or a negotiating tactic. Whatever the case, the M?s have finalized the record extension and will hand the ball to ?King Felix? on Opening Day against the A?s.
The 26-year-old righty from Venezuela is now the highest-paid pitcher in baseball history.
