Go inside the dugout with the Seattle Mariners and Tacoma Rainiers

By losing outfielder Joe Borchard on waivers, the Mariners wind up getting nothing in the trade with the Chicago White Sox when they gave up pitcher Matt Thornton.
Then again, maybe the Mariners should scratch the White Sox off their list of teams to trade with. Think back to another time the teams traded, back in June of 2004. The Mariners gave Chicago pitcher Freddy Garcia and catcher Ben Davis while receiving catcher Miguel Olivio (since traded away), center fielder Jeremy Reed and shortstop Mike Morse.
Ouch.
