Two Offers

Ken Griffey, Jr. received offers from both the Mariners and Braves, and is expected to decide on Tuesday which he will accept.

For the past year or so, Griffey has talked as if Seattle were the one place he wanted to be, but the Braves made an attractive enough offer to get him to think about returning to the National League and staying just a short flight from Orlando. Griffey, in fact, has been campaigning for a job in Atlanta, the MLB.com report said. Griffey reportedly contacted Braves third baseman Chipper Jones and made sure Wren knew he was interested.

I think he would be better as a designated hitter right now, but I also understand his desire to be close to home.
