Mariner Coaches Enjoy Life as All Four Games are Snowed Out

When you don't have to worry about Willie Bloomquist getting a hit with your job on the line, well, life becomes a little easier.

For the third straight day the Mariners double header has been canceled, and this has apparently made the team's coaching staff a little giddy.

From the Times' Mariners blog:

"Hargrove drew the biggest laughs today when he tackled pitching coach Rafael Chaves in the snow and made sure to rub his face in the white stuff so he was covered from head to toe. Chaves had spent the past hour running around giddily throwing snowballs at anyone in the vicinity.

Third base coach Carlos Garcia also drew howls of laughter, though this could have been a serious problem, when he slipped walking down the dugout steps and wound up flat on his back. Garcia was wearing only a t-shirt at the time. Someone has to tell these Venezuelans about the downfalls of snow. Right now, they're having a blast."

Why not yuk it up you coaching geniuses, after all no matter how many games the Angels win they can't shake the M's in the loss column.

Lesson, never live in the Midwest.

The Mariners will play tomorrow morning in Boston.
