Hernandez keeps his throne!

With the terms to be announced, Felix Hernandez and the M's have agreed to avoid an arbitration hearing and are working out a new multi-year deal. Obviously, this will eat up a bit of the mariners team salary over the next few years, but its nice to see the team take a chance on a proven ace and hopefully a Cy Young contender for years to come. It's nice to see a bevy good players being brought in for several years (Figgins, Gutierrez, Hernandez), versus some of the bloated contracts of the past (Silva, Sexson, Batista).
