With Bedard's stock falling this year with injurys, combined with the possibility of posting mediocre numbers next year does that leave a chance for him to sign a reasonable extention? Or will he even be a member of the Mariners next year? Its hard to imagine them trading him now after the package they gave up to get him, but with a new G.M. his hands are clean of the situation as far as blame for pulling the trigger in the first place.
