Expect an announcement by tomorrow morning, but Don Wakamatsu is the new manager of the Mariners. An insider source just called and told me that the six other candidates will be advised shortly that they did not get the job and that Wakamatsu is the guy. Yes, King 5 anchor Paul Silvi gets credit for the initial "scoop" that Wakamatsu was the front-runner. The hiring is now going down. The team has signed off on the decision.
