Despite Rumors, Figgins Wants To Stay in Seattle

Veteran infielder Chone Figgins, the subject of considerable trade rumors over the past few days, left little doubt Saturday that he wants to remain with the Mariners. And the club sounds as if that feeling is mutual.

Greg Johns from Seattle Mariners.com tells us more.

Multiple reports that the Mariners were talking with the Oakland A's about a deal involving Kevin Kouzmanoff did nothing to dampen Figgins' outlook after he met with Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik at the start of the team's FanFest festivities at Safeco Field.
