Record 74-88 5th in AL West (Mariners 1st with 95-67)

Notes:
Shawn Estes went from a 20-game winner to a 3-game winner
Pitching for the most part was outstanding, except for Percival who forgot how to throw a ball.
The batters left much to be desired despite Hunter, Butler and Erstad putting in fine seasons.
Stealing bags was a major issue as we went from being a top stealing team to one of the worst.
Overall, looks like we need an offensive re-tool
