But boy this guy had problems from way back and now 2 suspensions. It's not surprising if Seattle may have felt enough was enough.Maybe but it also seems like they really need the pitching depth and are full up on DH types.

For everything involved, it's not like he's stalling - he gets in the box with a reasonable amount of time. The guys who drive me nuts are the ones who do everything (except run) at a snails pace. You probably aren't old enough but...Mickey Rivers.

Filia did return and graduated from UCLA which goes a long way towards abrogating the plagiarism suspension.

A shame, at minimum he would have been a fun follow. If it was the drug portion, at his age, this is likely the end of his career. International cap money would be nice but the Mariners aren't the typical team that would trade that.

Ugggh, this was a deal that I was excited about too. I wonder what it could have been to make Boston return him for what I assume is not much cash.

That's very disappointing.
I wonder if it was a short-term thing that showed up or a chronic and/or long-term thing. If it was a short-term thing, I don't think it would make much sense to call off the deal.
I wonder what exactly happened here. His physical condition isn't exactly preventing him from tearing the cover off the ball in AA. So I'm kind of puzzled - and very disappointed, too. I think he would have been a very nice acquisition for the future.

Seems like anyone would be a better addition to our system than just cash considerations. Could it be international money?

If this was drug related then Filia will be getting another suspension.

If it had been international bonus cap space, that would've been made very clear. The release said "cash considerations," which is also a clear thing.

I think it will be a long time before we see another player in our system with a scout confirmed 80 crotch grab. The sha-moan-uh that never was. You will be missed.

Coup de gras. Just that this human exists is enough for me.
