 Mike Sweeney-DH- MarinersJan. 29 - 8:33 pm et
Jon Paul Morosi of FOXSports.com reports that Mike Sweeney still wants to play this season.
Sweeney, 36, batted .281/.335/.442 with eight home runs and 34 RBI with the Mariners last season, but was bothered by his balky back early on. The .298 lifetime hitter is almost exclusively a designated hitter at this point, limiting the pool of teams who could afford to sign him, but he's still a very effective right-handed bat.

Mike Sweeney is batting .359/.405/.538 in the month of September.
Sweeney is doing a stellar job of making teams aware of his impending free agency. He's raised his batting average over 20 points in the last 19 games and said Saturday that he's finally having a blast. "I don’t remember playing a September and having this much fun," said the 36-year-old. "This has been the most enjoyable year of my career. We’ll see if there’s an opportunity to build upon it." It's not yet clear if the M's want him back for 2010.
