"The Kid" will be back for one more season in 2010.
Reports are coming out of Seattle (and Chicago) that George Kenneth Griffey Jr. will be signing with the Seattle Mariners for the 2010 season.

It’s official. Ken Griffey Jr. is returning to the Seattle Mariners in 2010. This can only be good news for a team looking to carry over the momentum from 2009, when they rebounded from their first 100-loss season in 25 years and finished 85-77.
