PEORIA, Ariz. -- The last time Milton Bradley and Eric Wedge were receiving paychecks from the same company, they butted heads so fiercely that their employer, the Cleveland Indians, had to pick between the two.
That was back in 2003, and the Indians wound up keeping Wedge and letting Bradley go. Fast forward to 2011. Wedge is the new manager of the Seattle Mariners and Bradley is the club's second highest-paid player.
Can the two coexist?
Based on the words each uttered Friday, the day before the Mariners start their full squad workout -- or try to; there's a 80-90 percent chance of rain -- there will be a sincere effort on both sides to work together.
They were full of complimentary praise for each other. Bradley wouldn't talk about his January arrest for making threats to his wife and Wedge said simply that issue is something that the outfielder would have to deal with.
