Chairman Kenney Says No to Mariners

A little breaking news that came across the news wire today.





According to the Chicago Tribune staff writer Phil Rogers, Cubs Chairman Crane Kenney recently declined to give the Seattle Mariners permission to talk to Hendry about their vacant GM position.


The Mariners had hoped Hendry would be available because 2008 was the last guaranteed year of his contract.


Hendry holds an option for the 2009 season and rumors surrounding the GM have stated that a three year extension is being discussed, but no deal is in place yet.


The sale of the Chicago Cubs seems to be one factor that is holding up the extension of Hendry.
