After some controversy with a trade with the Braves Franzen quit as the Mariners General Manager.
You can see the trade that caused Franzen to leave in this link, (http://z13.invisionfree.com/BaseMogul_Junkies/index.php?showtopic=5921&st=0&#last).
The Mariners former GM franzen stated this as the full reason for him quitting, "Too many shady people in this league for me, not willing to
deal w/ it, not worth my time."
Some of the reactions too this are shown below.
W2B - "Are you serious? Shit that's weak."
FMGM - "So let me get this straight. An offer gets proposed (which actually looked more
like an idea being tossed out there given that it was in the form of a question
and not a statement), you jump the gun and post said offer without confirming it
or allowing further response from the other GM, and yet you call that GM shady?
Right...
I forgot who said it in chat, but if in 3 days, you believe
you've been in shady dealing with 4 teams already; then maybe its you who should
reconsider your approach. Maybe you shouldn't jump the gun to post a deal
without total confirmation or just based on something that seems implied, rather
than explicit."
