12/03/2008 - Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Seattle Mariners Wednesday named Rick Adair pitching coach and John Wetteland bullpen coach.

The two additions to new manager Don Wakamatsu's 2009 staff join bench coach Ty Van Burkleo and first base coach Lee Tinsley, with the third base coach and hitting coach slots still undetermined.

Adair, 50, joins the Mariners after serving the last four seasons as the minor league pitching coordinator for the Texas Rangers. Adair had two previous stints as a major league pitching coach, working for the Cleveland Indians in 1992 and 1993 and the Detroit Tigers from September 12, 1996 through the 1999 campaign.

Wetteland, 42, was the Washington Nationals bullpen coach in 2006. Wetteland amassed a 48-45 record with 330 saves and 2.93 earned run average in 618 career games with the Dodgers, Expos, Yankees and Rangers.

Seattle finished the 2008 campaign 61-101, the worst record in the AL. The Mariners were the first club in major league history with a payroll of at least $100 million to lose 100 games.
