Mariners add Elia's expertise.
Byline: Larry Larue
Nov. 1--Lee Elia has spent close to 50 years in a major league uniform and will spend at least part of the 2008 season with the Seattle Mariners, who hired him Wednesday as an on-field consultant.
A Mariners coach twice under Lou Piniella -- from 1993-97, then again in 2001-2002 -- Elia will join the team for about half of spring training and then periodically throughout the regular season.
"It's impossible to think of a situation he hasn't been through," manager John McLaren said. "Having a person of his knowledge and experience to use as a sounding board and to offer advice, and constructive criticism, to me and my coaches can only help us to do a better job.
"I've had the opportunity to work with him both in Seattle and Tampa Bay, and know first hand what a keen baseball mind he has."
