Dustin Ackley struck out with the tying run on third to end an 0-for-5 night against the Rangers on Friday. The Mariners need to do something to shake things up a bit, and sending down Ackley is an option, even though he's not quite as deserving of the demotion as Justin Smoak. With the 0-for-5 tonight, his average is down to .230. His OPS is down nearly 140 points from where he finished his rookie season.
