Mariners manager Eric Wedge said he didn't put Dustin Ackley in the starting lineup Wednesday because he wants him to get better acclimated to the outfield. Wedge didn't think it was fair to put Ackley out there for Wednesday's matinee with no pre-game work time, so it sounds like he'll make his debut in the outfield on Friday. The 25-year-old has earned his way back to the majors after hitting .365/.472/.500 in 25 games with Triple-A Tacoma.
