Mariners Sign Closer Zimmerman out of Non-Retirement

In what was probably just a coincidence, just after Brandon Morrow's first blown save of the season, the Mariners announced the signing of former Texas Rangers closer Jeff Zimmerman.

Zimmerman had never officially "retired", but he's been out of baseball since 2001. During that time, he may or may not have moved back to his hometown, become a substitute teacher, rocked out on his jet ski, and gotten his f*%& on.
