Tnetennba Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Caballero for Raley is sort of odd the closer I look. Maybe Haniger does more DHing and Raley starts in RF? IDK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than dumping useful players to shed salary, I have no idea what the Mariners are doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're carrying 3 catchers it seems: Raleigh as the starter, Garver (mostly DH, spot catch here and there) and Seby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about Seby. I read that they expected Garver to be the primary backup when he signed, so I was basing it on that. I really have no idea how Seby will factor in.

I think he may be the primary backup, but he isn’t just going to sit on the bench. He DH’d a good amount last year. They’re mostly signing him for his bat.

They have a pretty good outfield with Arozerena in Left, Siri in Center and Josh Lowe in RF, Harold Ramirez can also sub in LF and RF, Lowe is the guy I really wish was in RF for the Sox.

Might not be so surprising. Had a nice season in limited AB bWar 2.5 ,29 year old ,big guy may not have much time left in the OF as big as he is combined with his age. I haven't looked at his sprint speed but just guessing he's going to slow down pretty soon and be primarily a 1st basement . TB just doing what TB does . Made sure they had Palacios and DeLuca 1st. Trading Raley probably was well thought out in advance. Sold high before he hit 30 and starts to slow down and losses his OF versatility.
