The Atlanta Braves and the Seattle Mariners completed their deal that they originally made on November 28 that sent Robert Whalen and Max Povse to the Mariners in exchange for Alex Jackson and a player to be named later. Well, that player has been announced.
The Mariners have sent 22-year-old left-handed pitcher Tyler Pike to Atlanta.
Pike was a 3rd round (126th overall) pick in the 2012 MLB draft out of Winter Haven High School in Florida. He was a part of the 2012 Rawlings-Perfect Game as a 3rd team All-American and he was on the Florida All Region 1st team.
