The offseason is long, and the narrative is constantly shifting. Up until yesterday one point of discussion being had by Mariners fans was which one of Taylor Trammell, Jarred Kelenic, or Cade Marlowe would win the left field roster spot out of Spring Training, with the team having only addressed that role partially in the free agent market by signing AJ Pollock as a platoon option. The last way any of us wanted that question answered (at least partially answered) is through injury. Unfortunately that seems to be the case for Trammell, as he is due to miss all of Spring Training and then some due to a broken bone in his hand that will require surgery.
