The Mariners have $11 million in cash they won’t be paying Robinson Cano now that he’s suspended. Smart money says they should spread it around the roster rather than focus on one replacement.
OAKLAND, Calif. — Six games down, 74 more to go before Robinson Cano returns to the Mariners lineup. And, yes, he will return to that lineup immediately.
In the days following his suspension, which stunned his teammates and much of the baseball world, the Mariners have said and done all the right things. Most important, they’ve won games despite the absence of their best overall hitter.
