Benoit, Nuno named Mariners' setup men

Second lefty Mike Montgomery is just transitioning from a starting role, and the Mariners are looking to 40-year-old non-roster invitee Joel Peralta to fill one of their right-handed roles, along with hard-throwing rookie Tony Zych.

"I feel good about our bullpen," Servais said. "We're going to need some guys to step up, and again, it's Spring Training and everybody has had their hiccup, which typically happens. We don't know how Mike Montgomery is going to handle things if he's in that spot. Obviously Joel Peralta has been through the wars, and we're hoping we've got a few more bullets left in his gun.
