SEATTLE -- Ryon Healy might be new to the Mariners, but he knows the story. Seattle has the longest postseason drought in Major League Baseball -- and he'd love to be part of the group that ends the dry spell.

"Everyone is excited about the opportunity we have with the talent, the focus and not only the veteran leadership, but the young core that is already here and has some big league experience.
