PEORIA, Ariz. — It’s a decision sure to irritate fantasy baseball owners who are looking to pick up some saves for their pun-named team from a low-round draft pick or waiver claim.

First name: Closer.
Middle name: By.
Last name: Committee.
The Mariners won’t have a designated player to take the ball in the ninth inning with a lead.
