Mariners bolster bullpen with Rzepczynski, Fien

The 31-year-old went 1-0 with a 2.64 ERA in 47 2/3 innings split between Oakland and Washington in 2016 and would fit well in a Mariners bullpen that lost southpaws Mike Montgomery and Vidal Nuno in trades over the past four months, while Charlie Furbush declined a Minor League outright as he recovers from shoulder surgery that will sideline him for the upcoming season.

Dipoto said Tuesday that a lefty reliever and an experienced starter were the two primary goals remaining as the club prepares for next week's Winter Meetings.
