It feels dangerous to put out a prospect writeup right now with the Mariners clearly in a shopping mood for the impending trade deadline, yet here we are. With the departures of Brody Hopkins, Aidan Smith, Jonatan Clase, Jacob Sharp, and likely another minor league arm as a PTBNL, the farm has already thinned out considerably in the previous week of play. Despite these exits, the farm is still teeming with talent and will remain in healthy shape after the deadline, regardless of additional departures or not. This week’s roundup will focus more on the trade deadline and it’s implications on the farm, but will still feature a some bits on some current performers.
