The Mariners need to move an outfielder or two this off-season, this we all know. But as we work our way through an off-season, one thing has become increasingly clear, at least to me. Seattle also needs to add an outfielder this off-season as well. Sounds odd right? Allow me to explain.
Yes, the Mariners have a glut of MLB ready outfielders on their 40-man roster. Or so we think. But to make the assumption that this is the case, we actually need to take a few leaps of faith. First, we need to believe, despite no evidence, that both Jake Fraley and Braden Bishop can hit big-league pitching enough to justify 400 or more PAs.
