When you lose 18 of your first 28 games, changes are inevitable. The Mariners’ have not had the start they hoped they would, and Jack Zduriencik and Lloyd McClendon have opted to shake some things up.
The Mariners have optioned Yoervis Medina and Tyler Olson to triple-A Tacoma. Center fielder Austin Jackson was placed on the 15-day disabled list this evening after rolling his ankle on Sunday afternoon in Houston. These moves cleared 3 spots on the M’s 25-man roster.
