When the Mariners’ prospects come of age, and the team is prepared to make a move for banners, an enormous blank check will be handed to Jerry Dipoto.
One source from within the Mariners front office suggested this week that, likely two off-seasons from now, winter of 2021, Jerry Dipoto is going to be given the green light to spend copious amounts of money.
It will be a lavish, luxuriant off-season.
That same source confirmed the money being saved from payrolls in 2019, 2020, and to a lesser degree 2021, will be rolled into the 2021 and 2022 budgets and beyond.
