The Mariners have some work to do on the pitching front, both starters and relievers, and names are coming off the board. Interesting to see the numbers on Hisashi Iwakuma.
The Dodgers are reported to have given him a 3 year deal worth $45 million. That is the number that some analysts believed he would get at the onset of free agency. The Mariners were interested in a two year deal, might have added an option for a third, but clearly did not feel comfortable with three years guaranteed.
One option in Plan B has emerged.
