We were hyped to see Jarred Kelenic wearing a Seattle Mariners uniform, but that excitement quickly diminished. Fans became impatient and frustrated with the 21-year-olds struggles. Kelenic hit .096 and posted a -0.7 WAR in the 23 games he played for the Mariners.

It was clear that he needed more work in the minors and the team did the right thing by sending him down. The Seattle Mariners prospect is currently in Tacoma and contrary to what most fans were hoping for, Jarred Kelenic has struggled in Triple-A.
