Over the past few months, we here at the website have been in trade mode, trying to find the perfect player for the Mariners. The mission is simple: end the drought. We have examined countless players and will continue to do so throughout the month.
For the first time since 2014, the Mariners are undoubtedly buyers. Over the first 2 full-seasons of Jerry Dipoto’s tenure, the team has largely been caught in the middle. The trades that Dipoto has made around this time of year can hardly be deemed moves of a “buyer”.
In year 1, he acquired Ariel Miranda for Wade Miley.
