Seattle, Rays start trading season with six player deal

The M's and Rays have reportedly made a six player trade that sends Brad Miller to Tampa

The Seattle Mariners and Tampa Bay Rays have made the first big trade of the offseason, with the M's sending Brad Miller, Danny Farquhar and Logan Morrison to the Rays for Nate Karns, Boog Powell and C.J. Riefenhauser.

This is a weird deal...Miller is the poor man's Ben Zobrist, a guy who can play a variety of positions and adds versatility, while Farquhar throws hard, had a couple of good years in the M's pen, but struggled badly in 2015.
