Seattle Mariners Make Trade or Sign Soon

I am sure the Seattle Mariners fans wished the team would make a move before 

Christmas but likely not happening. I 

wish they would make a statement that

they were working on something. A bad

off-season so far to say the least. At 

least something happens before 2024.

A look at the Mariners top five prospects

currently. Number one is Cole Young 

drafted at shortstop though may be the

Mariners future second baseman. Projected to be a Mariner in 2026. He 

played first half at Modesto followed 

by Everett. He probably start at Everett

this coming season. He is likely promoted

sometime to double A Arkansas. He 

could be a Mariner in 2025.

Harry Ford catcher is projected to be

a Mariner in 2025. The question at catcher

or elsewhere.

Number 3 is outfielder Gabriel Gonzalez

projected for 2025. So the Mariners could

have two or three position players the 

same year. He played at Modesto then

Everett where he likely start this coming

season.

Number four is shortstop Colt Emerson

number one pick in 2023. He is projected

for 2027. He played 16 games for Modesto

in 2023. Likely start 2024 at Modesto and

move to Everett if Young goes to Arkansas.

Number Five is infielder Michael Arroyo. He could play second, third or shortstop. Could be a super utility player if not a starter.  He played most of 2023 at Modesto. He could

play there in Modesto again before going

to Everett before 2024 is over. He is 

projected for 2027 as well.

Having three of the Mariners top five prospects in the infield it would not 

surprise me if at least one of them

is traded before any of this time.

The Mariners have two other shortstops

listed as top prospects at seven and ten.

Go M's.
