Matt Brash In Or Out

The Mariners haven't said anything
about the status of Matt Brash other
than he wasn't throwing right now.

Speculation on social media Matt 
may miss some or all of the 2024
season. If that is the case who will
take his spot in the bullpen as far
as where he would pitch. Last year
many cases he would come into the
game with runners on base. If there
no outs or one out he would finish
that inning. If there were two outs
he may come out for another inning.
A lot depended on how many pitches
he threw.

The question if he is out for some
or all of the season who will come
in instead. Is that pitcher on the 
roster now or will the Mariners have
to acquire someone?

George Santos who the Mariners
acquired from the White Sox will
have to make a bigger impact as
long as he can stay healthy. Also 
Andre Munoz has missed time to.
Now it will be important they both
stay healthy whether Brash is in
or out.

Two pitchers the Mariners acquired
in the offseason could fit the bill.
Jackson Kowar they acquired in the
Jarred Kelenic trade from Atlanta
and Carlos Vargas from Arizona in
the Eugenio Suarez trade. The thing
is neither has a lot of major league
experience though they throw the
ball hard. 

The Mariners may have a few other
candidates to but none being overwhelming. The Mariners always
seem to find someone to come
through. We will have to see. The
hope is nothing serious with Brash.
Go M's.
