pitching prospect to Kade Anderson
had been struggling starting the
season however in his last start
he might have turned the corner.
This is his his first season at double A.
Last start he went six innings and threw
a perfect game. No walks or hits. In
fact he stuck out 11 batters as well
Let's see how he builds from here.
Ryan is 20 years old, second round pick
by the Mariners in 2024. He waited that
long to be drafted since most teams
figured he go to college first. The Mariners
gambled and he signed with them.
Right now the Mariners have a six man rotation. Kade Anderson may come up
in September if not sooner. Ryan maybe
called up next season or in 2028.
The Mariners have a solid six man rotation
plus you add Anderson and Sloan that
makes eight. It means the rotation could
reduce by three in the next two years.
Anderson's value besides being a very
good pitcher of the right he is the only
lefty. When he joins the Mariners he will
likely start in the third slot between four
right-handers.
The Mariners may trade two starters
which will be difficult to choose among
them. Luis Castillo is the only one in
his thirties and his contract goes through
2028. He is a good choice to trade though
be difficult since he has a no trade clause.
Logan Gilbert and George Kirby are the
closest to free agency. If the Mariners
want to trade one or the other it could
be in a trade. Gilbert and Cal Raleigh
have been buddies since they were drafted
in the same year so it could be difficult
to trade him.
Bryan Woo, Bryce Miller and Emerson Hancock are the next three coming along. Woo would be the one likely to stay.
Hancock who pitched in relief last September
could go back to the pen. Miller might be
a choice there to and would be difficult
to decide who would go.
Hancock is having a breakout season
and we could say the best starter this
season.
Whatever the case the Mariners will
get an offensive player to fit into
their lineup. This could be third base
or the outfield. At this point right
field. Arozarena who is having a
very good season will be a free agent
after the season of the Mariners
don't resign him or he is traded.
This is all interesting while the M's
are playing good ball now..
