Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images The Seattle Mariners bullpen is known for the many successes plucked out of the pile, but in order to find the diamonds in the rough, you need to go through the rough first. It remains to be seen if Gregory Santos can be one of those sought after diamonds, another jeweled feather in the M’s bullpen cap, but there was a time where we dreamed on that potential. As long ago as last offseason.

Photo by Steph Chambers/Getty Images It feels a little mean to run Klein’s 40-man preview on the day he gets optioned to Triple-A Tacoma, but sometimes, that’s just how the scheduling ball falls. But it’s more likely than not that Klein, who looks like an old-timey barbershop pole decided to try being Amish, will be up in Seattle at some point this season, so it’s worth getting to know him.

Photo by Steph Chambers/Getty Images When asked which new relievers had stood out so far at camp, manager Dan Wilson said two players: journeyman Jesse Hahn, and Casey Legumina, a 27-year-old traded to the Mariners this off-season who played his high school ball just down the road in Chandler, AZ.

Photo by David Durochik/Diamond Images via Getty Images In an off-season with obvious needs or question marks at both second base and third base, one addition to the Seattle Mariners roster was Donovan Solano, who in January signed a one year major league deal with the club. A little surprising to some at the time, Solano was brought on not to work the keystone or the hot corner, but rather to be the short side platoon to Luke Raley at first base.

Joe Nicholson-Imagn Images Tyler Locklear is something of a forgotten man in the 2025 Mariners roster season math. Luke Raley seems poised to start the season at the position, and the M’s have several other corner bats in camp (Austin Shenton, Rowdy Tellez, Donovan Solano), all of whom have semi-interesting bat-first profiles. It doesn’t help that Locklear had a rotten 16-game debut in Seattle last year, posting a 58 wRC+ while striking out 40.7% of the time.

There are a few predictors of future success in baseball. One might be a blazing-fast heater in high school; another could be preternatural bat speed. But one thing that rarely translates: success in the Little League World Series. Over the 77-year history of the event, just 64 have played in MLB. (I guess that’s a decent ratio overall, but you know what I mean.)One of those players is Hagen Danner, whom the Mariners claimed in January of this year.

Photo by Luke Hales/Getty Images Cody Bolton is The Pile incarnate. He is the absolute model of a pitcher who’s been around a while, had enough success to be a plausible Major Leaguer, but not enough success to be anything approaching a sure thing. When the Mariners brought him into the fold last winter, your over/under expectation should have been about 20 replacement-level MLB innings. And that’s what he did.

Photo by David Durochik/Diamond Images via Getty Images It can be admittedly hard to come up with new words to say about a player that has been in the Mariner’s system so long, and at times been such a core part of the team identity. This year, perhaps, those words have been given to us by circumstance. This year, it would seem, is the time upon us to say good-byes and fond farewells to super-utility player Dylan Moore.

Photo by Aryanna Frank/MLB Photos via Getty Images How do you solve a problem like AAA backup catchers? How do you catch a cat, and box it down? I do not know if Erwin Schrödinger was ever a fan of baseball, but I do know I will always think of his feline based theoretical concepts when having to weigh the potential value of a player who may, or may not, see any playing time in the coming season (the last player to have me evoke the physicist was Evan White). Enter, Blake Hunt.

Photo by Steph Chambers/Getty Images In an uncharacteristically fallow summer for Seattle’s bullpen in recent years, Collin Snider’s 1.94 ERA over 41.2 IP last year was a present from Poseidon. Snider’s whiplash delivery helped him post massive improvements over two immensely forgettable campaigns with the Kansas City Royals.
