In vintage Jerry fashion, the Mariners made one of their most overlooked moves of the offseason while their fourth-year GM was in the hospital, flipping Carlos Santana for Edwin Encarnacion and a draft pick. One reason the move got little fanfare may be due to the fact that the M’s offered a player in Santana who had only been with the team for 10 days. Additionally, many thought Encarnacion was not long for the Mariners roster. In fact, several reports allege that the M’s haven’t stopped looking to flip the three-time all star.
