Now is the time.
The Seattle Mariners have reached that point in a rebuild where it is now incumbent on General Manager Jerry Dipoto to reach into his resources at-hand to augment the product on the field.

If the Mariners want to compete at the highest level in 2022 and beyond, it’s time to start adding frontline talent.
