Pitchers and catchers report to Peoria in exactly one month, but members of the Mariners front office already made a meaningful trip down to sunny Arizona.
As discussed by Jerry Dipoto and Aaron Goldsmith on this week’s episode of The Wheelhouse, preparation for the upcoming season continued with three days worth of meetings on player development.
Here’s Jerry on the what and why:
We put together a series of meetings that were being run by Andy McKay, our farm director, and by Lorena Martin, who’s now overseeing our High Performance department. And we brought together all our [Player Development], all our High Performance group, and a variety of front office personnel for what we call a continued education program.
