The Mariners have outrighted their fourth player this off-season. Before they sent Ryan Weber to Tacoma this afternoon, the M’s had already sent Steve Clevenger, Charlie Furbush, and Ryan Cook to Tacoma through outrighting.
Weber was always a middle of the line pitcher throughout his minor league career. Before coming to Seattle, Weber featured in the Atlanta Braves minor league system.
Over the course of his eight years in the bus league, only twice did Weber have an ERA below 3.00. In 2011 he managed an ERA of 2.74 with the team’s single-A affiliates and then again in 2015 when he split time between the double-A and triple-A Braves -his ERA was 2.
