SEATTLE -- While the Mariners don't have a large group of youngsters taking part in winter ball this offseason, those that have gotten in extra work have made the most of their opportunities, including seven prospects who recently helped Peoria win the Arizona Fall League championship.
Outfielder Ian Miller, ranked by MLB Pipeline as the Mariners' No. 23 prospect, has continued on to the Mexican Winter League after his AFL experience and is off to a hot start for Culiacan, batting .423 (11-for-26) with three doubles and a home run in his first six games.
