Mark Lowe Returns To The Seattle Mariners On A Minors Deal
After only one year completed on a two-year deal with the Detroit Tigers, Mark Lowe is back in blue with the Mariners on a minor league deal.
The 11-year major league veteran reliever signed a two-year deal with the Tigers for the 2016-17 season. After a rough first year and spring training, Lowe was released.
Lowe’s 2016 was far from respectable. He compiled a 7.11 ERA in 49.1 innings pitched out of the bullpen. His 2017 spring training wasn’t that great either. In nine grapefruit league games, Lowe threw 8.2 innings, striking out seven and garnering a 5.19 ERA.
All Mariner fans are quite familiar with him, though, and they know what he is capable of.
