Another bad first-round selection by former Seattle Mariners GM Jack Zduriencik
The Seattle Mariners had a solid farm system at this point in time, or so it seemed. The Mariners just selected Mike Zunino with the third overall pick in 2012 and he was set to be the franchise catcher.
The Mariners also had three-star pitching prospects: Danny Hultzen, Taijuan Walker, and James Paxton. It really seemed like the Seattle Mariners were on track to being competitors in the coming years.
