The Seattle Mariners signed Roenis Elias, Paul Sewald, and Jantzen Witte to minor league contracts. Yes, it is the same Roenis Elias you are thinking about.
This is Elias’ third stint with Seattle and he has had a pretty solid career in the MLB. He will be entering his 7th big league season with a 3.97 ERA. Four of those seasons have been with the Mariners.
