Who’s the NBA’s GOAT? Mariners Spring Training

The roles that Dipoto were looking for are fulfilled with these players who have had recent success but may need slight retooling. Spring training offers time to iron out some kinks.

The Blue Jays surprisingly moved on from outfielder Teoscar Hernåndez in November and he will take the reins from Mitch Haniger for the Mariners. Hernåndez brings over two silver sluggers from Toronto as well as an All-Star appearance infrom 2021.

A.J. Pollock signed in January on a one 1-year deal worth $7 million and is a flexible piece in the outfield. Pollock posted a 0.245 batting averageBA last season along with 14 home runs.

Kolten Wong is a needed replacement for Adam Frasier at second base. He is gifted on the defensive end winning two back-to-back gold gloves in 2019 and 2020, even in spite of his career-high errors (17) in 2022.
