I never realized until today Root shows Everett games. I watched most of todays game. I recognized a few names and didn't see a high quality performance, but it was nice to know they are on.

Mariners sign RHP Brian Ellington to minors deal
Originally posted on MLB Trade Rumors | By Mark Polishuk | Last updated 8/1/19

The Mariners have signed right-hander Brian Ellington to a minor league contract. The news was announced by the independent American Association, as Ellington had been pitching for the league’s Kansas City T-Bones since being released from a previous minor league deal with the Red Sox back in June.

Ellington tossed 102 2/3 innings out of the Marlins’ bullpen from 2015 to '17, though after posting some good numbers in the first two of those seasons, his ERA ballooned to 7.25 (thanks in large part to a 7.1 BB/9 and 1.4 HR/9) over 44 2/3 frames in 2017. The righty hasn’t been back in the majors since, after spending an injury-shortened season in the Diamondbacks’ farm system and then tossing 19 combined innings for Boston’s Double-A and Triple-A affiliates this year.

Originally a 16th-round pick for the Marlins in 2012, Ellington’s 2017 struggles were a magnified version of the control issues he has battled for much of his career, as he has a 5.6 BB/9 over 275 1/3 career minor league innings. Those free passes come with a lot of missed bats (10.4 K/9) and some decent run prevention (3.96 ERA), though the home run problem was a new one, as Ellington has only an 0.5 HR/9 over his minor league career. Ellington could still have some upside the Mariners could yet unlock, though at worst he’ll be a depth reliever at Triple-A.

I read that with the Mike Leake Trade that Justin Dunn or Justus Sheffield are candidates to come up and replace him. I dont know how I feel about this Dunn has never pitched above AA and Sheffield although on a killing spree in AA hasnt pitched well above AA since being traded to us

I didn't know that until last night as well.
Wish they would take it on the road and give us some Traveler and Nut games as well

Obviously I don't want to put all of our eggs in the international signing basket, but this is good news considering that prior to this we hadn't signed a top-30 international prospect.

I don't think they have electricity in Arkansas.
