[srf1957]

It seems they're getting rid of 2 players that weren't much help . Mathias and Pollock Maybe the Giants will take pity on Dipto and give him someone useable .

 

[WizardHawk]

Pollock wasn't this years Winker, but was yet another Jerry bust. Wong is this years Toro and still needs to find a way off the roster.

Are we getting a this years Castillo kind of addition at some point? This team desperately needs a veteran clubhouse leader with a solid bat. Anything short of that and they will keep drifting into the abyss.

Mariners grade: C

This isn't going to go over well in Seattle -- with the fans or the players -- as it reeks of the Kendall Graveman trade from 2021 when the Mariners traded their then red-hot closer to the Astros while chasing a playoff spot. The players were vocally upset about that trade at the time so it will be interesting to see the reaction this time. Jerry's Dipoto's thinking is understandable, however, in the same division: The Rangers just added Max Scherzer and Jordan Montgomery and the Angels made several big moves as well and the reliever market was a seller's market. The Mariners are only 4.5 games out of the final wild card but have to jump over the Angels, Yankees, Red Sox and Astros or Blue Jays to get in. Not impossible, but FanGraphs puts their playoff odds at 16.7%. Plus, hard-throwing Andres Munoz is certainly capable of replacing Sewald and Matt Brash (76 K's in 43.1 IP) is a another power arm, although both have to show a little more moxie (both have a negative win probability added in 2023). The Seattle pen has been pretty reliable, but the depth will be tested and I can envision a final two months where the pen implodes.

Dipoto loves making these kinds of deals for what I'll call "25th man on the roster" types. Those guys are nice if they turn into Ty France, but more often they end up being Abraham Toro or Taylor Trammell or Shed Long. Rojas was decent with Arizona in 2021 and 2022, accumulating 4.0 bWAR over the two seasons, but he's hit .228/.292/.296 with no home runs in 189 at-bats. Maybe he replaces Kolten Wong, who has somehow been even worse, on the roster. Canzone debuted earlier this month after putting up gaudy numbers at Triple-A Reno: .354/.431/.634 with 16 home runs and nearly as many walks (39) as strikeouts (40). Impressive, but Reno is Coors Field-plus and we've seen Diamondbacks prospects who tore it up there struggle in the majors. He does bat left-handed, something the Mariners need, and it will be interesting to see if the Mariners will now trade away Teoscar Hernandez. Bliss was a second-round pick in 2021 out of Auburn, a second baseman who hit .358 at Double-A Amarillo before a recent move to Triple-A. Amarillo is another good place to hit, but Bliss is certainly interesting and could conceivably get a chance at the second-base job next season, a position Seattle has struggled to fill for years. It's a classic quantity-for-quality trade, but I'll take the quality side of things.

Canzone hit .354 with 16 HRs, 71 RBIs homers in AAA this year.

Just listened to a dude essentially compare him to Dan Vogelbach. I’ll hold judgement but it just seems like another team wanted him or Rojas and this was just the way to do it. Sewald is more valuable than two role players.
