The offseason is heating up, and with it comes a flurry of moves that could reshape the landscape of Major League Baseball. The Mariners' recent trade for Austin Shenton and the DFA of JT Chargois has sparked quite a debate among fans. Is this a savvy depth move or a sign of deeper issues within the Mariners' front office?
Shenton, while not a household name, has shown promise with a solid minor league track record. But at 27, is he more of a project than a solution? And what does this say about the Mariners' strategy moving forward? Are they banking on his potential to develop into a reliable player, or is this just a stopgap measure?
On the flip side, Chargois has been a reliable arm in the bullpen, and many fans are scratching their heads over his departure. Was he truly expendable, or is this a miscalculation by the Mariners?
Let’s also not forget the broader implications of these moves. With teams like the Mets acquiring Jose Siri and the Royals showing interest in players like Alec Bohm and Taylor Ward, how do you see the market shaping up this offseason?
What bold predictions do you have for the upcoming season? Will the Mariners find success with their new acquisition, or will they regret letting Chargois go?
