Mariners planning a full on rebuild

[jacksonianmarch]

Add them to the list of teams blowing it up. Dipoto is said to be weighing a full on rebuild. This means dealing off guys like Paxton, Diaz, Segura, Haniger, etc. sign of the times I guess. An 89 win club decides to blow it up rather than get better

It sounds like he's deciding on it. It's not decided, yet, right?

weighing on a full rebuild = planning on a full rebuild.

its the new alternate facts world we live in.

Sad!

I was going on the initial tweet by Passan. It was clarified later by Divish and another reporter as "weighing" rather than planning

On the other hand today marks the low point in my 24 years as a Seattle Mariners fan.

Mapping the low points of being a Mariners fan sounds a lot like arranging sand grains by size without a microscope. How can you decide which one is the worst when they're all so very, very bad?

It's time to just say the heck with it and become a Red Sox fan.

Why would he want to do that? We are trying to break him out of his baseball low, not sink him deeper.

nice shot

Well, Divish nailed this one. Segura on his way to Philly. Apparently Carlos Santana and JP Crawford are on their way to Seattle.

 

I see what the Mariners are doing here. They’re taking the best deals they can get while using their financial abilities to eat some bad deals. They’ll then start those bad contracts, try to recoup value and deal them off while eating some money to gain more assets. This is a really interesting rebuild. They might end up fielding the same or a higher payroll in 2019 while rebuilding
