Joe D Reid said:So, what then:
C: Zunino
1B: Hart
2B: Cano
SS: Miller
3B: Seager
RF: Almonte
CF: Ackley
LF: Saunders
DH: whoever sucks less between Smoak and Montero
1B/LF: Morrison
2B/SS: Franklin
UT: Bloomquist
That leaves the Mariners without a backup catcher, if they carry 13 pitchers. I don't blame them for signing Bloomquist. He sucks, but he can play every position on the field without mangling it.
I think Ackley, Franklin, or Saunders will be traded, and that the Mariners will probably regret that move.
But the Hart signing makes a lot of sense.
