The Seattle Mariners have made a roster move involving outfielder Samad Taylor, announcing that he has been outrighted to Triple-A. This decision removes Taylor from the Mariners’ 40-man roster, signaling a shift in the team’s roster configuration as they continue to navigate the season. Taylor, who has shown versatility and promise both offensively and defensively, will now look to refine his game at the Triple-A level with the Tacoma Rainiers. This move reflects the Mariners’ ongoing efforts to balance depth and performance as they push forward in a competitive American League West race.
Mariners Make Roster Move Sending Samad Taylor to Triple A
In a recent roster adjustment, the Seattle Mariners have made the decision to outright Samad Taylor to their Triple-A affiliate. This move comes as the team looks to optimize its roster ahead of the upcoming stretch of the season. Taylor, known for his versatile infield skills and switch-hitting ability, will head to Tacoma to continue his development and provide depth for the organization at the minor league level.
Despite showing flashes of potential during his time with the big league club, Taylor struggled to secure consistent playing time amid the Mariners’ crowded infield rotation. The move allows the Mariners to free up a spot on the 40-man roster while keeping Taylor in the fold should he earn a recall later this year. His performance in Triple-A will be critical for determining any future contributions to the major league squad.
