Seth Martinez was claimed off waivers by the Seattle Mariners after being designated for assignment by the Miami Marlins. This marks his transition to four different teams in about four months, showcasing the challenges faced by the 30-year-old reliever. Martinez has a history of multi-inning relief work with a 3.93 ERA in the MLB. He is out of minor league options, which has contributed to his rapid movement between teams. Meanwhile, Jackson Kowar was placed on the 60-day injured list, extending his recovery from Tommy John surgery.
Seth Martinez's move to the Mariners marks his fourth organization in under four months, highlighting the volatility of his MLB career.
