The Giants and Mariners are in agreement on a trade that will send left-hander Robbie Ray to the Giants, with outfielder Mitch Haniger and right-hander Anthony DeSclafani to the Mariners, per a report from Jeff Passan of ESPN. It’s an out-of-nowhere trade involving significant pieces going in both directions. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic confirms the deal and adds that the Mariners are working on a separate trade with the Rays. Rosenthal adds that the second trade will involve outfielder Luke Raley going to the Mariners in exchange for José Caballero, but that deal isn’t complete. He also adds that the M’s are getting cash in the deal. The Mariners have now announced that they have sent Ray to the Giants for Haniger, DeSclafani and cash considerations.
“As we continue to build out our team for 2024 and beyond, we feel this trade accomplishes a couple of our objectives,” said president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto in the official announcement. “In Mitch, we get a player we know well, and hold in very high regard, as another piece for our outfield, while Anthony – who can start or pitch out of the ‘pen – gives us depth in our pitching staff. And the deal allows us to put the best team possible on the field from Opening Day on.
“I do want to thank Robbie for his time in Seattle. On the field and in the clubhouse, he was a key part of taking us to the postseason in 2022 and in allowing us to remain in the race down to the final days in 2023. He provided leadership to our young pitchers that will be felt here for years to come. We wish he and his family nothing but the best in San Francisco.”
More to come.
