AL West: Time to get Rowdy in Seattle?

Seattle Mariners

The Mariners currently have Luke Raley projected to play first base, designated hitter, or outfield. That does not lock in a full-time first baseman. This spring, a surprise candidate has emerged with the Mariners. That surprise is non-roster invitee Rowdy Tellez.
