69!
Add another one to the Dipoto total
Are these guys good?
I read this as Gregory Soto at first and got pretty confused.
What a get for Seattle. Santos is nasty and was on the top of my offseason wishlist for my team. He’ll be awesome in the back end of that pen
An 11th team, Angels, has received another M’s player that started this offseason on the M’s 40-man roster with Evan White via a downstream trade with the Braves.
Santos is a pretty damn good pitcher. Bummed to lose him, but it makes sense to flip him for assets if we’re not competing next season. Definitely a sell high trade.
Really great to add another high leverage arm to Muñoz and Brash. That’s gotta be one of the better trios in the league.
I was told our roster was set after we traded away Geno and Kelenic but Jerry and Justin just keep going lol
Santos is good. This is a good get for Seattle
Chicago got Santos from the Giants so this is really just another entry in the storied Mariners-Giants trade pipeline with an extra step involved.
Dipoto needs a hobby. Also are the mariners planning on having no picks in the 24 draft?
Nice
Honestly love this trade for both sides but more for the White Sox. Nothing crazy but some solid pieces and another picks slot value to help with drafting.
Santos is very good but honestly the Mariners shit out great relievers that somehow disappear after a year so I never thought they would really need to trade for a reliever. Santos won’t be disappearing anytime soon though dudes filthy

When did I miss the memo about being able to trade picks now?
Edit: thanks all
I love this for us.
Santos has an arm
I hadn’t heard of him until this moment and now I’m disappointed the Yankees didn’t trade for him.
Prelander… When he retires he will be Postlander
Nice.
Santos seems like he may be the 3rd right behind Brash and Munoz.
Solid young reliever with a nice upside.
If Prelander Berroa can figure out his control he’ll be a great pitcher
Update.
This offseason, the Mariners have so far made a player trade with 10 of the other 29 teams (34.48%) – [Pirates](https://www.mlb.com/player/cody-bolton-675989), Rays, [Cardinals](https://www.mlb.com/player/riley-o-brien-676617), Red Sox, Diamondbacks, Braves, Giants, Twins, Royals, and now White Sox.

Trading draft picks…so hot right now
A nice draft pick for the Sox.
