Super excited to have Donovan on the squad! Let’s go Mariners
Love the comment about how to contribute to a new organization on day one, "You have 2 eyes, 2 ears and 1 mouth"… watch and listen.
7:00 in the background HAS to be Logan!!!!! Rolling!!!!!!!!
When is he going to actually play? 4 games into Spring Training and not a single at bat.
Wish he wouldn't have left STL
chillest dude ever?
You’re a Mariner now! Let’s go!!!
This dude is cool as a cucumber.
Can we get Julio on that machine where it only pitches down and away
Need matthew mcconaughey to play him in the future bio-pic
High IQ ball player
This is an amazing team fit. We often throw chemistry and personality fit out in pro sports, valuing ability instead, but unless you have just insane talent bad chemistry is a killer. Ms understand this.
He kinda reminds me of a southern Kelenic with long hair and beard lol
Seattle seems to have a type. I don’t know if it’s intentional, but they seem to bring in guys with a high baseball IQ and grinders. This guy sounds like he’ll get along with Naylor.
