Tom Murphy

With the MLB trade deadline looming and the Seattle Mariners on the cusp of a playoff birth -- despite being in the midst of a "rebuilding" season -- here are 6 players they should consider unloading to stay the course and look towards long-term success.

Tom Murphy and Jacob Nottingham hit back-to-back home runs in the bottom of the third inning to start the scoring and give the Mariners a lead that they would never relinquish in a 5-0 win over the Texas Rangers tonight (May 27) at T-Mobile Park in Seattle.

The Seattle Mariners batters were stymied once again tonight (May 17) mustering just 4 hits and a lone run at the hand of starting pitcher Casey Mize and the Detroit Tigers in the first of a three-game home series at T-Mobile Park in Seattle.

The Seattle Mariners finally got some offense out of their much-maligned 5-9 batters and got another sterling performance from the arms in the bullpen en route to a 7-4 series-opening victory over the Los Angeles Angels at T-Mobile Park tonight (April 30).
