The Mariners have the maximum amount of money available in the 2025 international pool ($7.6 million). Most, if not all, of that money would go to Sasaki if he comes to the Pacific Northwest. That would leave several international free agents in the wind.
Meant to bring that up
Seattle has been rumored be the suitors for MLB Pipeline's No. 5 2025 international prospect Yorger Bautista and No. 18 international prospect Kendry Martinez. The rumors about Martinez have come in the last month while the Mariners have been tied to Bautista since Jan. 2024.

Yes because if they did sign them the entire ownership group would have to eat Mac and Cheese and Cup O noodles and use 1 ply TP for at least a year.

Imagine being that wealthy and preferring to be hated by the entire fan base than have your net worth less than 1% lower. It's a fucking mental illness.
