Summary

The Seattle Mariners are exploring trade options for their starting pitchers as the August trade deadline approaches.

The Mariners currently hold a 48-49 record and sit second in the American League West, tied for the final wild card spot. If the struggles continue, General Manager Jerry Dipoto may be compelled to make significant moves before the deadline.
