Mariners receive trade inquiries on George Kirby ahead of deadline

The Seattle Mariners are receiving trade interest in pitcher George Kirby as the MLB trade deadline approaches. Kirby has been part of Seattle's rotation since being drafted in the first round in 2019 and has emerged as a key pitcher for the team. However, with the Mariners struggling to stay above.500 and ranking third in the AL West, there is speculation about significant roster changes. Teams have reportedly contacted the Mariners, indicating they value Kirby highly. The team's management may consider trading from their pitching depth to acquire stronger offensive players.
