Andy Martino of SNY reports that the Mariners have agreed to a deal to acquire Ryne Stanek from the Mariners.
Martino notes that the M’s will receive minor league outfielder Rhylan Thomas in return. The 33-year-old hurler has been a fixture in the late innings for the Mariners this season, posting a 4.38 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and a 44/17 K/BB ratio across 39 innings while recording seven saves. The Mariners acquired Yimi Garcia from the Blue Jays on Friday, who will apparently take over Stanek’s role in the bullpen.
