Sauryn Lao, recently designated for assignment by the Mariners, went unclaimed and has been assigned to Triple-A Tacoma as a depth option. The 25-year-old pitcher, who transitioned from infield to mound this year, boasts a 3.61 ERA over 122 minor league innings, including an impressive 2.25 ERA in 12 innings at Tacoma. Despite being new to pitching, Lao made his MLB debut with Seattle, showcasing his potential. With the Mariners' bullpen performing below expectations, there's a pathway for Lao to return to the big leagues if he maintains his strong minor league performance.
Lao's trajectory in baseball has shifted after transitioning from infield to pitching, now showcasing potential depth for the Mariners as he continues to develop.
