Mariners Sign Jeanmar Gomez To Minor League Deal

By Connor Byrne | August 12, 2017 at 8:54pm CDT

The Mariners have signed reliever Jeanmar Gomez to a minor league contract, as Triple-A Tacoma broadcaster Mike Curto reports that the Rainiers added the right-hander to their roster on Saturday (Twitter link). Gomez opted out of his minors pact with the Brewers on Monday, according to KKTV 11 in Colorado Springs.

The 29-year-old Gomez signed with the Brewers less than a month ago, on July 15, and performed well with their Colorado Springs-based Triple-A affiliate. Gomez totaled 8 1/3 innings with the club and allowed two earned runs on seven hits and a walk, with seven strikeouts. He wasn’t nearly as effective at the major league level this year with the Phillies, who released him June 24. Philadelphia parted with Gomez after he turned in a 7.25 ERA across 22 1/3 innings and experienced a dip in his already low velocity, though he did post career-best strikeout and walk numbers (8.46 K/9 and 2.82 BB/9) and a 50.7 percent ground-ball rate.

If Gomez ultimately gets to Seattle, it’ll be his fourth major league club since he debuted with the Indians in 2010. Gomez was at his best with the Pirates from 2013-15, when he combined for 3.28 ERA and a 51.5 percent grounder rate in 142 2/3 innings. Last season, Gomez’s first in Philadelphia, he served as the team’s closer and continued to eat innings (68 2/3) and induce grounders (52 percent). Gomez fell out of favor, though, with an 8.33 ERA during the season’s second half. Overall, he registered a 4.85 ERA and 37 saves, earning him $4.2MM in his final year of arbitration eligibility.

    If Gomez is your long man or even your 7th inning guy, you’re doing all right. But Jeanmar isn’t now and never should have been a closer.

    is there a way to find out what teams have made the most additions in a calendar year? Dipoto has to be close to most ever. I’ll give him credit, He sure knows how to build depth

    My garbage man builds depth inside his truck every Tuesday and Friday. Quantity or Quality, what are we talking here when we speak of Dipoto building depth?

    Don’t forget: when Jerry came, our pitching, by far, was our strong point. Jerry took care of that……
