Mariners Sign Trevor Gott To Minor League Contract

By Mark Polishuk | February 23, 2025 at 5:24pm CDT

The Mariners signed right-hander Trevor Gott to a minor league deal, The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reports.  Gott’s contract includes an invitation to Seattle’s big league spring camp.

This is Gott’s second stint with the M’s, as he previously joined the club on a one-year, $1.2MM guaranteed deal back in November 2022.  Gott went on to post a 4.03 ERA across 29 innings for the Mariners in 2023 before he and fellow righty Chris Flexen were traded to the Mets in July 2023.  Gott then had a 4.34 ERA in another 29 innings with New York before he was non-tendered last offseason, leading to a one-year, $1.5MM contract with the Athletics.

However, Gott never officially played for the A’s during this one season in Oakland, as Gott tore his UCL during Spring Training and underwent Tommy John surgery in late March.  Given the usual 13-15 month recovery period for such procedures, Gott projects to be ready to return to a big league mound at some point in May or June, if all goes well with the rehab.

Even though Gott’s deal with Seattle is non-guaranteed, it counts as a good sign in Gott’s rehab that the Mariners felt comfortable to extend an offer in the latter stages of the recovery process.  It’s basically a no-risk investment for the M’s, with the upside of landing a veteran arm at a discount price if Gott recovers as expected.

Gott has suited up for six different teams over his eight seasons in the Show, which is a pretty typical journeyman resume for a reliever who has good but not great velocity and strikeout ability.  Gott mostly relies on a sinker/fastball mix with both pitches sitting around 95mph, and as his best, the 32-year-old has been able to deliver results and eat bullpen innings.  Over his last two healthy seasons, Gott had a 4.17 ERA, 23.7% strikeout rate, and 6.9% walk rate in 103 2/3 combined innings with the Brewers, Mariners, and Mets.

    Trevor Gott is a battle-tested veteran reliever whose resilience and experience make him a valuable bullpen asset. With a solid track record and a dependable sinker/fastball mix, he has consistently delivered results, and Seattle’s confidence in his recovery speaks to his potential impact once healthy.

    Just in case no one noticed (it wasn’t reported here on this site), the M’s just signed Rowdy Tellez to a minor league contract. A guy who looks like he can pummel the ball, and yet… Compares poorly to Jack Cust. Gott’s a better idea.

      The Tellez signing was reported on this site about 3 days ago.

    These minor signings would be met in a whole different tenor, IF ownership had followed through on their promises.
    Unfortunately, the has been, injury bounceback, lottery ticket types are all they are willing to “spend” on…
    Just sell already, take your billion dollar profit, and get someone that actually wants to compete for championships.

    Go John Stanton’s Net Worth! This is the year you win it all!!

    “Our goal was to set ourselves to be as flexible from an age, from a system and from a payroll perspective as we could in that 2021 launch,” ,,,That gives us incredible spending power in the free-agent market at a time when some of the best players of this generation might be available in free agency.”-Jerry DiPoto
