Colt Emerson Takes Over Third Base

Seattle Mariners jumpstart their infield future by calling up 20-year-old Colt Emerson — the youngest Mariner to debut since Félix Hernández — to take over third base full-time.

Signed to an eight-year, $95M extension (potentially $130M), Emerson isn’t just filling a spot — he’s building the foundation for years to come, with a potential move to shortstop after J.P. Crawford’s contract expires. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
