From DIII Baseball to the Seattle Mariners

from Mariners Down Under Podcast Hosted by Mariners Down Under

One of the newest members of the Seattle Mariners organisation joins Mariners Down Under. 2026 draft pick Chris Torres takes us through his journey from growing up in Massachusetts and playing multiple sports, to his high school career and beginning college baseball at Division III Eastern Connecticut State. We talk about making the jump to USC Upstate, becoming an important part of back-to-back Big South championship teams, the decision between Virginia Tech and professional baseball, draft day and what it felt like to officially become a Seattle Mariner. Chris also gives us an insight into the beginning of life in professional baseball and what he hopes to achieve as he develops within the Mariners organisation.
