Mariners To Sign Juan Nicasio
By Connor Byrne | December 13, 2017 at 4:19pm CDT
The Mariners have agreed to a two-year contract with free agent reliever Juan
Nicasio, pending a physical, per Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic (Twitter
link). Nicasio is a client of El Juego Sports Management.
The 31-year-old Nicasio, a former starter, drew interest from several teams
on the heels of his best full season as a reliever, in which he spent time
with the Pirates, Phillies and Cardinals. The hard-throwing Nicasio combined
for 72 1/3 innings across a National League-high 76 appearances with those
clubs and recorded a 2.61 ERA, adding 8.96 K/9 against 2.49 BB/9 and a 45.6
percent groundball rate.
