…well, not exactly. The Seattle Mariners are gearing up to take on their division rivals, the Oakland Athletics, this afternoon for a series finale. But during the pregame warm ups, left handed pitcher Tayler Saucedo decided to use his arm talents in a different way.
The Seattle Seahawks have concluded the preseason and have their 53 man roster set, but perhaps the Maple Valley native wants to make the case Pete Carroll should reconsider the quarterback position.

As impressive as Saucedo looks in his “tryout,” I believe the Seahawks feel confident about rolling with Geno Smith and Drew Lock. Besides, the Mariners are in much more need of Saucedo’s services, where he is having a solid year coming out of the bullpen.
This video is another fun example of the camaraderie shared between Seattle’s sports teams – such as Richard Sherman throwing out the first pitch to “kick off” this current homestand.
The Mariners have first pitch this afternoon at 1:10 pm, where they will look to cap off their fifth-straight series win. They will need it to keep pace with the Texas Rangers and Houston Astros, who share 1st place in the AL West with Seattle.
