Seattle manager Scott Servais hopes his team can find success rebuilding with youth much the way the AL West rival Oakland Athletics have done

On Monday, Seattle Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto signaled to all in baseball that the M’s aren’t competing to end the longest playoff drought in American professional team sports for the foreseeable future after trading their best and most marketable asset. His next steps will determine how quickly the Mariners recover.

Imagine a Mariners starting rotation without its most talented pitcher going into the 2019 season. As part of general manager Jerry Dipoto’s offseason of change, which isn’t a teardown, a build-up or a reset, but a re-imagining of the roster, Seattle has traded talented, but at times enigmatic left-handed pitcher James Paxton to the New York Yankees in exchange for three prospects.

Marco Gonzales prodded enough to get the Seattle Mariners to commit to starting him one more time before the season ends on Sunday.

The deciding moment came just about two minutes after the first pitch had been thrown Monday night at Safeco Field. A result from a game 3,000 miles away — a Yankees victory over the Rays — made it official.

The Seattle Mariners have placed ace James Paxton on the disabled list with a forearm bruise, one day after the left-hander was struck by a line drive.

Seattle Mariners ace James Paxton was pulled in the first inning after being hit by a line drive and replaced by Felix Hernandez. Paxton allowed a leadoff home run to Oakland’s Marcus Semien and struck out Matt Chapman before Jed Lowrie lined a 2-1 pitch back up the middle. The ball appeared to hit Paxton on or near his pitching arm. Hernandez quickly began warming up to make his first career relief appearance following 398 starts.

The unrealistic possibility of James Paxton throwing another no-hitter against the Toronto Blue Jays this season was realized just one batter into Saturday night when Devon Travis yanked a curveball into the left-field corner for a one-out double. Paxton’s counterpart, veteran right-hander Marco Estrada, held the Mariners hitless for 6

James Paxton excelled in his return from the disabled list, Nelson Cruz had a two-run double in the sixth inning and the Seattle Mariners beat the Houston Astros 2-0 on Monday night.

Seattle Mariners left-hander James Paxton suffered a setback in his recovery from a lower back injury but hopes to be back on the mound for his next turn in the rotation. Paxton was expected to be activated off the disabled list and start against San Francisco in the opener of a brief two-game series. Seattle manager Scott Servais said Paxton was still experiencing soreness in his back after throwing a bullpen over the weekend and the decision was made to keep him on the DL.

With James Paxton’s and Felix Hernandez’ status in doubt at the moment, Mariners GM Jerry Dipoto should not drag his feet in acquiring proven rotation help.

Seattle also brought up three right-handed pitchers from Triple-A Tacoma – Christian Bergman, Casey Lawrence and Mike Morin.

After allowing a two-run homer to Albert Pujols, James Paxton began to fidget on the mound, moving his body, obviously feeling discomfort somewhere on his 6-5 frame. In an instant, manager Scott Servais and athletic trainer Matt Toth were out of the dugout and heading to the mound.
