Show Notes

Seattle Mariners sign top prospect Colt Emerson to record-breaking contract, shattering previous record for a player with zero MLB service time. The eight-year, ninety-five million dollar deal includes a full no-trade clause, ninth-year club option, and potential incentives pushing the value over one hundred thirty million dollars. Emerson, ranked as baseballs number seven overall prospect, has shown elite hitting skills and solid defense at shortstop, with flexibility to play third base. He is expected to start the season in Triple-A before taking over for veteran J.P. Crawford, whose contract ends after this year. The Mariners aim to secure talent early, similar to their six-year extension with Evan White in 2019, hoping Emersons performance will define their future at the top of the infield.
