6 years agoSeattle Mariners outfielder Jayson Werth will remain in the Mariners organization after the team extended his opt-out date due to Werth dealing with a hamstring injury. Werth is currently playing for Triple-A Tacoma in hopes of making it back to the big leagues at some point. Due to the injury, the Mariners have decided to extend his deal to give him a longer look. Werth, who has 229 career home runs, is hitting only .219 with four home runs and 15 runs batted in through 96 at-bats in the minors this season.--Joey C - RotoBaller
