Mariners Acquire Dee Gordon, Bonus Slot From Marlins

Dec 8, 2017 7:02 AM

The Miami Marlins have traded Dee Gordon and international slot money to the Seattle Mariners for minor leaguers Robert Dugger, Nick Neidert and Christopher Torres.

According to multiple sources, the Mariners are adding $1 million in slot money.

Seattle plans to play Gordon in center field.

"We're going to play Dee in center field," Jerry Dipoto said. "It's a conversation that's already occurred. We're very excited about bringing on this kind of athlete. ... His athletic ability is obvious to those who watch, but his ability to close ground, and more specifically, his launchability, that first-step burst that Dee gets is on par with the elite center fielders in baseball. We feel like that gives him a chance to be a separator in center field."

Gordon is owed $37 million in base salary through the 2020 season. In addition, the Mariners will hold a $14 million option for the 2021 season.
