Kevin Appier and Fernando Vina, who haven't played since 2004, agreed Monday to minor league contracts with the Seattle Mariners. Appier, a 38-year-old right-hander, has not pitched in a regular-season game since throwing one inning on April 23, 2004, for the Kansas City Royals against Minnesota. He has pitched in only two regular-season games and four innings in the last 29 months. The 16-year veteran, who has a 169-137 career record, had surgery in September 2003, to repair the flexor tendon in his right elbow. He attempted a comeback in 2004, but was 0-1 in two starts before going back on the disabled list April 24 for the rest of that season.
