Mariners Seek Best Available Player In Slim Draft
In the 15th annual summer free agent draft Seattle, without any Bob Horner-type prospects, targets the best available athlete. Hal Keller notes the team finished their first pick with options like Brad Komminsk and other outfield candidates while emphasizing the need for offensive capability. The draft spanned two phases with multiple teams holding two first-round picks as compensation, and the overall order listed includes Mets, Toronto, Atlanta, Oakland, and others through a long sequence of clubs.
