The Seattle Mariners placed first baseman Ty France on irrevocable outright waivers on Sunday; France was originally acquired in a trade with the San Diego Padres in 2020.
With nine days to go before the trade deadline, the roster dominoes started to fall on Sunday for the Seattle Mariners.
Ty France has been placed on irrevocable outright waivers. If a team claims him, he is theirs. If he clears, he is still with the Mariners and can be outrighted to the minors. Because of service time, he can refuse the outright assignmentThe decision seems to be with the intention of moving on from France, but it's not quite as simple as that.
Divish quote-tweeted the report with an example of the Toronto Blue Jays doing this with Kevin Kiermaier. He was placed on waivers by Toronto on July 13 but wasn't claimed by another team and is still with the Blue Jays as a result. France came to the Mariners in a trade with the San Diego Padres on Aug. 31, 2020, that also netted Seattle 2024 All-Star Andres Munoz.
