Fantasy Impact: Rodden had a solid spring, going 13-for-36 (.361) with two homers, two stolen bases, and six RBI in 20 games. The infielder was a fifth-round pick by Seattle in 2023 and has hit .274 with 21 home runs and 47 stolen bases in 206 career minor league contests. The Mariners are penciled in to go with Leo Rivas and Cole Young up the middle, both of whom do not have a lot of major league experience. So, an opportunity is there to join the big league roster if he hits well to start the year and if Young and/or Rivas struggle at the outset.

Connor Joe has been reassigned to minor league camp by the Seattle Mariners. (Source: Seattle Mariners on X)
Fantasy Impact: Joe has played parts of six seasons in the majors and is a career .239 hitter with 35 home runs in 480 games with the Giants, Rockies, Pirates, Padres, and Reds. Joe struggled to a .186 average in 80 plate appearances between San Diego and Cincinnati last season. He can play first base and both corner outfield positions, so his versatility and experience could come in handy at some point.
