Moonshot Murakami has homered in three straight games!

Did the Mariners ever make an effort to sign this guy?
The fact that the White Six signed him tells me that nobody was trying hard to land the guy.
That doesn't alter my question though
I guess the M's didn't try to sign him.
Not sure how that implicates them as being incompetent. He also plays 1st base and the M's already have Naylor who is a better player than this guy.

$17 mil per year was quite a bit to risk on this guy. I can't believe the White Sox did it given where they're at. It's only two years. They're getting better but their actual competitive window probably doesn't start until after he's gone.
No way the Ms had a spot for him. This isn't the Old Cascade League where you can find ways to squeeze 3-4 first basemen onto the active lineup.

He actually has only played 1B + 2 games at DH. They say he's a 3B, butt.
