The Seattle Mariners and first-round pick Jurrangelo Cijntje agreed to a full-value contract on Tuesday, pending a physical.
The Seattle Mariners began their draft by selecting one of the most intriguing prospects in this year's class.
Cijntje hasn't wasted any time taking some pointers from those in the Mariners organization and was in Arlington, Texas, during the All-Star break taking pointers from Seattle starter Logan Gilbert and reliever Andres Munoz.Cijntje's ability as a switch-pitcher makes him one of the most interesting prospects to follow out of the 2024 class.
Cijntje had a 3.67 ERA in 90.2 innings pitched this past season at Mississippi State. He throws in the mid-90s with his left arm and the upper-90s with his right. "Cijntje is probably the best to come along because he has good enough stuff throwing with either arm to at least create the potential for him to reach the majors as a true switch-pitch guy."
