Seattle Mariners' Division Rival Set to Lose Key Piece of Roster After Contract Decis

Anything that weakens the Texas Rangers is a good thing for the Seattle Mariners.

On Saturday, Texas Rangers veteran reliever David Robertson opted out of the final year of his contract. That's good news for the Seattle Mariners, as Robertson is a valued member of a bullpen who continues to be quite productive despite being 39 years old.

Robertson had been set to make $7 million in 2025 with Texas, so he's undoubtedly looking for a more lucrative contract this offseason. A 16-year veteran, Robertson has been well-traveled throughout his career. He's played for the New York Yankees, Chicago White Sox, Philadelphia Phillies, New York Mets, Tampa Bay Rays, Rangers, Chicago Cubs and Miami Marlins. He's gone 66-46 throughout his career with a 2.91 ERA. He's served as both a closer and a set-up man.
