Mariners trade prospect Luiz Gohara for outfielder, reliever
Mariners GM Jerry Dipoto pulled off his eleventh trade of the 2016-17 offseason on Wednesday, and he might not be done yet. Dipoto shipped off prized pitching prospect Luiz Gohara to the Atlanta Braves along with 2016 fourth-round pick Thomas Burrows in exchange for right-handed reliever Shae Simmons and outfielder Mallex Smith. Right-hander Cody Martin was designated for assignment to make room for Simmons and Smith on Seattle's 40-man roster, but Smith might not be there for long.
