On the 60 day IL but close to returning. 30yrs old, 3 yrs of control & only making 1.3m this year. Has Closer experience. What's it take to get him from Seattle? Is the remaining of 1.3m to much? Could be a good Bullpen arm for this year & possibly the Closer for the next 3 years.
Flores for Strickland

Flores for Strickland Yeah, let’s trade a top ten prospect at a premium position for a 30 year old injured reliever. Definitely trade a 18 year old that’s shown flashes of being a major league starting shortstop. Who needs him.

Well besides Strickland being about as mediocre as he can get with an xFIP of around 5 for the last 3 seasons with terrible peripherals, what's not to like?

He's on the 60-day DL, he has a three-year FIP over 4, and he's best known for his temper tantrums. But oooh that Closer ExperienceTM.
If the Mariners were like "we'd trade you Hunter Strickland for Gorkys Hernandez" I would say no. I would not option Colten Brewer or Ryan Weber to the minor leagues to open up a spot for Hunter Strickland.
