Veteran right hander Tomo Ohka has signed a minor league contract with the Mariners and will pitch in Tacoma. He is thought to be an insurance player in case Horacio Ramirez goes on the DL again. This is strictly speculation, but this move could mean that either the organization feels Feierabend is not ready for the big leagues or that he may be traded.
Ohka, in his 9th major league season, has played for the Red Sox, Expos, Brewers, Nationals, and Blue Jays. His best year by far was 2002 with Montreal when he went 13-8 with a 3.18 era in 192 innings, being one of two seasons where he reached double digit wins. If he does make it to the Mariners, don't expect him to have much success. This year with the Blue Jays, his era was 5.79 in only 56 innings of work.
Career Record: 50-63
Career ERA: 4.14
Career WHIP: 1.39
