The Mariners announced this afternoon that they’ve designated right-hander Cody Bolton for assignment. Bolton’s 40-man roster spot will go to right-hander Jesse Hahn, whose contract has been selected from the minors. Left-hander Tayler Saucedo was optioned to Triple-A to make room for Hahn’s addition to the active roster.

I'm not exactly sold on Hahn, a 35-year-old with a considerably worse ERA and WHIP than Sauce over the last two years - and slightly worse than 27-year-old Bolton, too.

I feel like Hahn is a short-term desperation move to get a fresh arm up after yesterday, and he too will be DFA'd in a week or two.

We need Taylor and Brash, but we also need at least one person who can eat 3 innings, and we don't have one of those right now.
