Agree with Kid, Saunders is going to see near full time AB. Keep in mind that Franklin Gutierrez has had health issues and Saunders is the only other outfielder than can cover center, so even if you believe his AB will be cut, he will be on the squad just for defense.

I see Jason Bay as a candidate to go, as well as Smoak (though Smoak would be a trade). I can't see the Mariners carrying both Carp and Wells either.

Then, factor in how quickly Zunino is ready which pushed Montero into more DH AB.

Good times.
