Yusmeiro Petit: Claimed off Waivers by Mariners

Yusmeiro Petit, if used in the bullpen, can be a very useful righthanded arm in the Mariners bullpen and will be used frequently. Bullpen help was not a great priority for the Mariners, but Petit will be a good reliever. Ironically, the Diamondbacks have created a void in the bullpen by putting both Petit and Doug Slaten on waivers.
