The Mariners are about to designate utilityman Josh Wilson for assignment to make room for Mike Sweeney, according to Ryan Divish of the Tacoma News Tribune. Wilson has spent time with the D'Backs, Padres and Mariners this year, playing a variety of positions, including pitcher.
The 28-year-old appeared in six games for the Mariners, going hitless in two at bats. Because he pitched for the D'Backs and Padres, Wilson is probably the only position player in baseball who's allowed as many runs as he's driven in (three).
