SEATTLE (AP)—Mariners shortstop Yuniesky Betancourt was traded to Kansas City
on Friday, giving the Royals a versatile infielder and Seattle a pair of minor
league pitchers.
The 27-year-old Betancourt was hitting .250 with two homers and 22 RBIs in 63
games this season. He's been on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma after
straining his left hamstring, and will continue rehabbing at Double-A Northwest
Arkansas.
The Royals also received cash considerations, while the Mariners get
right-hander Danny Cortes and left-hander Derrick Saito. Cortes will report to
Double-A West Tenn and Saito will head to Class A Clinton.
“The opportunity presented itself for us to acquire a pair of talented arms
and as we move forward we felt this was the right thing to do at this time,”
Mariners general manager Jack Zduriencik said in a statement.
Betancourt fled his native Cuba on a makeshift raft five years ago and signed
with Seattle as a free agent in January 2005. He's hit .279 with 27 homers and
202 RBIs in 588 career games, and signed a three-year contract extension in
April 2007.
He's struggled with plate discipline this season, drawing only 10 walks in 224
at-bats. He also was benched twice this season by manager Don Wakamatsu for
lackluster play in the field.
The 22-year-old Cortes is 6-2 with a 3.12 ERA in his last 11 games, after
starting the season 0-4 for Northwest Arkansas. He was rated by Baseball
America as the Royals’top pitching prospect entering the spring.
The 21-year-old Saito is 2-6 with one save and a 4.26 ERA for Class A
Burlington.
