Colt Emerson Added to Mariners 40-Man Roster, Will Remain at Triple-A Tacoma "For the Time Being"
Seattle Mariners shortstop prospect Colt Emerson has officially been added to the team's 40-man roster but will remain at Triple-A Tacoma "for the time being," per Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. Emerson is widely considered one of the top prospects in all of baseball and signed a massive eight-year, $95 million contract extension with the Mariners on Tuesday. While the deal would seem to indicate that Seattle expects Emerson to be in the big leagues sooner rather than later, it appears as though the team does not plan to promote him immediately. Emerson, who turns 21 years old this July, reached Triple-A for 27 plate appearances at the end of 2025. However, he spent the majority of the year at High-A Everett and logged just 161 plate appearances with Double-A Arkansas. Upon his inevitable promotion to Seattle, Emerson will be a priority waiver wire target for fantasy managers due to his well-rounded profile at the plate.
