Rest-of-Season Projections
Finds work in Japan
Marmolejos signed a contract Tuesday with the Rakuten Golden Eagles of Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball.
ANALYSIS
After being outrighted off the Mariners' 40-man roster in September and then electing free agency less than a month later, Marmolejos likely would have had to settle for a minor-league deal if he wanted to continue playing in affiliated ball in 2022. Rather than going that route, the 28-year-old will instead head overseas at what's likely a higher salary than he would have received on any minor-league deal. Though he mustered a lowly .573 OPS over 122 plate appearances with the Mariners in 2021, Marmolejos earned Triple-A West MVP honors after slashing .338/.439/.672 with 26 home runs across 83 games with Tacoma.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Many were asking "who?" when they saw Marmolejos' name in the Seattle lineup early on in 2020. Marmolejos reached Triple-A in the Washington organization but could never break through with the Nationals. He got a look with the Mariners, mostly against right-handed pitching, and the results were underwhelming to put it nicely. Multiple stud outfield prospects on their way and Marmolejos is not much of a roadblock.
