www.mlbtraderumors.comSeattle Mariners apparently signed Colt Emerson to an eight-year deal worth a total of 95 million including a ninth-year option; the deal guarantees Emerson guaranteed money before a debut prior to his MLB debut; escalators that could push value higher could push value beyond $130 million.
