Mariners and Diamondbacks pull off 5-player trade (Yahoo Sports)

The Seattle Mariners traded right-handed pitcher Taijuan Walker and shortstop Ketel Marte to the Arizona Diamondbacks in exchange for shortstop Jean Segura and two prospects. Walker was considered one of the top young pitchers in the American League, but struggled with consistency. Marte had many of the same problems with consistency but had also become a liability in the field.
