The Seattle Mariners have appointed a 36-year-old manager following a season that fell well short of expectations, USA TODAY Sports reported Tuesday. The hiring signals a youthful direction for the franchise as it looks to rebound from a disappointing campaign.
Details regarding the new manager's identity and background were not immediately specified in the initial report. The Mariners finished the recent season with a record that missed postseason contention, prompting the organization to make a change at the helm.
