Langerhans should have an immediate impact with the M's.
Hours before a series-clinching victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday, the Mariners announced they had traded utility man Mike Morse to the Washington Nationals. In exchange for Morse, Seattle received minor league outfielder Ryan Langerhans, a left-handed 29-year-old who is a former top prospect of the Atlanta Braves.
Morse had been all but eliminated from the Mariners’ future plans after injuring his shoulder and missing extended time in 2008. The shortstop/third baseman/outfielder had spent all of 2009 at Triple-A Tacoma, where he had posted a respectable batting line of .312/10/52 in 66 games this season.
