Stash Danny Hultzen or Taijuan Walker?

CBSSports.com Fantasy — Mariners starting pitcher prospects Danny Hultzen and Taijuan Walker are both off to stellar starts this season -- opening up the possibility their major-league debuts might not be far off.

The most obvious sign is Hultzen is at Triple-A and Walker is at Double-A, so unless the Mariners absolutely see competition level not being a factor, then I don't see Walker getting...

Seattle Mariners prospect pitching depth goes beyond "Big Three"

Lookout Landing — The crème de la crème of the minor league system for the Seattle Mariners has been considered pitchers Taijuan Walker, Danny Hultzen and James Paxton for a while now. When right-hander Brandon Maurer broke out during the 2012 second half on his way to earning himself recognition as the Southern League's Most Outstanding Pitcher and the Seattle organization's Most Improved Player Award, that "Big Three" became the "Big Four" to many. Now that Maurer is in the big leagues - having earned his first big league win on Sunday - the focus has shifted back to Walker, Hultzen and Paxton. But th...
