The Mariners have placed lefty starting pitcher Erik Bedard on the 15-day disabled list with stiffness in his left shoulder. Bedard has started 15 games for the Mariners this season and he is 6-4 with a 3.67 ERA and a 1.32 WHIP. This will hurt the Mariners who can’t be happy with Bedard’s performance this season. He’s on the trading block but there is no way that the Mariners will get back the caliber of players that they traded for him last winter. It also doesn’t help that he’s a tad fragile. The Mariners have recalled 26-year old righty Jared Wells to replace Bedard on the roster. Wells has pitched in 35 games in AAA (0 starts) this season and he is 1-3 with 15 saves, a 5.20 ERA and a 1.46 WHIP. Wells also has pitched in 2 games with the Padres this season and he is 0-0 with a 6.00 ERA and a 1.67 WHIP.
