ANALYSIS
Vargas allowed three earned runs in 5.1 innings across six spring training games, and he will ultimately miss out on a spot in the Mariners' Opening Day bullpen. The 24-year-old righty turned in a 7.23 ERA and 2.11 WHIP across 42.1 innings with Arizona's Triple-A affiliate last season, and he will certainly need to improve upon those numbers before he gets called up to Seattle.
