This date in Mariners transactions history 3-7: March was not too late to add a right-handed hitting outfielder in 1981. On this date that year the Ms got a former A.L. MVP Jeff Burroughs in exchange for minor league reliever Carlos Diaz. Burroughs was only here for that one strike shortened season before moving as a free agent to Oakland where he was reunited with his MVP year (1974 - Texas) manager Billy Martin for 1982. Diaz pitched parts of five seasons in the majors with pretty good years as a reliever for the Mets in 1983 and the Dodgers in 1985.
