Mariners' Blake Hunt: Passes through waivers

The Mariners outrighted Hunt to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.

After being designated for assignment Thursday, Hunt went unclaimed off waivers and will stick around in the Mariners organization as catching depth at the Triple-A level. The 26-year-old backstop has slashed .231/.271/.407 with two home runs over 96 plate appearances in the Pacific Coast League this season.
