Everett, WASports

Jonny Farmelo debuted for the High-A Everett AquaSox on April 29, 2025, hitting a two-run homer in the fifth inning against the Emeralds, who won the game 3-2. The home run marked the AquaSox's only runs of the game. Farmelo, a 20-year-old from Centreville, Virginia, was drafted No. 29 overall by the Seattle Mariners in the 2023 MLB Draft. He is currently ranked the No.

6 prospect in the Mariners organization and the No. 92 prospect in baseball according to MLB Pipeline. After recovering from a torn ACL that had kept him out since June 2024, he made his professional debut with the Single-A Modesto Nuts, where he achieved a . 264 batting average over 46 games. Farmelo's promotion to Everett strengthens the AquaSox, who now feature five of the Mariners' top ten prospects.

His performance included notable achievements, such as a four-hit game with three doubles in May 2024. This assignment signifies the Mariners' commitment to developing young talent in their minor league system.
