"The Mariners' search for a veteran left-handed reliever apparently has landed on a familiar name, as CBSSports.com reported Saturday night that free agent George Sherrill has agreed to terms with the club.
The Mariners have not announced a deal or commented on the report.
Sherrill, who broke into the Majors with the Mariners in 2004 after being purchased from the independent Northern League in 2003, has a 3.68 ERA in 440 career appearances, all in relief. He has allowed left-handed batters a .180 batting average in his eight seasons. "
