Iannetta is a former 4th round pick of the Colorado Rockies back in 2004. He spent six years with the Rockies before joining the Halos for the last 4 years.

He has served as the primary backup catcher for the club last season and struggled. He appeared in 92 games and hit just .188. He did have a OBP of .293 but the struggle was real for the catcher.

If he goes to Seattle he will have a reunion with Jerry Dipoto and Scott Servais who were apart of the Angels last season.
