His non-roster year with Seattle was 1983.
A simple google search produced this from United Press International, 3/2/83:
"The Mariners also announced they have invited pitcher Mike Mendoza to camp.
"Mendoza, who pitched in the Houston and New York Mets organizations, spent last summer with the Yucatan Leones of the Mexican League, where he compiled a 9-10 record with a 2.72 ERA and one save.
"He came to the Mariners on the recommendation of former coach Cananea Reyes, who managed the Coatzacoalcos team in the Mexican League last year."
