The newest scouting reports indicate they might not be the talent the Mariners are looking for this offseason.
So far, it has been a slow offseason. The Mariners are surprisingly the only team that has signed a free agent deal of note but to be fair, it's still early. The non-tender deadline was just a few days ago and it resulted in a flurry of moves from around the league. For now, it seems like most teams, including those in Seattle's own division, are focused on clearing space on the roster and in the budget before they decide how much to invest in 2026.
