Isaac Paredes and Steven Kwan: Let’s Talk OUTSIDE-THE-BOX Seattle Mariners Trade Targets
Ketel Marte has been taken off the trade market by the Diamondbacks, while the Mariners avoided arbitration with all but one of their arb-eligible players. Plus, Ryan Divish says the M’s are “looking into trades we haven’t even considered,” so Ty and Colby think outside the box and discuss a player Divish mentioned and another who might surprise you.

Success in any deal like this, in my mind, is tied to trading Canzone and keeping Raley. They don't need both, and Raley is 10x the player.
The starters showed us how fragile they can be. I would rather not trade potential starters for marginal position players.
Yoan Moncada was playing injured most of 2025. Was that the cause of his poor defense? And… he was in pain when hitting righthanded and sat out vLHP. If healthy (HUGE if), Moncada can be useful as a 3bman/DH. Of 250 MLB hitters with 250+ PA vRHP, Moncada's 125 wRC+ was 65th. That would have been 3rd best (even ahead of Arozarena) on the M's. And… Isaac Paredes does NOT have the arm to play 3b full time.
AL West you say?

I’m happy Donovan, Hoener, and Kwan are all leadoff types since that’s something this team desperately needs. I can’t watch Arozerena at leadoff anymore it just doesn’t suit his play
Raley better be wearing his glasses this offseason.
