*Prediction*
The New York Yankees have already seen Paul Goldschmidt and Cody Bellinger enter free agency, and have even seen their pitching depth with Devin Williams and Luke Weaver sign with the New York Mets, in return the Yankees’ biggest move so far has been Trent Grisham signing his qualifying offer.
The Yankees have yet to add talent to the team, and it has now been reported that they could be looking to trade Jazz Chisholm Jr.

If the Yankees truly do go on to trade Jazz Chisholm Jr, the team that makes the most sense to have interest in acquiring him is the Seattle Mariners.

New York Yankees Trade Jazz Chisholm Jr to the Seattle Mariners
With the Seattle Mariners having come off a strong 2025 season in which they made the American League Championship Series, but lost to the Toronto Blue Jays, they should know they are close as a team, but ultimately need a few more players to ensure they can go all the way in 2026.
This becomes a bit more difficult when considering the fact that they have already lost Jorge Polanco in free agency, as he signed with the New York Mets, and Eugenio Suarez still remains a free agent. The Mariners need to find a way to bolster their infield for the upcoming season, and trading for Jazz Chisholm Jr is the way they can do so.
Jaxx Chisholm Jr is coming off his best season of his MLB career so far, in 2025, he had a .242/.332/.481 slash line with 31 home runs and 80 runs batted in. With Chisholm’s speed and improved batting ability, he is truly starting to emerge as a reliable talent in the league. With him being just 27 years old as well, there is more upside that can be unlocked with hi going forward as well.
With jazz Chisholm Jr’s ability to play both second base and third base due to his athleticism, he can help fill in at either spot, keeping the door open for the Mariners to continue to advance the team, or modify the lineup as the season progresses.
No matter what, trading for Chisholm Jr is the exact infield solution the Mariners need, and they have the prospects to make the Yankees interested in getting this deal done.
