The Seattle Mariners are in quite a tough position with their starting third baseman Eugenio Suárez as he sits in free agency.
The Mariners need a third baseman for next season, but they haven’t opted to re-sign Suárez. He would fill the void at third base in a big way, but the Mariners don’t seem ready to commit more money to the veteran slugger.
As a result, other teams in the league have the chance to pluck Suárez out of free agency. He’s likely going to sign a one- or two-year deal worth around $20 million a year. There should be a handful of suitors for Suárez at this price.
