2022-23 Offseason Transactions and Rumors

[Sexymarinersfan]

My moves

LF - Ian Happ (FA)

RF - Bryan Reynolds (Trade)

DH - Jose Abreu (FA)

2B - Luis Arraez (Trade)

Winker gets traded, Haniger moves on unless you sign him to a QO & make him your 4th OF wouldn't be a horrible idea, & the cherry on top Mr. Adam "not Joe" Frazier is G-O-N-E. My question would be do we have enough depth to acquire both Reynolds & Arraez (if made available)?

I dunno, I'd rather see Frazier getting AB's than Toro. He'd be a nice quality utility player for the right price.

He'd be a great bench piece.

Happ isn't an FA. Reynolds is a good trade target. Abreu is getting old and seems to be decline. LA is a good trade target.

$20M for a 4th OFer. lol No I don't think we have enough to make two major trades....

Some team will offer him starter money hoping for a bounce back season. Maybe the Royals to replace Merrifield.

Come on guys. He is a 30 yo FA that can go anywhere. WTF would he agree to be a bench piece.

OK then replace Abreu with Pederson & take out Happ. Throw in Benitendi. Just has to be better than Winker.

All I'm saying isn't I wouldn't mind having Frazier back for the right price. I don't want him as my everyday 2B though. But I wouldn't be mad if he came back to a utility role. Will he sign somewhere else? Probably, but I don't think he gets $8M a season again to do so.

Check this out. FFS if this is even close to our lineup......

Projected Lineup

1. SS J.P. Crawford
2. 1B Ty France
3. CF Julio Rodríguez
4. DH Jesse Winker
5. 3B Eugenio Suárez
6. 2B Brandon Drury
7. RF Sam Haggerty
8. C Cal Raleigh
9. LF Taylor Trammell
SP Luis Castillo

Notes

- The Mariners could have a busy offseason on the trade market thanks to an abundance of young, high-ceiling outfielders. Case in point, Kyle Lewis and Jarred Kelenic are not part of the projected Opening Day lineup. Sam Haggerty has played his way into a bigger role by hitting .321/.364/.514 with 12 extra-base hits and 1.4 WAR in 49 games.

- Signing the versatile Brandon Drury to serve as the primary second baseman would add another power bat to the lineup. He could also see time at DH when Jesse Winker plays in the outfield and third base when Eugenio Suárez needs a rest.

Sadly, for all of the big dreaming going on around here, this seems likely a more likely scenario given JD's recent trading preferences and overall reluctance to go after big names in FA. Unless ownership gives him a book of those giant novelty checks you get when you win the lottery, and free reign to hand them out to the Judges and Xanders and Reynodlsesss out there, this seems like a more probable opening day lineup. Call me pessimistic.

But the reason I like hanging out here is because y'all seem to dream big - and usually come up with scenarios that are both plausible and more compelling than current ownership's flaccid efforts at rosterbating.

Bleacher report has Frazier going to the Red Sox and Mitch going to the Padres as a primary DH. I’d like to see us take a run at Kodai Senga to replace Marco in the rotation. I’m sure Jerry is set on his current rotation and Senga ends up in Anaheim
