The first MLB team the NY Mets should call about a Ronny Mauricio trade

Rising Apple's Tim Boyle argues that the New York Mets should target the Seattle Mariners as a primary trade partner for infielder Ronny Mauricio. With Mauricio out of minor league options and facing limited playing time in New York, Boyle suggests a trade is necessary. Seattle's statistical struggles on the left side of the infield make them an ideal fit.

Mauricio appeared in only 20 major league games during the 2026 season, batting .220 with four home runs. Boyle notes that the Mariners ranked last in MLB with a -0.4 bWAR at third base and 28th at shortstop, potentially paving the way for a deal involving pitching or prospects.
