The Story in 60 Seconds

Following a Game 7 ALCS elimination by the Toronto Blue Jays, the Seattle Mariners face critical roster decisions ahead of the next season. Despite securing their first AL West title since 2001 and seeing Cal Raleigh hit 60 home runs, manager Dan Wilson and president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto are focused on reshaping the lineup after falling just short of the franchise's first World Series.

Seattle's priority involves addressing pending free agents Eugenio Suárez and Josh Naylor, both acquired prior to the trade deadline. Dipoto highlighted retaining Naylor at first base as a priority, while rookie Ben Williamson could step in at third base if Suárez departs. Additionally, second baseman Jorge Polanco holds a $6 million player option that could lead to new contract negotiations.
