As we reach December, it means 2 things, the Holidays are here, and the MLB Winter Meetings are upon us. Meaning the busiest time of the offseason is here. GMs and agents are all gathered in one place where they get to talk trades and contracts, so that means we do as well. The MLB Hot Stove is in full swing, and I fully expect to see some big moves made at the Winter Meetings.

As the Mariners have let Teoscar Hernandez explore free agency, along with trading Eugenio Suarez, they have some work to do. As things stand right now, they need a corner outfielder, a DH, and a third baseman or second baseman. No, Luis Urias should not be the starting third baseman to start the year. With that, we are going to go over the 3 free agents that should be on the Mariners wish list this holiday season. These 3 moves either address or allow the Mariners to trade and address positions of significant need.
