Adam Jude of the Seattle Times reports that the Mariners are expected to pursue free-agent outfielder Seiya Suzuki.

Suzuki is coming off a .270/.368/.473 season with 26 homers over 545 plate appearances. The Mariners need bats, and with the team not expected to pursue a long-term extension with Randy Arozarena, it would not be a surprise if the 32-year-old was the replacement. There’s likely to be several suitors for Suzuki, but Seattle does make sense as a landing spot. It may not be an ideal one for fantasy managers, however, considering how tough it can be to hit in Seattle’s home park.
