Seattle Mariners general manager Justin Hollander believes his team could bring back free-agent third baseman Eugenio Suárez.
"Certainly a chance," Hollander told MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM. "We've maintained contact with Geno's reps. We love Geno. Geno brings a ton - not just on the field with the 49 homers and the big moments - but off the field (with) his steady presence, great makeup, (and) what he brings to a clubhouse every day. It's ready hard to replicate."
The Mariners dealt for Suárez in March 2022 and then again at this year's trade deadline at the end of July.
Seattle still needs to find a new third baseman, as Ben Williamson is currently projected to man the hot corner come Opening Day. So, another reunion with Suárez makes sense.
The two-time All-Star went deep 49 times with a career-high 118 RBIs and an .824 OPS over 159 games between the Mariners and Arizona Diamondbacks in 2025. However, the 34-year-old struggled when he returned to Seattle, slashing .189/.255/.428 in 53 contests during the regular season.
Suárez's biggest hit came in the ALCS when he recorded a late grand slam in Game 5 to put the Mariners up in the series. They ultimately lost to the Toronto Blue Jays in seven games.
