And now, the dealmaker is in a position to teardown the Mariners’ roster, possibly willing to sell anything not nailed into the Seattle soil in order to start a redo. Because as of now, the Mariners are stuck in the worst possible situation – good, but not good enough. Seager was once a coveted piece, but as he’s gotten older, his production and trade value have rapidly declined. The Mariners also have Jean Segura, but his full no-trade clause and $60 million over the next four seasons are fighting his value. So, essentially Dipoto’s options are limited, and so might be his trigger finger this winter.
