Seattle Mariners legend and current special assistant Dan Wilson has confirmed that the organization has made significant moves in the 2024-2025 offseason, landing two prominent MLB free agents. These signings mark a major step in the Mariners’ efforts to bolster their lineup and build a competitive team for the upcoming season.
The former Baltimore Orioles outfielder, brings a powerful bat and solid defensive skills to Seattle. Known for his consistency at the plate, Santander has been a key contributor in Baltimore over the past few seasons, averaging over 25 home runs and 80 RBIs in the last three years. The switch-hitter will add much-needed offensive depth to the Mariners’ outfield, particularly in the corner positions, and his ability to hit for both power and average will complement the existing core.
Meanwhile, a first baseman formerly with the Kansas City Royals, is another valuable addition. Pasquantino, often praised for his disciplined approach at the plate, has developed into a rising star in recent seasons. His ability to get on base, combined with his improving power numbers, makes him an excellent fit for the Mariners, especially at first base, where the team has been looking to solidify its options. Known for his exceptional on-base percentage and strong defensive skills, Pasquantino is expected to be a key player in the Mariners’ infield.
With these two signings, the Mariners are clearly positioning themselves for a strong run in the 2025 season. The addition of Anthony Santander and Vinnie Pasquantinowill give the lineup a mix of power and consistency, while also improving the overall depth of the roster. Mariners fans have plenty to be excited about as the team continues to build toward a competitive future.
