The Red Sox have been linked to several infielders this offseason. But now with Pete Alonso off the board after he signed a five-year deal with the Orioles, another infielder has emerged as a possibility.

The Seattle Mariners have a number of different routes to fill their opening at third base. They could work to re-sign free agent Eugenio Suarez. They could move some pieces around internally, including Ben Williamson or Colt Emerson. Or, they could hit free agency for a new face.

The Seattle Mariners' biggest splash of the offseason feasibly could have been re-signing Josh Naylor, but it's also possible they had bigger fireworks planned.
