The Seattle Mariners boast one of baseball's most loaded pitching staffs. Despite that, they fell short of their goals in 2024 by missing the postseason for the second straight season and the 22nd time in 23 years.
One of the main culprits of their disappointing season was the lack of production from their lineup. For all the talent they boast in their starting rotation, Seattle had an extremely underwhelming collection of hitters. They didn't do much to improve on that during the offseason, as their lone signing was veteran infielder Jorge Polanco.
