2021-2022 Mariners offseason/free agency thread

Hey @Podunkparte, do you have an avatar picked out already? It would seems I lost the MOTY bet with you as Servais may have already received a couple 1st place votes? We can do this now or wait until it’s officially announced! It was great and fun discussion. Thanks!

[SeattleCoug]

if they cant grab...an other...option...i think..you have to consider..him..for one year.......

1. 48. CF Starling Marte, Oakland Athletics
   WAR Average: 5.1
   Marte is still doing most of the things that made him a star with Pittsburgh in the mid-2010s. One change this year is that he drew walks in a career-high 8.2 percent of his plate appearances to go with his .308 average and MLB-high 47 steals, so he's frankly never been better even though he's now 33 years old.

40-31: Mahle-Lowe​

7 OF 10

30-21: Riley-Olson​

8 OF 10

1. 21. 1B Matt Olson, Oakland Athletics
   WAR Average: 5.4
   Olson did something that should be impossible in today's MLB, which is cut his strikeout percentage from 2020 (31.4) basically in half in 2021 (16.8). That plus his power and patience were his ticket to a 153 OPS+ and 39 home runs, and he also played his usual Gold Glove-caliber defense.

20-11: O'Neill-Turner​

1. 20. LF Tyler O'Neill, St. Louis Cardinals
   WAR Average: 5.9
   How do you overcome a 31.3 strikeout percentage? If you're Tyler O'Neill, basically by doing everything else well. A 97th-percentile barrel rate was the foundation for his 150 OPS+ and 34 home runs. And especially based on his 12 defensive runs saved, he's rightfully a finalist for his second straight Gold Glove.
2. 
   19. CF Bryan Reynolds, Pittsburgh Pirates
   WAR Average: 5.8
   So, this Bryan Reynolds guy might be really good. He was about equally productive from the left (.911 OPS) and right (.915 OPS) sides of the plate in 2021, and he even had 11 outs above average in the outfield. He also specializes in the kind of good baserunning that, to paraphrase Yogi Berra, you can only observe by watching.
   
3. 14. RHP Max Scherzer, Los Angeles Dodgers
   WAR Average: 5.7
   Though he's now 37 years old, Scherzer's twilight years are nowhere to be seen. He continued to operate with an elite contact rate in 2021, and he eventually led the league in walks and hits per nine innings. Between that and his 166 ERA+ and 236 strikeouts over 179.1 innings, he has a case for what would be his fourth Cy Young Award.
   

10-1: Harper-Ohtani​

10 OF 10

1. 4. 2B Marcus Semien, Toronto Blue Jays
   WAR Average: 6.9
   From looking at his peripheral stats, you could make the case that Semien overperformed in 2021. Yet pulled fly balls solve a lot of problems, and he hit more of those than any other American Leaguer as he compiled a 133 OPS+ and 45 home runs. He's also rightfully a Gold Glove finalist even though this was his first year as a full-time second baseman. For the second time in three years, he has MVP votes coming.

Some guys you mention here that I like as well.

Marte would definitely be a decent stop gap option until we know for sure Julio is sticking.

Also Mahle is someone I wanted us to check in on at the deadline last year and now it seems certain the Reds will try and move him. However he is more a middle of the rotation guy so if we lets saw resign Anderson, then maybe I'd prefer us to aim a little higher on another pitcher

 

[SeattleCoug]

Let the rumors begin:

 

[SeattleCoug]

He got him to decline his option.

I wonder if skipping his final start played a role here. I guess we may never know for sure

 

[NWinAZ]

Well we do need a 2B...

 

[NWinAZ]

So last week Dipoto said he had spoken to every non W.S. team and names have been exchanged and deals were going to happen and right away around the league including with him. So????

That's not what he said. He said it would be active right from the start.I only mention it because I don't believe anything that comes out of that mans mouth.
