\u201cWe love Geno,” Hollander said<\/a>.\u00a0“Geno brings a ton not just on the field\u2026 But off the field, his steady presence, great makeup, [and] what he brings to a clubhouse every day, it\u2019s really hard to replicate.\u00a0 So we\u2019ve maintained contact with Geno\u2019s reps all winter long.\u201d<\/p>\n Oct 17, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Mariners third baseman Eugenio Suarez (28) reacts after their win against the Toronto Blue Jays in game five of the ALCS round for the 2025 MLB playoffs at T-Mobile Park. Mandatory Credit: Steven Bisig-Imagn Images | Steven Bisig-Imagn Images<\/p>\n If Suarez does return to the Mariners, he will likely be used more as a DH than as a regular third baseman.

At what price is unknown, as none of the negotiations or the terms have been made public.<\/p>\n More Seattle Mariners News & OpinionsMariners Ace Bryan Woo will look to rebound after late-season injury struggles in 2025<\/a>Colt Emerson’s eventual Mariners debut is already stirring excitement, interest<\/a>Justin Hollander and Jerry Dipoto have formed a Dynamic Duo in Mariners’ front office<\/a>Could the Mariners Trade for Yankees’ outfielder Jazz Chisholm in Blockbuster Deal?<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With a couple of vacancies on infeld, the Mariners have begun to run out ofoptions when it comes…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":363530,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[363,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-363529","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mlb","8":"tag-mlb","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/363529","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=363529"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/363529\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/363530"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=363529"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=363529"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=363529"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Seattle](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/01kd2nyxmq5f5n4mbej2.jpg\" "\\"Seattle")
