MLB Insider on Seattle Mariners trading for Bryan Reynolds: "If I’m a Mariner fan, I’m keeping that possibility open"

The Seattle Mariners could still be looking to make some moves this offseason, with one insider linking them to Bryan Reynolds. Reynolds is a four-year veteran and has been selected to the All-Star team once in his career. He has been an excellent slugger for the Pittsburgh Pirates and requested a trade this offseason.

It remains unclear if the Pirates are willing to part ways with their rising star, but they will likely listen to trade offers. The Seattle Mariners are no strangers to making trades and it has become a core part of their philosophy for team building. This could be a good fit for a Mariners team looking to add offense to their lineup.

Jon Morosi joined a Seattle Sports radio show and shared his thoughts on potential Mariners moves, which they shared to Twitter.
