The Seattle Mariners are evaluating a potential trade for first baseman Josh Naylor ahead of the trade deadline. Last season, the Mariners made significant acquisitions, including Naylor, which helped propel them to the ALCS. With current needs for a right-handed power bat, Seattle's president of baseball operations, Jerry Dipoto, is expected to be aggressive in the trade market. The team recently called up prospect Colt Emerson, adding depth to their lineup. Continued activity from the Mariners is anticipated as the deadline looms.
