Seattle Mariners Make Utility Dylan Moore Available Amid Trade Talks

The Seattle Mariners have made utility player Dylan Moore available in trade discussions as they pursue Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez to bolster their playoff-contending roster. Moore, who won a Gold Glove in 2024 and is valued for his defensive versatility across multiple positions, is currently struggling offensively with a severe slump since June, batting just .040 over 54 plate appearances. The Mariners view acquiring Suárez, who leads MLB with 87 RBIs, as a means to strengthen their infield corners alongside recent acquisition Josh Naylor, potentially limiting Moore's playing time and prompting his availability. Despite his slump, Moore's career splits show better performance on the road, which could attract teams seeking a versatile bench player or pinch-runner. However, his trade value is likely diminished due to his current offensive struggles and below-average defensive metrics this season. The Mariners remain active in trade talks with multiple teams competing for Suárez, while aiming to maximize returns ahead of the July 31 trade deadline.
