kyle seager

With the MLB trade deadline looming and the Seattle Mariners on the cusp of a playoff birth -- despite being in the midst of a "rebuilding" season -- here are 6 players they should consider unloading to stay the course and look towards long-term success.

Kyle Seager hit a two-run single and Marco Gonzales won his second straight decision, as the Mariners inched closer in the AL wild-card chase with a 4-3 win over the Athletics.

Austin Gomber pitched effectively for six innings in his return from the injured list, as the Colorado Rockies beat the Seattle Mariners 6-3.

Rookie Logan Gilbert pitched one-hit ball for the best start of his young career, Kyle Seager and Dylan Moore both homered, as the Mariners beat the New York Yankees 4-0.

Dylan Moore hit a three-run homer in the tenth inning and the Seattle Mariners held on after blowing two earlier leads to beat the Toronto Blue Jays 9-7.

Shed Long Jr. hit a tying double in the bottom of the ninth inning and pinch-hitter Kyle Seager singled home the winning run to rally the Seattle Mariners past the Tampa Bay Rays 6-5.

Jake Fraley hit his first major league homer, and the surging Seattle Mariners began a 10-game road trip with a 6-2 victory over the Los Angeles Angels.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger cranked both his 9th and 10th home runs of the 2021 season to pull into a tie for the American League lead in round-trippers but it wasn't enough as the M's bullpen couldn't hold on to a 4-1 lead late in the game at Chavez Ravine against the defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers.

Kyle Lewis and Kyle Seager homered, reliever Kendall Graveman extended his scoreless streak to 18 2/3 innings and the Seattle Mariners beat the Baltimore Orioles 5-2.

Last night, the Mariners simply didn't have enough Kyles to keep up with the Houston Astros in a 5-2 loss as both namesakes Seager and Lewis both hit home runs. Tonight (April 27) only one Kyle collected the measly two hits.
