Mariners face complicated Eugenio Suarez contract choice
The Seattle Mariners won the trade deadline sweepstakes at the end of July.
Eugenio Suarez was viewed as the top hitter available, and it was the Mariners who pulled off the deal to get him from the Arizona Diamondbacks .
That move came with an expiration date, though. Suarez was in the final year of his contract, and so it was a trade designed for three months worth of baseball contributions, not any longer.
The Mariners' season is over now, ended in Game 7 of the ALCS on Monday night. And so officially five days after the World Series ends, Suarez will be a free agent.
The Mariners will have to decide whether to try and bring him back, and it's not an easy call.
