The Mariners have declined third baseman Kyle Seager's club option, which was worth $20 million. Instead, the longtime Seattle staple will receive a $2 million buyout. (Ryan Divish on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Drafted back in 2009, Seager has spent his entire career with the Mariners. He slashed just .212/.285/.438 this past season but posted career-highs in home runs (35) and RBI (101). However, on a more negative note, he struck out in 24 percent of trips to the plate, which was the worst mark of the third baseman's career. He should be a hot commodity on the open market this winter.
