The Seattle Mariners are hoping that a big free agent splash will return them to contention in the American League West.
Carlos Beltran and Nelson Cruz are both at the top of the Mariners list of available free agents reports Buster Onley.
There is no shortage of teams interested in the pair of outfielders so the Mariners likely would have to overpay to land one.
Mariners are said to be targeting Nelson Cruz and Carlos Beltran. A major question looms: Will elite free agents seriously consider Seattle?
