Seattle is shaking in the hustle and bustle of the transfer market, and this time, the earthquake is named Alex Bregman. After the 2025 season ended, information about the 31-year-old star’s future became the hottest topic in MLB circles. And now, according to TWSN’s source, the Mariners are leading the race, even described as “potential winners” in securing the signature of the two-time All-Star superstar.
This isn’t just a trade — it could be a franchise pivot, one that could put Seattle back on the map as a contender for the 2026 World Series.
After a tumultuous run with the Boston Red Sox, Bregman finished the 2025 season with numbers that would make any team salivate:
.273 batting average
18 home runs
62 RBI
64 runs
.821 OPS in 114 games
While not at the height of his Houston Astros days, Bregman still possesses elite strike zone discipline, a sharp clutch, and a mature offensive mind.
One analyst put it bluntly:
“Bregman doesn’t need to show off. He just needs one swing at the right time, and the whole game changes.”
Seattle has long lacked an experienced hitter who can protect the lineup and lead the young players. Bregman arrives at a time when the Mariners need a brain to lead the game from the No. 3 or No. 4 spot in the lineup.
The Mariners finished 2025 with promise but lacked something to break through. The answer may be a leader—not just technically, but mentally. And that’s why Seattle is being considered the best-positioned team to close the deal.
The front office is used to chasing strategic pieces in key moments. But Bregman is no ordinary piece. He represents: Instant stability; The ability to raise the offensive ceiling of the team; the playoff DNA Seattle is missing
An inside source says:
“If you want to teach a young team how to win, you sign Alex Bregman. It’s that simple.”
If Bregman is signed, the Mariners are likely to:
Revise their entire offensive strategy around stability in the middle of the lineup.
Push young stars to explode with an experienced leader to lead them.
Attract more free agents, as many players would love to join a team that can truly compete.
And the AL West rivals? They should be worried. Because the Mariners, with their already strong pitching, now add a big hitter… could be a complete monster.
All signs point to Seattle as the most likely destination. Negotiations are moving in the right direction, and experts believe the deal could be completed any day now.
Bregman has not made a public statement, but according to multiple sources close to him, he wants to return to the leadership role, which the Mariners are willing to give him.
A former coach said:
“Seattle is the perfect place for Bregman to make the final chapter of his career — the comeback chapter.”
If the deal goes through, it would be the biggest blockbuster of the 2025–26 winter, transforming the Mariners from a team with potential to a genuine contender. Seattle has enough pitching. They just need a heartbeat — and Bregman could be that heartbeat.
Wait and see: Seattle is one signing away from changing its entire future.
