Mariners Silent on Crawford Extension as Free Agency Looms
Seattle has made no overtures to re-sign J.P. Crawford, signaling the veteran infielder will likely hit the open market for the first time.
J.P. Crawford is finishing the final year of his $46.15MM extension with Seattle and is on the verge of his first career free agency. The Mariners have not approached him about a new deal, per the Seattle Times. Crawford posted a 107 wRC+ in 111 games despite three IL stints covering a right hand contusion, right shoulder inflammation, and left wrist inflammation. Seattle's projected 2027 infield leaves little clear role for Crawford, making a return uncertain.
