MLB Trade Deadline: 3 more players the Seattle Mariners could trade for following Randy Arozarena deal

The Seattle Mariners made the first major splash heading into the MLB Trade Deadline by landing Randy Arozarena from the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for a package of prospects. The move came rather late on Thursday night, sending social media into a stir.

"We’ve acquired All-Star OF @RandyArozarena. The right-handed slugger joins the squad from the Rays in exchange for minor leaguers RHP Brody Hopkins, OF Aidan Smith and a player to be named later" - @Mariners

Despite the blockbuster acquisition, the Seattle Mariners will need to make a few more moves to their current roster if they hope to become legitimate contenders for the World Series. Many of the team's issues come on offense, which makes it likely that they will look to add more impact bats before the trade deadline.

Here's a look at 3 players that the Seattle Mariners could target before the MLB Trade Deadline

Brent Rooker

The Mariners have a serious need for additional offensive firepower and Oakland Athletics slugger Brent Rooker could be an answer to that problem. Rooker has been spectacular this season and could bring some much-needed life to Seattle's lineup. The 29-year-old has three years of arbitration eligibility remaining, so he could be a long-term option for the Mariners.

"Brent Rooker continues to mash!" - @MLB

Ryan Mountcastle

First base is an area that the Seattle Mariners need to address, especially after the club released Ty France. The team could look to use some of its pitching depth to acquire Ryan Mountcastle from the Baltimore Orioles. The O's are desperate to bolster their pitching, something that Seattle has in abundance.

The Orioles are a threat in the American League and could eventually be a postseason matchup for the team, however, the M's need to reach the playoffs at any cost.

Josh Bell

Another useful first baseman who will likely be available at the trade deadline is Josh Bell. The Miami Marlins slugger has had an impact wherever he has played and could be an instant upgrade to Seattle's lineup. An unrestricted free agent at the end of the season, the Marlins will likely be looking to move Bell before potentially losing him for nothing in the offseason.
