Reports: Mariners Make Deals with Randy Arozarena, George Kirby

The Mariners secured Randy Arozarena for $15.65 million and George Kirby for $6.55 million to maintain roster continuity and build on their 2025 success.

  • Ahead of the 2026 season, the Seattle Mariners reached one-year deals with left fielder Randy Arozarena and right-handed starting pitcher George Kirby, with Kirby set to earn $6.55 million.
  • Seeking roster continuity after 2025, the Seattle Mariners aim to provide roster stability as they build on their 2025 AL West title and deep postseason run while keeping core contributors for the 2026 campaign.
  • After a slow start, Arozarena finished the regular season hitting.238 with a.760 OPS, 27 home runs and 31 stolen bases but hit just.188 with a.574 OPS in the postseason.
  • George Kirby, 27, right-handed starting pitcher, dealt with a shoulder injury in 2025 but will receive a raise and remain a key rotation piece for the Mariners.
  • Arozarena's deal gives him a significant raise and sets his path toward free agency following the 2026 season, and if he finds early form, he could help Seattle in 2026 preparation.
