Mariners preview: Infield could be best in AL in 2016

For all the roster altering Jerry Dipoto carried out in his first offseason as general manager, the Mariners executive was content to leave the infield be.

OK, that's not entirely true.

But with six-time American League All-Star Robinson Cano locked in at second base, AL Gold Glove winner Kyle Seager (2014) at third base and the emergence of rookie Ketel Marte at shortstop late last season, the need for tinkering was minimal.

Granted, Dipoto, through trades and signing free-agents, was still active in adding depth and removing a few pieces that failed to fit with his vision.
