With the Astros winning the World Series on Wednesday night in a less-than-dramatic Game 7 compared to the games in the rest of the series, the Major League Baseball offseason officially started on Thursday morning at 6 a.m. local time with the free agency period beginning.
The Mariners will have seven players on their active roster that become free agents. Five players contracts expire, meaning they will be Article XX (B) free agents.

- Danny Valencia, 1B/OF
- Carlos Ruiz, C
