Bigger markets have been thrown out as his destination, but this prediction is that Suarez and his 31 homers will come back to Seattle. The Mariners have more top-100 prospects than any team in baseball, according to MLB Pipeline. And they need an upgrade on Ben Williamson at third base.

BOTTOM LINE: The Seattle Mariners host the Houston Astros on Friday to open a three-game series. Seattle has a 25-21 record in home games and a 51-45 record overall. The Mariners have the ninth-ranked team ERA in the AL at 3.93.
