The Seattle Mariners have just finalized a blockbuster trade, sending Robbie Ray to the San Francisco Giants. But as the Mariners craft their 2024 roster, Seattle still had a few more moves to make.

The Mariners have acquired outfielder Luke Raley from the Tampa Bay Rays. In return, the Rays received infielder infielder Jose Caballero, via Jeff Passan of ESPN. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic was the first to break the news of the trade being in the works.

Seattle acquired outfielder Mitch Haniger and Anthony DeSclafani from the Giants in their Ray deal. Both come with ample major league experience and could be useful to the Mariners come Opening Day. But president Jerry Dipoto wasn't yet satisfied and went out to acquire Raley.

Raley played in 188 games this past season, by far his most appearances over his three years in the league. He responded by hitting .249 with 19 home runs, 49 RBI and 14 stolen bases. Raley's power/speed potential clearly interests Seattle.

In return, the Mariners gave up a versatile player in Caballero. He made his MLB debut in 2023, hitting .221 with four home runs, 26 RBI and 26 stolen bases over 104. Caballero's speed is certainly appealing. Tampa Bay is also in need of some infield help due to the ongoing situation with Wander Franco.

With the trade now finalized, both sides got what they were looking for. The Mariners added another outfielder to their arsenal as they look to find the right combination. Tampa Bay is taking a chance on a young infielder who can contribute in multiple ways.

Both the Mariners and Rays are hoping it'll be a win-win trade.
