The Seattle Mariners confirmed Monday they have signed first baseman Josh Naylor to a new five-year contract through 2030.
While financial terms were not revealed, The Athletic and ESPN reported it was worth $92.5 million. The contract also includes a full no-trade clause, according to ESPN.
The Mariners had acquired Josh Naylor from the Arizona Diamondbacks for left-hander Brandyn Garcia and minor league pitcher Ashton Izzi ahead of the trade deadline in July.
Naylor batted .299 with nine home runs, 33 RBIs, a .341 on-base percentage and .490 slugging percentage in 54 regular-season games as the Mariners won the American League West.
He batted .340 with three homers, five RBIs, a .392 on-base percentage and .574 slugging percentage in 12 playoff games as Seattle reached Game 7 of the American League Championship Series before elimination by the Toronto Blue Jays.
'Ensuring that Josh remains a Mariner for the long haul was a priority for us,' Mariners president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto said in a statement. 'Josh's intelligence, intensity, toughness, and competitiveness show up every day. He's simply a winner.'
'I'm going to be a Mariner again and I couldn't be more excited,' Naylor said in a statement. 'From the moment I arrived, everyone in the organization welcomed and helped me. The players brought me in and loved my game right away, and the fans were incredible. Seattle has the best fanbase in baseball. They're electric and support us through and through, and I couldn't be more thankful for that. I can't wait to continue to play with these guys and bring the city a championship.'
Naylor is a .269 career hitter with 104 homers and 435 RBIs in 745 regular-season games for San Diego (2019-20), Cleveland (2020-24), Arizona (2025) and Seattle, earning an American League All-Star selection in 2024 with the Guardians. He has played the outfield and been a designated hitter in addition to first base.
