The Seattle Mariners are reportedly looking to trade second baseman Robinson Cano and have contacted the New York Yankees and Mets about a potential deal.

Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported a Cano trade has become the next order of business for general manager Jerry Dipoto. The Mariners have already traded ace James Paxton to the Yankees and catcher Mike Zunino to the Tampa Bay Rays as they begin a rebuild.

Cano, 36, was limited to 80 games played last season due to a performance-enhancing drug suspension. He hit .303/.374/.471 with 10 home runs and 50 runs batted in after returning to the team.
