Mike Salk of 710 ESPN Seattle says that free agent outfielder and DH Jermaine Dye is interested in playing for the Mariners.

This off season Dye turned down an offer from the Cubs and most recently turned down an offer from the Nationals citing his lack of desire to uproot his family. The offer from the Nationals was believed to be $4 million.

“Seattle is a team he focused on this off-season,” said Bob Bry, Dye’s agent. “He was disappointed that there was not more interest from the club.”

Salk says that Dye may accept a lessor role of being a platoon player or a designated hitter for the Mariners. Addtionally, Dye may accept a one-year offer between $3-4 million for Seattle.

Dye, 35, hit 27 home runs and drove in 81 RBIs in 2009. In Safeco Field, Dye hit .272 with 8 home runs in 52 career games.  You can see Dye’s contract history and statistics here.
