Randy Arozarena may be the best impending free agent outfielder in this year's class.
The Seattle Mariners left fielder is having another strong season at the plate, recording his sixth consecutive 20-20 season while sporting a 145 OPS+.
Arozarena may be able to cash in on this year's success with the Mariners, but will he be back in Seattle?
Chances are, several clubs will have interest in the three-time All-Star's services. Not to mention, no longer having T-Mobile Park as his home stadium could benefit Arozarena.
"Keep in mind how much his home ballpark suppresses offense, too, as Arozarena is hitting .307/.391/.532 on the road," Matt Snyder of CBS Sports wrote.
In all likelihood, Arozarena is looking for a long-term deal.
His home and away splits are so drastic that any club interested in signing the 31-year-old should feel comfortable about him taking another leap.
At T-Mobile Park, Arozarena is hitting .243/.356/.409 with a .765 OPS compared to a .923 OPS on the road.

Clearly, he's seeing the ball better away from T-Mobile Park, which creates a difficult selling point for the Mariners.
Of course, money talks. If the Mariners are the highest bidder, Arozarena could opt to return to the AL West club.
Otherwise, it's in his best interest if he wears another uniform next season, especially if he signs a one-to two-year deal.
