Hitting-needy Arizona is reportedly in pursuit of the 36-year-old Ibanez, Seattle’s RBI leader with 59 after his season-high four Friday. And the Mariners, 20 games under .500, are already bringing up rookies in a preview of 2009, increasing the likelihood for a fire sale of veterans before the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline.
