Personally, I hate the series in Baltimore every year about as much as Andrés Muñoz. The weather sucks no matter what time of year it is, the Mariners never seem to score many runs (especially when George Kirby is on the mound for some reason), the injury bug always seems to bite in Oriole Park […]
Both Adley Rutschman and Samuel Basallo are back in the Orioles lineup tonight against the Mariners. Rutschman will ease back into action as the designated hitter, while Basallo will return to the starting lineup after being available off the bench. Taylor Ward, Colton Cowser and Leody Taveras will handle the outfield duties. Coby Mayo will […]
The Seattle Mariners received an encouraging injury update Thursday as J.P. Crawford moved closer to a possible return. The shortstop resumed baseball activity at Camden Yards, giving the club a meaningful sign during an important road series. Crawford took groundballs for the first time since a hit-by-pitch caused a right hand contusion and sent him […]

It seems the Seattle Mariners may have finally found their footing. After a difficult start to the season plagued by injury and inconsistency, the Mariners have taken the lead in the AL West and seem poised to hold on for the remainder of the year. It still feels wild to have the Mariners among the […]
The Seattle Mariners have cranked their bullpen merry-go-round once more. This time, they’ve selected a local product to cycle into the rotation, selecting RHP Michael Rucker from Triple-A Tacoma and designating RHP Domingo González for assignment one day after recalling him. Rucker is a 32 year old hurler who starred at Auburn Riverside High School, […]
The Seattle Seahawks wrap up their mandatory minicamp on Thursday. A notable absence from practice is second-year wide receiver Tory Horton, who missed the back-end of Seattle’s season with a shin injury. Last month, Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters that there was a chance that Horton would be able to do some on-field […]
The Seattle Mariners made another bullpen adjustment Thursday before facing the Baltimore Orioles, selecting Michael Rucker’s contract and designating Domingo Gonzalez for assignment. The move gives the Mariners a fresh relief arm at Camden Yards and ends Gonzalez’s latest MLB stint in less than 24 hours. Seattle brought him back on Wednesday after Matt Brash […]

The Mariners announced that they have selected the contract of right-hander Michael Rucker. Fellow righty Domingo González has been designated for assignment as the corresponding move. Last night, the Mariners went into the game with a pretty taxed bullpen. They are operating with a six-man rotation at the moment, giving them a seven-man bullpen while […]
It seems that even when someone moves on, the conversation about the Vancouver Canucks‘ practice facility – or, better yet, the lack thereof – persists. On Thursday, Seattle Kraken general manager Jason Botterill announced that the team has hired former Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin to serve as one of the team’s assistant general managers. In…

Allvin had recently been relieved of his role as GM of the Canucks, while Vincent had been a head coach with AHL Laval.

It can be tough to find true impact players towards the back half of the first round, but that certainly hasn’t stopped the Mariners from shooting for the moon in the past. Snagging their infield tandem of the future in Colt Emerson and Cole Young with picks in the 20’s, the M’s will yet again […]

Good morning and happy Thursday everybody. Ders is still out of town so you get a double-dose of Nick links this week. The Mariners got trounced 7-2 by the Orioles yesterday but have a chance to bounce back in the series finale with Bryan Woo on the mound at 4:05 PST on ESPN. I know […]
On the 560th Sporticast episode, hosts Scott Soshnick and Eben Novy-Williams discuss some of the biggest sports business stories of the week, including a potential bid group taking shape in Seattle for either (or both?!) the NFL’s Seahawks and the looming NBA expansion team. Melinda French Gates announced recently that she had invested in the […]
The Seattle Seahawks may be reigning Super Bowl champions, but head coach Mike Macdonald is making sure his roster stays grounded in something larger than football. On Wednesday, the 38-year-old coach altered the team’s mandatory minicamp plans. After running his squad through a two-and-a-half-hour session on Tuesday, Macdonald trimmed Wednesday’s workout to a short one-hour […]

It may have started on time and finished without interruption, but Wednesday night’s game was rain-delayed in spirit for the Mariners. They could never really get the engine to start for their offense as they dropped the third game of their series in Baltimore, 7-2. Orioles starter Brandon Young cruised as the Mariners struggled to […]
The Seattle Seahawks made a somewhat interesting roster addition earlier in the week, signing veteran tackle Bobby Hart ahead of mandatory minicamp. Recently re-signed swing tackle, Josh Jones, had not been practicing throughout OTAs. Jones had dealt with some late-season injuries while deputizing for the injured Charles Cross, but ultimately didn’t have a game designation […]
