The Seattle Mariners and Houston Astros close out a three-game AL West series Sunday night at Daikin Park, with both clubs looking for an important series victory as the season moves deeper into August. How to Watch Mariners vs Astros…
Today, the Houston Astros have optioned SP Ronel Blanco to Triple-A Sugar Land, and recalled RP Miguel Ullola. Blanco pitched 4 innings in yesterday’s loss to the Seattle Mariners, allowing 5 ER and 7 H and a walk while striking out 3. He allowed one HR while throwing 42 of his 59 pitches for strikes. […]
Seattle Mariners manager Dan Wilson could get fired after this season, and he has catcher Cal Raleigh to blame, whose quote could the final nail in the coffin.
The Mariners followed up the worst game of the year with a commanding win that would have been a lot more inspiring if it had come two weeks ago. Alas, I’m a beggar being a chooser. A win is a win. A series win tomorrow won’t fix everything, but it could be an important step […]
The Mariners have claimed right-hander Troy Watson off waivers from the Tigers. Watson fills the empty spot on Seattle’s 40-man roster. He has been assigned to the Triple-A Tacoma Rainiers. Watson, 29, was a late-round draft pick by the Blue Jays in 2018. Toronto sent him to Detroit for cash considerations during the 2024 campaign, […]
So the Mariners’ 50th anniversary celebratory weekend hasn’t gone as planned on the field. Are any of that that surprised? Thankfully, both the alumni home run derby on Friday and the pregame ceremony last night reminded us that yes, there can still be joy in baseball. The M’s will look to salvage the series against […]
The Mariners celebrated 50 years of mostly mediocre baseball by playing yet another mediocre baseball game. They will attempt to appear more competent tomorrow at 1:10 PST. In Mariners news… Around the league…
Alex Rodriguez returned to Seattle on Saturday not knowing what kind of reception awaited him. He got a standing ovation instead. The former Mariners superstar was honored as part of the franchise’s Top 50 Greatest Players celebration during the team’s 50th anniversary weekend at T-Mobile Park, marking his first appearance at the ballpark since his […] The post Watch former Mariners’ Alex Rodriguez receive a hero’s welcome in return to Seattle appeared first on ClutchPoints .
In a move that surprised no one yet still wrung a fair amount of waterworks out of the assembled crowd – and the man himself – the Mariners announced that Rick Rizzs will be inducted into the Mariners Hall of Fame next season. Rizzs will be just the twelfth member of the Mariners Hall of […]
Rays started slow with some awkward last minute changes. Griffin Jax had to be scratched with elbow discomfort, while Taylor Walls was removed from the initial lineup still dealing with back soreness. The loss of Jax (and hopefully not for too long) changed the strategy shifting towards a full on bullpen game. Combine that with […]

Dang, was there some kind of ceremony before the game or something? More game thread!
Well, this could be awkward. The Mariners will take another step in the never-ending Hell that is the 2026 season. They lost last night, two solo homers to one. The lineup continues to look lifeless, and the pitching has been the worst in the majors for weeks now. This is a very bad baseball team […]
The Twins‘ pursuit of a playoff berth made them aggressive buyers at the trade deadline, with Dean Kremer, A.J. Minter, and Jeff Hoffman all added as part of Minnesota’s quest for pitching. Such targets as the Blue Jays‘ Kevin Gausman and the Angels‘ Jose Soriano and Zach Neto were also explored, according to Bobby Nightengale […]
This has to be the latest I’ve been at T-Mobile Park in years, if not ever. It’s 11 pm, and I’m in my Yes We Canó t-shirt circa 2015, and people around me are cheering Stefen Romero. It isn’t heaven, nor is it hell. Baby, it’s the Mariners Alumni Home Run Derby. The whole thing […]
Good morning! When Munetaka Murakami went off for 6 RBI against Houston on his bobblehead day , he cemented a franchise first: four separate players, in their first 140 games, to log at least five RBI in a game in the same season. Are there a few qualifiers in there to make it a first? Sure. At the same time, though, only two other iterations managed three instances: 1991 (the same player each time), and 1921 (three different players). This has been a fun season thus far, likely continues to...
There's still plenty of season left, but several would-be contenders already look like they've missed a golden opportunity to improve.
Hello everyone and happy Saturday! The Mariners may have lost a sleepy 2-1 game to the Rays yesterday, but the Alumni Home Run Derby provided plenty of fun as former Mariner Stefen Romero took the crown, defeating Austin Nola in the final round. But truly, has there been a more fun moment this season than […]
The good news is that the Mariners weren’t shut out. A last-gasp Julio Rodríguez solo homer helped the 2026 Mariners avoid making some ugly history, on a night when the Mariners opened the celebration of 50 years of the franchise. The bad news is that they might as well have been, with another lifeless offensive […]
The Tampa Bay Rays and Seattle Mariners kicked off a three-game set in Seattle on Friday night and the pitching matchup that featured Drew Rasmussen and Logan Gilbert did not disappoint. The pair of aces delivered a throwback edition pitcher’s duel and luckily for the Rays, Drew Rasmussen emerged victorious. The righty turned in yet […]
Rays 2, Mariners 1 Anagrams: Julio Rodríguez and Eduard Bazardo, +.03 WPA Bananagrams: Taylor Ward, -.17 WPA but let’s be clear, every single member of the offense could be in this category tonight, as not a single one aside from Julio had a positive WPA. They, to put it gently, stink. Game thread comment of […]
The Astros are in talks about adding a right-handed hitting outfielder, reports Chandler Rome of The Athletic. Rome adds that they’ve shown interest in Rob Refsnyder and Austin Hays, each of whom was released this week. Refsnyder and Hays signed one-year contracts with the Mariners and White Sox, respectively. Both players had a history of hitting […]
August 7: Fairchild cleared outright waivers, the Mariners announced. His transaction log at MLB.com indicates he elected free agency rather than accept an assignment to Tacoma. August 4: The Mariners announced several roster moves today, most of which were previously reported. They also reinstated infielder/outfielder Brendan Donovan from the 10-day injured list. Outfielder Stuart Fairchild […]
After yesterday’s shellacking at the hands of the deadline-selling Tigers during a series where they were outscored 4054 – 4, the Mariners limp into their 50th Anniversary Weekend to face the best team in the AL, the Tampa Bay Rays. We’re already brainstorming names for what we’ll nickname this potential debacle, in the grand tradition […]
