Latest news and updates about the Mariners
Like a rollercoaster built by a particularly unimaginative person, tonight’s Mariners game was slow and boring for the first two-thirds, then suddenly rocketed into being fun late. By the time it was over the score was 8-3 and the Mariners offense had somehow not only blown past their former three-run-per-game cap (Rest in Pieces, hopefully […]
Mariners 8, Angels 3 Viva Mexico!: Bryan Woo, .31 WPA Dutch Oven: J.P. Crawford, -.08 WPA Game thread comment of the day:
With the off day tomorrow, the Mariners are using today as an opportunity to get a few dinged-up players some back-to-back days of rest: Dominic Canzone (hamstring) and Luke Raley (elbow) are both out of the lineup, and Canzone, at least, won’t be available off the bench. Randy Arozarena is also getting a breather. Not […]
The Mariners attempted to prop up their flagging bullpen today, trading out lefty Josh Simpson for righty Cole Wilcox. With the Mariners past the Oops! All Lefties Guardians lineup, there’s no need for an extra lefty in the ‘pen, but Simpson didn’t make a strong argument to stay, providing the bottom bread in the disaster […]
When you think potential All-Stars to come out of Seattle, Logan Gilbert, Bryce Miller, Emerson Hancock, Randy Arozarena, and Julio Rodriguez will be the first names that come to mind. These are the players who appear in team promotions and across highlight reels, but they are not the only ones who should be at the […] The post Dominic Canzone’s Rise Could Make Him an All-Star appeared first on Just Baseball .
Good morning! The Mariners returned home with a 6-2 win last night over the Los Angeles Angels. Furious George pitched a full eight innings with seven strikeouts, one walk, and just two earned runs, while his run support came in the form of two towering home runs by Cole Young and one from Dominic Canzone. […]
Mariners first baseman Josh Naylor is a former All-Star, a former first-round draft pick, and a fan favorite in Seattle. He has also been traded four times in the last decade, rare for a player of his talent. Naylor’s off-the-field…
The Mariners dominated the Angels in a bounce back 6-2 win on Monday. That’s really it. This game was quick. It was simple. And it was necessary after Sunday’s disastrous, hard-feelings loss in Cleveland. George Kirby was great. He had a few hiccups early, mostly limited to Zach Neto, and then worked through eight innings […]

June 29: Kennedy has reported to the team and is active for tonight’s series opener against the Angels. Seattle placed Refsnyder on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 27, with right knee inflammation to open a spot on the MLB roster. June 28: The Mariners announced that infielder Buddy Kennedy has been acquired from […]
The Seattle Mariners are rotating starting pitching with piggyback roles and a new strategy that could revolutionize MLB.
You stand alone in front of the growing crowd, their collective voices rising in a crescendo, feeding off of one another. “Piggyback!” yells one. “Piggybackburner!” yells another. “Dan’s in way over his head!” someone hollers, and then your body jolts back as the force of a ferry boat’s worth of garlic fries pummels your front. […]
We have the latest round of results from MLB Reacts. The first question has to do with which division leader needs to have the most urgency at the deadline: Since this poll went out, the Yankees have been surpassed in the American League East by the Tampa Bay Rays, the Mariners are now a half […]
Tacoma Rainiers Serving as a fantastic precursor to the Fourth of July this upcoming weekend, there were plenty of fireworks in an otherwise uninspiring 4-2 series loss for the Rainiers. Featuring one of the more animated brawls we’ve seen in recent years and plenty of homers, Tacoma, despite their losing effort, provided the fans in […]
In one of their toughest losses of the season, the Mariners have dropped below .500 and out of first place in the AL West with their 6-5 loss to the Cleveland Guardians yesterday. A solid start by Emerson Hancock was quickly undone after a five-run eighth inning by the Guardians erased the Mariners’ three-run lead. […]

The Mariners dropped back below the .500 mark today, as their 6-5 loss to the Guardians put Seattle’s record at 42-43. Despite the lackluster record, the M’s are only a half-game behind the Rangers for the AL West lead, and the crowded division race also has the Astros and A’s within two games of first […]
Austin Hedges and Josh Naylor had some verbal exchanges for each other during the Cleveland Guardians’ clash with the Seattle Mariners on Sunday night. Naylor and Hedges played together for four full seasons together on the Guardians and San Diego Padres. They last played together in 2024 before Cleveland traded Naylor to the Arizona Diamondbacks […] The post Guardians’ Austin Hedges makes wild claim right to Josh Naylor’s face appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Mariners finally broke through their three-run cap to score five runs in a game, but a bullpen meltdown in the eighth meant the Mariners took a loss anyway in the season finale against the Guardians, 6-5. The loss means the Mariners fall out of first place in the AL West, meaning Mariners fans don’t […]
Guardians 6, Mariners 5 Scoring four runs and winning: Victor Robles, .10 WPA; Emerson Hancock .20 WPA Scoring four runs and losing: Michael Rucker, -.29 WPA This is still a very good comment, even if the Mariners are Very Bad
A three-run homer from Randy Arozarena wasn’t enough for the M’s to overcome the Guardians last night, but they’ll look to both clinch the season series against Cleveland today and avoid setting a franchise record for consecutive games of scoring three or fewer runs. Lineups: Dominic Canzone unsurprisingly has the day off due to his […]
The Baltimore Orioles have had a frustrating 2026 MLB season thus far, currently sitting at 39-45 ahead of Sunday afternoon’s series finale against the Washington Nationals at home. The Orioles have played the last several games without catcher Adley Rutschman, who sustained a concussion in a recent game against the Seattle Mariners on June 18.

Happy Sunday everybody! I’m back! I sincerely hope that I bring some offense with me. Time will tell, as it so often does. The Mariners offense continues to spurt and sputter as it has now been THIRTEEN days since the team has scored more than three runs in a game. One way or another, the […]
The Mariners lost to the Guardians, 4-3, and are now 42-42 on the season. I am not a particular Douglas Adams fan but read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy as a middle-schooler, as one does, so I could understand my older cousins’ inside jokes. 42, of course, is the answer to ultimate question of […]
