While the Mariners’ streak of scoring three or fewer runs didn’t end last night, they were able to pull out a win against the Guardians on their home turf. Another win would clinch the season series, so it would behoove the M’s to continue their winning ways – but maybe with some more runs this […]

The Seattle Mariners made a move in their shallow bullpen, optioning RHP Alex Hoppe to Triple-A Tacoma and recalling LHP Josh Simpson from the Rainiers. The move comes in front of two more games with the Cleveland Guardians, whose lineup is incredibly lefty-heavy. It’s the easiest to understand reasoning behind the move for the M’s, […]

The Seattle Mariners are struggling offensively. Yes, their team wRC+ is around league-average. Yes, they are finally running nearly their entire full healthy lineup out for the first time all season (save Bringo Dingo, may your groin heal in peace). But Seattle entered Saturday 25th in MLB in runs per game at 4.02, a 651 […]

Good day fellow Mariners fans, and happy Saturday! The M’s still haven’t scored 4 runs in a game, but they won anyway in the series opener against the Guardians last night by a 3-1 final. Between Cole Young and Colt Emerson, it’s been a road trip of fantastic homecomings. Who’s your pick to click tonight […]

Despite the Mariners winning this afternoon’s game against the Guardians, the big story was a standout performance from Cleveland’s starter, Joey Cantillo, and his newfound love of the curveball. The curveball’s fallen out of fashion in MLB lately. Just 8.2% of the pitches this season have been big benders, the second-lowest since 2008, despite the […]

The Mariners travel to the Mistake on the Lake to see if they can put some of their own recent follies behind them. They will have the luxury of playing a Guardians team that lacks its best player, as José Ramírez is still on the IL as a participant in the Year of the Hamate. […]
Amidst an overwhelming display of prospect prowess up and down the system, premiere shortstop Felnin Celesten headlined an active AquaSox lineup by hitting for the cycle in just seven innings. This marks the first professional cycle for Celesten and underscores what has been a truly remarkable stretch of offensive production. Since May 1st, Celesten is […]
The Mariners have not scored more than three runs in a single game since dropping 10 on the Nationals way back on June 12. Over the last two weeks, they’ve dropped from second in the AL in wRC+ (107) to eighth (101)! They’ve gone 4-7 during this cold snap and have lost merely a half […]
Good morning folks and happy Friday! The Mariners had another stinker of a performance last night, dropping the series finale to the Pirates 5-1 which brings them back to .500 on the season. The M’s will try to get back in the win column with the first of three games in Cleveland starting this afternoon. […]
In a year of anniversarial festivity across the United States, a less rounded celebration will make its annual occurrence in just a month and change. The 105th anniversary of the first radio broadcast of a baseball game will occur on August 5th. That initial voyage on the airwaves was appropriately undertaken by MLB’s most ancient […]
Pirates 5, Mariners 1 Hey Lloyd, do some delivery for the truck to the airport : J.P. Crawford, 0.06 WPA The audio truck today: Cole Young, -0.18 WPA, Rob Refsnyder in a single PA, -0.12 WPA Game thread comment of the day: This was laugh-out-loud funny and the highlight of the game.
Many years, the Seattle Mariners reaching the midway point of the season above .500 would be seen as a distinct success. Similarly, reaching Game #82 in first place by 2.5 games would be a state of abject glee. But the expectations are different in 2026, and the rubber match of Seattle’s series with the Pittsburgh […]
Joining arguably the best roster in college baseball this past season via transfer, Logan Reddemann, a 6’3 righthander, immediately stepped into the role of “staff ace” for UCLA and found consistent success despite his mid-major roots. Advertised as a high-floor strike thrower that lacked strikeout stuff, Reddemann had a serious uptick during his time with […]
Hello everyone! The M’s got their doors blown off last night in the middle game against the Pirates, falling 11-1. The Mariners lineup continued to sputter with their 10th game in a row failing to score at least 4 runs. Which hitter’s struggles are most concerning to you during this prolonged slump? In Mariners news… […]
Sometimes, hot dogs can go to hell, because it’s language itself that is a sandwich. Piracy is known today by its two modern utilizations – the crime of attacking ships at sea to rob them, and the illegal copying of media with the purpose of publication and sale. The former is a profession and a […]
Pirates 11, Mariners 1 Retired in Bend: Cal Raleigh, 0.06 WPA (hit some lasers, got barely rewarded) Real tired in Pittsburgh: Bryan Woo, -0.30 WPA (gave up some lasers, got constantly punished) Game thread comment of the day: At the midway point of the season, yes, yes it is.
The Mariners will reach the midway point in their regular season on Wednesday night in Pittsburgh. Bryan Woo will be on the mound as his team looks to secure a series win on the road and return to .500 in games away from T-Mobile Park this year. Woo is coming off one of his best […]
Good morning everyone! Pittsburgh native Cole Young had a homecoming to remember last night, delivering the go-ahead homer in a 3-2 Mariners victory over the Pirates. Importantly, Andrés Muñoz also looked electric last night. How are you feeling about our closer after his dominant showing? In Mariners news… Around the league…
There’s a running joke in one of my group chats that Cole Young looks like a Disney prince who decided to play baseball instead (show me the lie). In tonight’s series opener against the Pirates, Young Prince Cole had a game fit for a golden era Disney film. Making his first-ever appearance as a big-leaguer […]
Mariners 3, Pirates 2 Achieving a childhood dream: Cole Young, .20 WPA; Andrés Muñoz, .21 WPA Not doing that: Julio Rodríguez, -.15 WPA Game thread comment of the day: Very Cole, indeed. All aboard the Cole Train, it’s a Love Supreme.
The Mariners kick off a road trip in Pittsburgh, returning them to the sweaty mid-Atlantic region they’d just escaped a week ago. George Kirby will take the mound against the famously right-handed Mitch Keller, and all the lefty bats in Seattle rejoiced. Get up to speed on the Pirates in the series preview here. Lineups: […]
The Seattle Mariners have activated star outfielder Randy Arozarena from the 10-day injured list, where he’d been sidelined for the minimum number of days since a tweak that occurred while running hard for a bang-bang play at first base on June 13th. Arozarena has been an iron man by modern MLB standards, taking just two […]
Count me shocked that the Mariners were able to win one of their games against that trio of lefty starters the Red Sox rolled out last weekend. That win on Sunday wrapped up a 3-3 homestand and pushed the team another game ahead of their division rivals. Now the team embarks on a midwest road […]
Good morning! The Mariners are back in action today as they begin a three-game series with the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park. George Kirby gets the start at 3:40 PM against RHP Mitch Keller. With a thinning starting lineup due to injuries, who do you predict will step up in the major absences and be […]
