Mariners lay an egg, drop series to Tigers with 11-0 loss

The Mariners played a baseball game Thursday. They lost, 11-0. Heading into the series with the Detroit Tigers, the Mariners were slightly favored on paper to take two of three games. After all, the Mariners managed to avoid Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize, who were both traded away by the Tigers at this week’s trade […]

Mariners Game #116 Preview and Discussion: DET at SEA, 8/6

Things turned awfully testy during the late innings of Wednesday night’s 4-2 Mariners victory over the Detroit Tigers, which evened the pivotal series for both teams in an American League playoff race that is heating up more and more with every passing day. A half-inning after Cal Raleigh was drilled in the ribs with 95 […]

Luke Stevenson finds his groove, wins Northwest League Player of the Month

After a scorching hot month of July, Mariner catching prospect Luke Stevenson mashed his way to the top of the High-A Northwest League offensive charts and earned himself the title for the league’s player of the month. Stevenson, who has rebounded admirably after a rough stretch in late spring and early summer, caught fire after […]

Mariners News: Taylor Ward, Carlos Vargas, and Angel Genao

Good morning friends, and happy Thursday! Tempers flared last night as benches cleared in a 4-2 Mariners victory after both squads traded hit-by-pitches. Importantly, it was also a comeback outing for Bryan Woo who tossed seven shutout innings. Is this the moment he finally reverts to ace form? In Mariners news… Around the league…

No love lost in 4-2 Mariners win against the Tigers

Tonight some friends of mine are marking one year of dating with a celebration at our regular karaoke night where everyone was encouraged to write a love note and put it in a “love box” to be read from in between songs at karaoke – where everyone is, of course, encouraged to sing love songs. […]

New Mariner Taylor Ward is not just here to walk (but that’s okay too)

As we’ve written about extensively over the past few days, the Mariners didn’t make splashy moves this trade deadline, but they did make moves to address their biggest weaknesses in the bullpen and right-handed hitting outfield, even if those returns might not move the needle for fans. Both Seranthony Dominguez, the reliever acquired in the […]

Mariners News: Rob Refsnyder, Mitch Garver, and George Lombard, Jr.

Hello everyone! The Mariners lost an uncompetitive game to the Tigers yesterday with an 8-0 final score. At least Ryan Blake provided an entertaining SpongeBob-themed recap. Anyway, let’s get you caught up on the latest news from Marinersland and elsewhere. In Mariners news… Around the league… Anders’ picks…

Mariners visit Rock Bottom in 8-0 loss to Tigers

How tough am I? How tough am I? I watched that entire Mariners game… with the audio on. The Mariners couldn’t cut it at the Salty Spittoon on Tuesday, losing to the Tigers 8-0 in the first game following the trade deadline. Emerson Hancock pitched fine but had some poor defense behind him. Seranthnoy Domínguez […]

Mariners Game #114 Preview and Discussion, 8/4/26: SEA vs DET

And we’re back. The Mariners return after an off day Monday with a brand new roster. Taylor Ward is here and hitting eighth. Seranthony Domínguez is here and sitting in the bullpen. Brendan Donovan is here and penciled in at the hot corner. Emerson Hancock is still here and standing on the mound. Mitch Garver […]

Mariners move on from struggling veterans Rob Refsnyder, Mitch Garver

Per Ryan Divish, the Mariners are expected to move on from two veterans post-trade deadline: off-season acquisition Rob Refsnyder, and backup catcher Mitch Garver. C Jhonny Pereda is reportedly being called up to fill Garver’s spot. It’s been a difficult tenure for both Refsnyder and Garver for the Mariners. Refsnyder was signed this off-season in […]

Seattle Mariners: What Questions Did the Trade Deadline Answer?

While the rest of the league enjoyed one of the more exciting trade deadlines in recent memory, Seattle remained curiously quiet, with many of us still glued to their phones for an hour or so after the deadline, hoping for one last trade to hit our dopamine-addled brains. But at the end of the day, […]

MLB

Series Preview: Mariners (55-58) vs. Tigers (54-58)

Bobbing back from the trade deadline, mostly unscathed (positively and negatively), the Mariners take on the Tigers for a three-game, midweek set at home. Think of it as a buffer, a practice round, a get-right, momentum-builder before the Rays arrive. The practice of declawing a cat has been deemed so cruel that in many countries […]

Seattle Mariners Minor League Roundup – Week Nineteen

Tacoma Rainiers It was another brutal week for Tacoma, dropping five of six to a strong River Cats squad at home. Despite the early success from Lazaro Montes and Michael Arroyo, it’s been tough sledding for this Tacoma Roster all year, really falling short on the mound on a nightly basis. The stretch run is […]

Mariners trade for balance over substance at deadline

The Mariners didn’t get better at the trade deadline, but they did get different, and that makes them better. The Mariners made two deals this week. They traded Luis Castillo to the White Sox for Seranthony Domínguez, Nolan Jones, cash, and a prospect that I liked but who doesn’t factor into 2026. They also traded […]

Mariners News: Taylor Ward, Adley Rutschman, and Luke Raley

Wait what the hell? The day I signed up to cover links turns out to be the day after the trade deadline? They should really announce the date of the trade deadline in advance to avoid this kind of problem. It was a busy day around the league, though a number of rumored names stayed […]

Grading the Seattle Mariners Trade Deadline

With the 2026 MLB trade deadline having come and gone, the Mariners find themselves in the midst of a heated playoff race in need of a major roster shakeup. Always active on the trade front, Jerry Dipoto, Justin Hollander, and the rest of the Seattle front office spun a pair of deals to improve their […]

Mariners acquire OF Taylor Ward for Alex Hoppe and two minor league arms

The Seattle Mariners have reportedly acquired veteran OF Taylor Ward from the Baltimore Orioles, per multiple reports. In exchange, Seattle is sending reliever RHP Alex Hoppe, as well as prospects RHPs Brock Moore and Harrison Kreiling. The 32 year old Ward is under contract just through the remainder of the 2026 season. Seattle has desperately […]

Rock’s ripple: Luis Castillo’s enduring impact on the Mariners

Luis Castillo is no longer a Mariner, but his impact on the rotation – and the club itself – will be felt for years. Castillo came to the Mariners in 2022 as part of a splashy trade deadline deal with the Reds, joining a staff with established veterans Robbie Ray and Marco Gonzales, as well […]
