Site Roundtable: Does MLB Need to Adjust Hitter/Pitcher Balance?
This site discussion was sparked by a couple of posts on BlueSky by Mike Petriello and Céspedes Family BBQ. Mike pointed out that this year’s .206/.286/.341 hitting line in the playoffs is, while atrocious, somehow not the worst postseason hitting line by OPS in the divisional era – it’s 5th after some truly wretched seasons […]

Sunday Photo Caption Contest (10/4/26)
Welcome to the offseason. One benefit of writing here at SB Nation is we get access to two separate media libraries (Getty Images and USA Today) to help illustrate our stories and the home page. These are updated with dozens of photos each night, which means once a week or so a picture comes through […]

The first day of the Division Series is done and recency bias is working on me big time because I am struggling to see how any of the four 0-1 teams can overcome the deficit in these five-game series. I’ve always said the MLB playoffs are the best playoffs because it isn’t necessarily who has […]

The fatal flaw of the 2026 Mariners
There’s a well-worn business cliche that “hope is not a strategy.” Unfortunately for the 2026 Mariners, there was too much hoping, and not enough strategizing. In speaking with players and front office members over the last few weeks as the 2026 Mariners season limped to its agonizing, inevitable conclusion, one common theme jumped out: the […]

Why the Mariners kept their pitching coach staff intact despite rough second half performance
Yesterday brought sweeping changes to the Mariners coaching staff on the heels of a disappointing 2026 season. Jerry Dipoto, in meeting with the media, described the need for a “culture reset” in the organization, noting specifically the sense that the big-league club had gotten away from organizational principles preached in the minor leagues. “The performance […]
The Beautiful and Dan’d
The going got tough for the Mariners in 2026, but the tough never got going. The Mariners moved on from manager Dan Wilson on Sunday, providing a merciful conclusion to the 2026 season. It was an obvious decision, not just because changing managers is standard for a team that falls short of expectations, but because […]

Sweeping staff changes part of a “culture reset” for the Mariners
After parting ways with manager Dan Wilson yesterday, the Mariners announced sweeping changes to their coaching staff today. While pitching coaches Pete Woodworth and Trent Blank will return, the Mariners have now moved on from their hitting coaches with the exception of franchise legend Edgar Martínez, who Mariners GM Jerry Dipoto said would return “in […]
Mariners announce sweeping coaching staff changes following departure of Dan Wilson
The Seattle Mariners will look very different in the dugout in 2027. Monday morning, following the long-expected conclusion of Dan Wilson’s tenure as manager, Jerry Dipoto and Justin Hollander announced that the club will not retain longtime Bench Coach Manny Acta, Infield Coach Perry Hill, Hitting Coach Kevin Seitzer, or First Base Coach Eric Young […]
Thank you, Rick
At some point in my baseball fandom (likely from the start, I just couldn’t discern it yet) love for the game and love for the people tangled together into one big mass of feeling. And near the center of that tangle, inexorably interwoven, is Rick Rizzs and the Seattle Mariners. For 41 years, we have […]
