Mariners Game #124 Preview and Discussion, 8/15/26: SEA at HOU

The Mariners season is likely over, but that doesn’t mean the fun has to stop here at Lookout Landing. Emerson Hancock takes the mound for the good guys today, and will oppose one of the skis tonight. No, not Jacob Misiorowski, nor Hayden Wrobelski, who face each other in Los Angeles — boy do I […]

Mariners News: Cal Raleigh, Rob Refsnyder, and Butch Huskey

Hello friends. I’m not sure I can necessarily call it a “good” morning after the Mariners suffered another heartbreaking loss last night, this time a 10-7 gutpunch extra-innings loss to the Astros. I’m sure many of you are here to escape such topics though, so let’s get you the rest of the league’s news and […]

Mariners Game #123 Preview and Discussion: 8/14/26, Mariners at Astros

I have recapped literally hundreds of Mariners games over the years and I’m not sure there’s one I’ve approached with more dread than tonight’s. Like, woke up this morning with a stone in my stomach, counting down the hours (derogatory), looming final/dentist appointment/“we have to talk” kind of dread anticipation. So, that’s fun. Lineups: News: […]

Series Preview: Mariners (57-65) at Astros (62-60)

It’s hard to believe after losing their series in New York, but the Mariners actually gained half a game in the Wild Card standings after salvaging a win on Thursday. The division is still the clearest path to the playoffs for Seattle since there are only two teams to leap frog in the AL West […]

Mariners News: Colt Emerson, Hunter Greene, and Buster Posey

Good morning everyone and happy Friday! The Mariners snapped their six-game skid yesterday in a 1-0 win over the Yankees. The team heads to Houston today for a key three-game series against the first-place club in the AL West, with first pitch slated for 5:10 PM PT. In Mariners news… Around the league…

Mariners send Colt Emerson to Triple-A, select INF Brock Rodden

The Mariners are shaking things up with their lineup, sending struggling shortstop Colt Emerson back to Triple-A and selecting longtime super-utility infielder Brock Rodden to take his place, per Ryan Divish. It’s a tough but necessary step for the 21-year-old shortstop, who has been struggling of late on both sides of the ball. Never one […]

Get Ready With Me: Mariners Win 1-0 in the Background

Logan Gilbert tossed six scoreless innings and the bullpen stepped up behind him to snap the Mariners six-game losing streak with a 1-0 win against the Yankees. We’ve reached the part of the season where I’m mostly watching for the love of baseball. I think we all know by now this whole “2026 Mariners” thing […]

Mariners Game #122 Preview and Discussion, 8/13/26: SEA at NYY

Hey we only have to do 40 more of these after this one. The competitive part of the Mariners season is largely over. They’re not too far out of the race, but they’re not good at hitting, pitching, running or fielding at the moment. It’s hard to see them getting hot and climbing back into […]

Mariners News: Willie MacIver, Scott Effross, and Riley Greene

Good morning friends! The Mariners couldn’t hang onto an early lead in last night’s game against the Yankees, dropping the middle match 10-5. The gods have cursed us with another Mariners baseball game today with first pitch slated for 10:35am PT. In Mariners news… Around the league… Anders’ pick…

Erik Erikson describes a 10-5 Mariners loss to the Yankees

If you don’t know about the psychologist Erik Erikson, in addition to having a pleasing name to say, he was a pretty cool guy who studied identity formation (with specific cultural contexts, way before anyone was doing that), describing eight distinct life stages, each guided by an existential question. The 2026 Mariners have been making […]

Mariners Game #121 Preview and Discussion: 8/12/26, Mariners at Yankees

Like a child in a Victorian workhouse, we sup on the thin gruel of this game preview in dim hopes it will sustain us through another punishing day of watching the 2026 Seattle Mariners. I think I’d rather have my hand caught in a spinning jenny. Heads up: today’s game is on ESPN. Because that’s […]

Mariners News: Dan Wilson, Rob Refsnyder, and Mike Maddux

Hello everyone! The Mariners’ slide continued yesterday in a 4-1 series-opening loss to the Yankees. The team will attempt to find some semblance of positive momentum in the middle match today, with Bryce Miller taking the hill against Will Warren. In Mariners news… Around the league…

Mariners walk into brick wall, apologize, walk right into brick wall again, lose to Yankees

The LL comments stopped working right about the time that Michael Rucker turned to watch his bases-loaded mess become a lead-losing base hit. Small mercies. Tonight’s 4-1 loss had the decency to come before sundown in Seattle, but the winter equinox is approaching far quicker for the Seattle Mariners than it is for the rest […]

Mariners Game #120 Preview and Discussion, 8/11/26: SEA at NYY

The Seattle Mariners have stuck a fork trident in themselves. And yet, they must continue. 43 games stand between Seattle and the finish line. Laying an egg on a crucial and emotionally charged homestand means the Mariners now enter their most daunting road trip of the season needing a swathe of unlikely victories to bring […]

Series Preview: Mariners (56-63) at Yankees (66-52)

This roadtrip has loomed large since last year, when the schedule first came out. Regardless of how the standings would look, we knew a nine-game slate against the Yankees, Astros and Brewers would be brutal. A year and change later, it’s still scary, but the silver lining of the 50th Flop is that it’s deadened […]

Seattle Mariners Minor League Roundup – Week Twenty

Tacoma Rainiers Tacoma unfortunately dropped this one to Las Vegas by a score of four to two, unable to take down a very solid Aviators squad that’s been excellent all year. Despite their losing record on the week, there were tons of great individual performances from some of the brightest stars on this roster; the […]

Mariners News: Cole Young, Shohei Ohtani, and Chris Sale

Good morning, foLLks, and happy Monday! The Mariners shidded and farded and frowed up their way to a 4-1 loss against the Rays yesterday to cap off being on the wrong end of a sweep over their 50th anniversary celebratory weekend. I can’t blame anyone for expecting anything different. Today is a merciful off day […]
