The Kansas City Royals are going for a road sweep today in the Pacific Northwest, yes, you read that right a ROAD sweep. Last night, the Royals once again snatched a clutch victory in extras from the Seattle Mariners, allowing the Royals to win their third series this season and their first on the road. […]
Cal Raleigh will not return to the Mariners lineup Sunday. The Mariners look to prevent a sweep against the Royals. The pitching staff blew a strong performance by the lineup on Friday, and the lineup blew a strong performance by Emerson Hancock last night. After an up and down April, they have started May on […]
Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh is out of the lineup for a second straight day with lingering pain in his right side. The team has not moved to put him on the IL, awaiting results of imaging he had done yesterday. Raleigh first felt the pain after Friday night’s game, and said he became concerned when […]
Sounders settle for a point after scoring early.
The Seattle Seahawks, picking at 32, entered the 2026 NFL draft with just four picks. They left with eight rookies, and a recent report from ESPN’s Brady Henderson portrays the dominant trait John Schneider targeted for the whole class. Sources inside the draft room shed light on how the Seahawks arrived at those decisions, the […]
The Mariners were a little bit of everything in April, which is exactly what they were supposed to be. The Mariners finished April with a .500 record. The month included a five-game losing streak, a four-game losing streak, and two four-game winning streaks. They were projected in the preseason as favorites in their division and […]
In Today’s Links: highlights from Rookie Minicamp, Seaside Joe looks at the life of a practice squad regular, position changes in the building for our Seattle Seahawks, another favorable look at the Jadarian Price pick, and a little bit more. Happy Sunday, y’all. Have a good one. Take care of yourself and others, and you’ll […]
The selection of Jadarian Price at No. 32 in the 2026 NFL Draft raised eyebrows for more than one reason. It wasn’t just about the player profile — it was the context. The Seattle Seahawks were coming off a championship run with limited draft capital, yet still chose to invest in a running back, a […]
Mariners pitching honored Randy Johnson and the Mariners offense honored Felix last night in the worst game of the year (so far). Salvaging a game in this series against the Royals would feel like a minor miracle, but the M’s will try anyway at 1:10 PST. Happy Sunday everybody! In Mariners news… Around the league…
If you needed more evidence that it’s no longer April, the Royals gave it to you tonight. Coming into May, the Royals were 1-5 in one-run games. So far in May, they’re 2-0 in those games and in all games. For most of the game, that didn’t seem possible. Had the Mariners won, Emerson Hancock […]

Having gone 2-2 in their first four games on the road, the Royals have a prime opportunity to take at least one of the next two and end their road trip 3-3. That record would be all anyone could have expected when the Royals headed west. However, if they win today, they’ll have guaranteed that […]
Logan Evans was the pitcher on the mound in the Ichiro number retirement game last year; this year it will be Emerson Hancock’s turn for the Randy Johnson number retirement game. For the Royals, their reigning organizational Pitcher of the Month, Seth Lugo, will take the mound. Unlike last night’s surprising slugfest, runs could be […]
There are very few hitters in the minor leagues more fearsome than Lazaro Montes right now. The Mariners #6 ranked prospect, Montes posted one of the finest statlines of his young career in Saturday afternoon’s contest against the Wichita Wind Surge. Ending the game 3-5 with 3 homers and a walk, Montes batted home half […]
Less than an hour before the Mariners were set to take the field for Randy Johnson number retirement night, the Mariners dropped a significant lineup change, removing starting catcher Cal Raleigh and inserting backup catcher. At the same time, the Tacoma Rainiers announced a roster change, scratching their starting catcher for Saturday, Jhonny Pereda. This […]
The Mariners made a surprising move to bolster their bullpen today, calling up right-handed reliever Nick Davila from Double-A Arkansas. In a corresponding move, LHP Josh Simpson – who was just summoned yesterday from Triple-A – was returned to Tacoma. The Mariners roster is now full at 40 players. If you’re not familiar with Davila’s […]
Last night wasn’t fun, but the Athletics have a chance to flip the script this afternoon in Game 2 of this weekend series against the Cleveland Guardians. The A’s are still in first place even after last night’s loss but we got the Mariners hot on our heels so let’s keep them at bay with […]
The only running backs selected in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft came out of the same Notre Dame backfield. Well before the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks closed out the first by taking Jadarian Price at No. 32, the star-starved Arizona Cardinals selected the electrifying Jeremiyah Love at No. 3 overall. Scot […]

Good morning everyone and happy Saturday! The Mariners lost a late-game thriller to the Royals last night 7-6. Hopefully things turn around soon for Bryan Woo, because we’re going to need him. Importantly, today is Randy Johnson jersey retirement day! What is your favorite Big Unit memory from his time with the M’s? In Mariners […]

Tonight’s match was about the closest you can get to playoff baseball on May 1. Bryan Woo and Cole Ragans are both considered aces on their staffs, though you might not know it from how they performed tonight, and each took home a no-decision. There were multiple lead changes, and the bullpens were tested to […]

We should be in store for an excellent pitching matchup tonight as Cole Ragans faces off against Bryan Woo. Weirdly, I can find no evidence that Woo pitched on Saturday or was injured or ill, even though it was his turn in the rotation. But he’s basically picked up this season where he left off, […]
