The San Diego Padres have had quite the turnaround in the last week. After opening the season with a middling 5-5 record, they’ve gone 5-1 in the six games since, making them the second club to reach 10 wins (behind only the rivals up the freeway). That turnaround was capped off by a four-game sweep […]

There's some serious competition for the sports fans' dollars in Seattle these days. Between the Seahawks, the Mariners, and the 'coming soon' rebirth of the SuperSonics, the Seattle Kraken are quickly losing relevance. The team will miss the playoffs for the third straight season. Major changes are needed. In fact, a complete overhaul, writes Matt Calkin in the Seattle Times. The fervor surrounding this franchise has dwindled down to a flicker over the past three years. .. ...

Coming out of the All-Star Break in 2025, the Seattle Mariners had some juice. They’d faltered from their scalding April-May surge, ceding the division lead to the Houston Astros at the start of June with a brutal 4-13 stretch from May 24-June 11th featuring multiple losses to Houston and dismal sweeps. A crucial, prescient drubbing […]

Mops are on the table, I repeat, mops are ON the table. The Seattle Mariners have won their first series of 2026, and have the mopportunity to send the reeling Houston Astros on their way in an ambulance.

Tacoma Rainiers Tacoma dropped the series against the Sugar Land Space Cowboys, losing four of six on the week with little life shown throughout. Hopefully they’re able to shake this one and get back on the right track. The weekly check in on boy-wonder Colt Emerson is less flattering this week. Going 6-23 with seven […]

It would be difficult to assert that any road trip has gone worse for the Astros. It started with taking one of six games from two of the worst teams in baseball. It ended with a four game set against the division rival Mariners. It is not officially over even as you are reading this, […]
Logan Gilbert needed this game almost as much as I needed Logan Gilbert to have this game. I’ll admit I was nervous at the beginning when the game started with Jose Altuve hitting a line drive into centerfield. But things quickly turned around when Josh Naylor deked a move back to first base that sent […]

The Mariners have a chance for their first series victory tonight. I was going to say “sweep” but then I remembered the Mariners and Astros actually wrap up this four-game set tomorrow at 1:10 p.m. Still, this would be as good a time as any to take their first series of 2026. They have the […]

Abreu suffered yet another late inning failure last night in taking the loss against the Mariners. At this point, it’s kind of past ugly. This is full blown concern. What is wrong with Bryan Abreu? Abreu has been one of the most dominant relievers in baseball for the last four seasons. He’s recorded at least […]
The Mariners are swinging slower and hitting worse, but connecting these dots isn’t as simple as it seems. Bat speed is down for half the Mariners’ lineup over the first 2 1/2 weeks of the season. These batters are swinging 0.7 mph slower on average than they were last year. It’s become a fixation in […]

Saturday’s game against the Rays was not pretty viewing for Yankees fans. The Yankees held two separate late leads against Tampa Bay, but couldn’t hold onto either. In the 10th inning, the Rays took advantage of the auto-runner and bunted the Yankees to death, eventually scoring twice in the frame to overtake the Yankees. With […]
The game looked lost early for the Mariners on Saturday. It was not. The Astros were all over Luis Castillo from the jump. They lead 7-2 when they chased him in the fourth inning. Things felt final — some even called it final. But Cal Raleigh homered, Julio Rodríguez homered, and the Mariners offense roared […]
