The Seattle Mariners need a manager who can turn expectations into consistent execution. Torey Lovullo’s return to the Arizona Diamondbacks narrows down the search, but it should not lower Seattle’s standards after a 76-86 season cost Dan Wilson his job. The Arizona Republic’s Nick Piecoro took to X, formerly Twitter, on Thursday to report that […] The post 3 manager candidates Mariners must pivot to after Torey Lovullo’s Diamondbacks return appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Seattle Mariners are looking for a new manager after a disappointing season. It appears a well-known Major League Baseball manager is in the mix for the job. “Joe Espada could also be an option if the Houston Astros don’t bring him back,” The Athletic reported.

The Seattle Mariners have made use of the waiver wire to start October, claiming 1B/OF Michael Toglia from the Cincinnati Reds. The 28 year old switch-hitter missed much of the 2026 season with a dislocated right shoulder suffered while making a diving catch. The preparation for the surgery revealed a torn labrum as well, which […]
You can’t have your cake and eat it too. It’s a bit of an archaism, given that “have” can mean “eat”, but it’s an apt turn of phrase to describe the pitfalls the Seattle Mariners have fallen into from ownership on down. This attitude meshes with and reinforces their approach to risk; there is a genuine desire to win within the ownership group, but they aren’t willing to take on what they see as risks to revenue in order to achieve those wins. They believe - and the front office tells the...
The Michael Toglia Era in Cincinnati Reds history was short and sweet despite the man, who I’m sure is sweet enough, being anything but short. The 6’5” former 1st round pick of the Colorado Rockies spent the 2026 season within the Reds organization, plying his trade almost exclusively with AAA Louisville. As the injuries and […]
The Mariners have claimed first baseman Michael Toglia off waivers from the Reds, per a team announcement. It wasn’t previously reported that Cincinnati had placed Toglia on waivers. He’d been on the 60-day IL since early September after dislocating his shoulder. Cincinnati added Toglia on a minor league deal over the winter after Colorado dropped […]
The current Collective Bargaining Agreement in Major League Baseball ends on December 1, 2026. Most assume there will be a lockout of some kind as the owners and players fight for things they want, including the league desiring the implementation of a salary cap. The situation might even get to the point where the 2027 regular season is shortened or altered in some way. Things might get messy. What can’t happen during that undetermined amount of time? Trades and signings. That will be a...

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 […]
The Seattle Mariners never got the chance to discuss their managerial opening with Torey Lovullo before the Arizona Diamondbacks retained him on a two-year contract. Lovullo remained under contract through October 31, 2026, preventing the Mariners from contacting him unless Arizona granted permission. USA Today’s Bob Nightengale explained Thursday on X, formerly Twitter, why the […] The post Why Mariners couldn’t even discuss managerial opening with Torey Lovullo appeared first on ClutchPoin...
With Lovullo's future up in the air in Arizona, Seattle had been linked as a potential destination in recent days.
The Mariners have made several changes in the first week of their offseason. Manager Dan Wilson will not be returning. The club moved on from four other coaches. One person who will remain in place is president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto. The lead exec received the stamp of approval from chairman John Stanton earlier […]
At the start of every season, fans take a look at the Seattle Mariners roster and wonder if it will finally be the season when they win it all. This year was surely no exception.

From the Diamondbacks' Torey Lovullo to a rising minor-league star manager, who will the Seattle Mariners pick as Dan Wilson's replacement?
There have been many bad seasons in Mariners history, far more in fact than there have been good years. It took Seattle 15 seasons to have a winning record, after all, and this is the team that won 116 games in a season and didn’t make the World Series. The Mariners, of course, have never made the World Series, the only team in baseball with that dishonorable feat on its name. The 50-year history of the Mariners has been defined, more than that of any sporting club this side of the Buff...
Former Twins manager Rocco Baldelli has been linked to the Seattle Mariners after the Dan Wilson news.
Yesterday brought sweeping changes to the Mariners coaching staff on the heels of a disappointing 2026 season.

Dan Wilson, a former player who was loved by Seattle Mariners fans, should be a cautionary tale for St. Louis Cardinals fans who want to see Yadier Molina or Albert Pujols as manager.
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 […]
PHOENIX — As the Arizona Diamondbacks prepare for another early offseason, questions about the club’s direction have surfaced — specifically, manager Torey Lovullo’s place in the organization. Lovullo, whose contract with the D-Backs expires after this season, has emerged as a candidate for the Seattle Mariners’ managerial opening, according to The Seattle Times’ Adam Jude. […]
In 2025, the Seattle Mariners were just one game away from making it to the World Series but lost in the ALCS. That gave fans some hope for 2026, but all that came crashing down as they finished with a 76-86 record, 8 games behind the last Wild Card spot, and ended the Dan Wilson […] The post Mariners’ Manager’s Exit Triggers Major Shake-Up After Disastrous 2026 Collapse appeared first on EssentiallySports .
