Latest news and updates about the Mariners
Morning, all! The Rangers traded for Jake Burger last year in the hopes to improve on their weak 2024 offense, but things didn’t exactly work out as planned. Burger is aiming to turn things around in 2025 after undergoing wrist surgery. We also have a podcast that asks if the Mariners were the perfect team […]
The 2025 Mariners are no more. I already wrote my season recap. I intentionally published it before the playoffs to feel like I could say something objective without the benefit of hindsight. The playoffs are random, if you hadn’t heard. They’re a short series of coin flips. The best player in MLB can lose. The […]
To ease the pain of all Mariners fans, the Seattle Seahawks came out flying on Monday Night Football in the first 20 minutes, before trying everything possible to give the game to the Houston Texans. Despite their efforts, the Seahawks held on for a 27-19 win, climbing to 5-2 on the season. I won’t say […]
And then there were two. Unsurprisingly the Los Angeles Dodgers are representing the National League and from a near flatline pulse the Toronto Blue Jays marooned the Mariners en route to their first World Series appearance since 1993. Pundits have quickly dismissed the series as a formality in which the Dodgers will female dog slap […]
I was seven years old when I had my heart broken for the first time. Funnily enough, it wasn’t by the Mariners. The year was 2001. The Mariners had lost in the ALCS the year before, but I was too young to understand what that meant. My brain must have undergone some maturation that winter […]
In Mariners news… Around the league…
Hey Tim, Last time I wrote* was to exalt. Today it’s in desolation. Mariners baseball, huh? Last night, your Seattle Mariners lost Game 7 of the ALCS to the Toronto Blue Jays. I refuse to get into bullpen management discourse with you again, but suffice to say that it was a heartbreaker. That’s kind of […]
The Braves have signed catcher Austin Nola to a minor league deal, according to USA Today’s Bob Nightengale. The contract contains an invitation to Atlanta’s big league spring camp. Nola appeared in 345 MLB games with the Padres and Mariners from 2019-2023, posting some very solid numbers at the plate before his production tailed off…
Halfway through Game 7 of the American League Championship Series between the Seattle Mariners and Toronto Blue Jays, I finally, finally got the chance to sit down and watch some baseball. At the time, Seattle led. But I didn’t care who wound up winning—I’d be rooting for the winner of this game in the World […]
With the Detroit Tigers’ season officially over at the hands of the Seattle Mariners, it’s time to take a slightly too early look at some upcoming roster situations. Our very own Patrick covered the offseason timeline as a whole here, so I won’t be getting into too much detail there. Instead, I’ll skip straight to […]
This year’s World Series teams are officially set. The Blue Jays managed to come back from 2-0 and 3-2 deficits in the ALCS to defeat the Mariners in Game 7 last night, thanks to a three-run homer from George Springer. Toronto is now poised to face the Dodgers after L.A. swept the Brewers out of…
We have five days to talk about last night’s game (and I won’t get tired of doing that). The Mariners had their own bullpen usage controversy. Seventh inning. Bryan Woo has given up a walk and a single. With the addition (I spelled that addison at first) of a bunt, the Jays had the tying […]
Scott Servais is the latest name to surface in the Orioles’ search for a new manager. The New York Post’s Jon Heyman reports that the O’s have interest in the former Mariners skipper, but it isn’t known if Servais has been formally interviewed by the team. Reports also emerged yesterday that the Twins were considering…
I have a lot to say about this season, but for now, I will just say thank you to everyone who stuck with us during this long ride and never gave up. This is the best Mariners team I have ever witnessed in my 22 years of existence and I am forever grateful to share […]
A big heads up for the fantasy-inclined among you: if you haven’t yet checked out BN Fantasy , now is the time to do it. The higher-ups decided to do a huge deposit match over the next couple weeks – up to $500, which is massive – so do yourself a favor and check out the details here . The Mariners and Blue Jays played a thriller of a Game Seven, with George Springer homering late to give the Blue Jays the lead and the eventual win. I’m sure MLB was relieved that the ALCS turned into su...
As we wait for the World Series to begin, here are three things we’ll be keeping an eye on around the baseball world throughout the day today: 1. World Series matchup set: The Mariners will go another year without making it to the World Series. After leading for most of the game, Seattle righty Eduard…
Good morning. The inherent and powerful loser energy of the Seattle Mariners was on full display last evening against a team that walked into ALCS Game 7 with their star player wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs sweater. The Leafs, mind you, are on a record-tying seven consecutive NHL playoff game 7 losing skid. Vladdy Jr. […]
The ALCS came to a close last night with the Blue Jays ending up the victors. They are returning to their first World Series in nearly 40 years thanks to their winning over the Mariners, 4-3. While the game will rightfully be remembered for George Springer driving a baseball over the wall for a three […]
Happy Tuesday, Red Sox Nation! Last night, the Blue Jays defeated the Mariners to set up a World Series matchup with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Unfortunately, the series doesn’t start until Friday, so we’ve got three days with no baseball until the Fall Classic kicks off. Personally, I’ll be rooting for everyone to have a […]
The last ticket to the World Series was on the line on Monday, with the Mariners and Blue Jays clashing in a Game 7 that promised to cap off a thrilling ALCS. After dropping the first two games, Toronto rallied to even up the series before Seattle moved closer to the Fall Classic than they’ve […]
Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters! The final game of the ALCS was played last night, which means the Fall Classic is nearly upon us. The Toronto Blue Jays staged a dramatic comeback win in game seven to defeat the Mariners and move on to the last round of the postseason. Game one will be played in […]
This was not the night Seattle sports fans wanted, it’s not the night Seattle sports fans deserved, but it wasn’t a lost cause for Seattle sports. While the Seattle Mariners came agonizingly close only to fail to reach their first World Series, the Seattle Seahawks overcame their many self-inflicted wounds to defeat the Houston Texans […]
It was always going to Game 7. The Mariners have given fans a magical ride this season, but they haven’t always made it easy. Whether extra-inning games, or late-inning heroics, or winning streaks followed by losing streaks, or pushing things to the make-or-break moments, the Mariners have been playing Game 7 in one form or […]
Unfortunately, the Seattle Mariners blew Game 7 against the Toronto Blue Jays and will not be going to the World Series for the first time. Fortunately, the Seattle Seahawks are winning 14-6 at the half against the Houston Texans. Unfortunately, they have squandered many opportunities to be up by more. A Drake Thomas fumble return […]
Mariners 3 Blue Jays 4 That was a terrific series. The Mariners played great. We’ll do a real recap later but…. We had ten hits but other than a run in the first (Springer walked, Vlad singled, and Varsho singled home Springer) we didn’t do much until the seventh inning. In the seventh: We should […]
