The Seattle Mariners have announced their 2026 Opening Day roster, with a few surprises compared to the spring’s outset. The M’s have been fairly fortunate with their health through Spring Training, but will see expected starting SS J.P. Crawford and starting RHP Bryce Miller on the injured list to open the year. Both players are […]
Doing the A’s and the Astros’ prospect previews was, to be honest, an exercise in schadenfreude. I had a great time doing it! But it’s time now for just freude, no schaden. Evaluators Overview Baseball America: 10th in organizational rankings, 4 prospects in Top 100 (SS Colt Emerson (#7), LHP Kade Anderson (#25), OF Lazaro […]
Good morning friends! The day is finally upon us: MLB Opening Day! The Yankees and Giants will kick off the 2026 season in a matchup broadcast on Netflix with first pitch at 5:05pm PT. The Mariners will get their season started tomorrow against the Guardians. Do you have a favorite Opening Day memory? Either an […]
Following on the heels of Julio Rodríguez and Noelvi Marte, Felnin Celesten was supposed to be the Mariners’ next big international signing success story. The Mariners gave him $4.7M to sign Celesten out of the Dominican Republic in 2023, the largest signing bonus they’ve ever handed out in IFA. However, injuries have slowed Celesten’s development […]
The next step in profiling Seattle’s shot at defending their AL West throne, and a potential American League pennant bid, comes on the other side of the ball. Seattle’s pitching staff has the easiest task in the sport, in the sense that their hitters face the toughest task. T-Mobile Park, with its predictable dimensions, chilly […]
Happy Tuesday! The Mariners concluded this year’s Spring Training with a 3-10 loss to the San Diego Padres, but a solid outing from starter Luis Castillo was one of the game’s highlights. Castillo pitched five innings and only gave up one run on four hits with five strikeouts. We are just two sleeps away from […]
It’s the last game of spring training and I thought it started at one but it started at noon, whoops sorry. Talk about it here! Luis Castillo pulls the final start of the srping, which feels bookend-y. Call this the “we’re just trying some things” lineup. Garver at first? Sure. Game information: Game time: NOW […]
In years past, we’ve concluded our AL West Previews with the opponents of the Seattle Mariners, letting the 40 in 40 series, various analysis pieces, and our general body of work as a staff stand in for a traditional season preview that, by Opening Day, can feel almost remedial. I cannot stress strongly enough the […]
Good morning! The Mariners secured a 4-2 win yesterday against the Chicago White Sox behind six dominant innings from Bryan Woo. He allowed one run on three hits with four strikeouts through 73 pitches. The Mariners will play in their final Spring Training game today (!) with Luis Castillo on the mound to face the […]
The next time Bryan Woo pitches, it will count for real. The Mariners beat the White Sox 2-1 in the next to last game of the preseason. Woo got the start and looked sharp. He needed just 73 pitches to get through his scheduled six innings. He struck out four, walked none, and gave up […]
It’s the penultimate night in Peoria, er, Glendale. Bryan Woo will get the ball in the Mariners’ next to last game of Spring Training. The next time we see him, it’ll count for real. Catching Woo today is newly appointed backup catcher Mitch Garver. The rest of the Mariners lineup is not quite what they’ll […]
Four, that’s right, four days to go until the games start meaning to mean! Until then, we’ll have to sate ourselves with whatever kind of scrap of news this is. Uh, alright? Nothing wrong with a little catching depth, I suppose? Korey Lee doesn’t have any options remaining and has had a productive spring, so […]
Good morning and happy Sunday everybody! We’re only three sleeps away from meaningful Major League baseball and that means rosters are being finalized and difficult decisions are being made in front offices across the league, all to bring us closer to the baseball we so desperately desire. And all so we can spend Thursday night […]
Colin Rea threw four efficient innings Saturday night in Peoria, Arizona and the Cubs defeated the Mariners 7-1. Rea threw 77 pitches (50 strikes) and generally looked like the solid pitcher he was for the Cubs most of last year. He’ll be in a long relief/spot starter role to begin the season and he seems […]
Ryan Brasier needs a job. This is said to be a blister issue: There was some weirdness with the MLB.TV signal. Ended up watching the Mariners telecast. Game results: Cubs 7, Mariners 1. Cubs 7, Padres 5. Miscellaneous: *means autoplay on, (directions to remove for Firefox and Chrome). {$} means paywall. {$} means limited views. Italics are often used on […]
If there was much to be seen in tonight’s game, it came early. Ironically, in a match up that was moved to the night time so as to mitigate the record heat wave scorching nearly the entire American West, the only things of major consequence came while the sun was still up. A sloppy first […]

Go get ‘em, Colin.
We are down to the closest representations of real regular season baseball that Spring Training has to offer. In a televised night game, Seattle is running out a largely-accurate lineup for their big league club, with their starters likely to go as long as possible and George Kirby making his final tune-up start before the […]

Hello friends and happy Saturday! The Mariners have been fully re-formed following the conclusion of the World Baseball Classic, and they celebrated by putting together their best performance of the spring in a 20-8 win over their soon-to-be Opening Day competitors — the Cleveland Guardians. With his two home runs, Cole Young is now third […]
So it turns out having a fully staffed team makes spring training games a little more fun to watch. The Mariners made Cleveland pitching miserable tonight, stacking a 10-run inning in the second that featured three home runs en route to a 20-8 victory, with most of those Cleveland runs coming in garbage time. If […]
Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers’ top prospects prevailed in their first Spring Breakout game on Friday evening, as they beat the Seattle Mariners’ prospects by a 7-3 final behind a big homer and a solid day from the bullpen. With Bishop Letson on the mound, the Mariners got out to a quick lead in the […]
