Latest news and updates about the Mariners
Happy Friday! We’ve got a whopping seven games of Mariners Spring Training under our collective belts and it’s high time to foolishly prognosticate! Here are some prompts: Sound off in the comments, make some BOLD and outlandish predictions, and let’s get ready for another 3 weeks of practice baseball. Go Mariners.
Gooooood morning friends! Happy Friday. Yesterday, the Mariners staved off a late-game surge by the Guardians, pulling out a close 8-7 victory. I received live play-by-play updates via text for this one from my dad, who, like many of you, makes a regular pilgrimage to the Phoenix area this time of year. My conversation with […]
This recap is late because it is being typed out on the bar of a lovely establishment in Twin Falls, Idaho, called Scooter’s. I am on my way to spring training and listened to this game – even though it was televised – while driving up and down various mountain passes. This country hilly as […]
It’s Bryce Miller’s turn to make his spring debut. Like his rotation-mates, Miller is a tinkerer, but he’s also pretty faithful about posting on social media, so we’ve gotten to see his off-season progression as he’s been working away, seeming to focus especially on slider shapes. Obviously we’re going to be watching to see where […]
After a dominant 2025 season across two separate levels, Tyler Cleveland joins our Mariner prospect ranks at #15 this season. Given a boost thanks to recent departures from the system, Cleveland represents the last of the true relief types on our list and carries some of the highest floor of any prospect in the back […]
Howdy everyone! The Mariners certainly uh….played a spring training game yesterday, tying the Royals 8-8. It’s still that period of Cactus League play where almost literally nothing that happens matters and only like 30% (don’t quote me on that) of at-bats taken or pitches thrown are by people who will meaningfully contribute to the MLB […]
If you planned on killing some time this afternoon by watching some Mariners Cactus League baseball – or more enticingly, Bryan Woo’s first outing of 2026 – you were out of luck. For the first time this spring, we were confined to the narration of Rick Rizzs, Gary Hill Jr., and Charlie Furbush, with some […]
The Royals take on their biggest rivals in baseball today – the Seattle Mariners. Noah Cameron makes his Cactus League debut. Does he actually have to “win” a rotation spot? Kameron Misner is in the lineup – he’s been up five times this spring and has yet to put the ball in play with two […]
After yesterday’s wild 12-10 loss to the White Sox in which they used eleven (!) pitchers, the Mariners jaunt over to Surprise to take on the Royals, and Bryan Woo will make his first start of the Cactus League. Other than Rob Refsnyder getting his first look in the outfield of the spring and Cole […]
When the Seattle Mariners delivered the final rock to the windshield of the Angels organization in late summer of 2023, they sunset anything approaching justified contention in Anaheim for seasons to come. Unfortunately for Orange County, the Angels had shaken their purse and raided the couch cushions year after year. Some of that has come […]
In recent years, the Mariners have developed a bit of a reputation as a major pitching lab. Not just through their minor league system, but also the success stories of journeyman relievers coming through Seattle and turning middling careers into All-Star/Team USA appearances. A part of that is that the Mariners have a very specific […]
Good morning everyone! In case you missed it, the Mariners played a typically wild spring training game against the White Sox yesterday, losing to those pesky Sox by a 12-10 score. Whenever the Mariners play the White Sox, I can’t help but think of my parents’ friends Bill and Karen, who have remained diehard fans […]
It was a doozy of a Spring Training game in Peoria, Arizona, on Tuesday as both the White Sox (4-1) and Seattle Mariners (2-3) offenses exploded for 28 hits with the South Siders persevering to snag their fourth win. Both pitching staffs stumbled through the nine innings, with 19 hurlers making an appearance across both […]
Diane. It’s February 24th, 12:10 pm, mountain time. My investigation, in all it’s twists, turns, detours, and non-sequiturs has led me to the Peoria Sports Complex in the northwest corner of the Phoenix metropolitan area. Along the way, I stopped at the Whataburger just across the New River. And I have to say, it lived […]
Lefthander Anthony Kay will be making his Spring Training debut with the Chicago White Sox as Tuesday’s starting pitcher as the South Siders face the 2025 AL West division champion Seattle Mariners. Kay was signed as a free agent by Chicago in early December, hoping to make a comeback in the majors after two years […]
The Mariners are hosting the South Side Sox in Peoria Sports Complex this afternoon, and giving George Kirby his first innings of work of 2026. Following yesterday’s 0-3 loss, the Mariners are sending out a suspiciously Major League-shaped lineup, with Michael Arroyo and Colt Emerson serving as the obligatory “guys who are just happy to […]
White Sox outlast Mariners in Spring Training slugfest Battle of league-worsts ends in walk-off bomb White Sox debubble the Brewers, 5-2 White Sox report card is all A’s, 11-2 White Sox club Cubs, 8-1
The only player in this year’s top twenty that joins our rankings from another major league organization, Alex Hoppe has received more coverage this offseason than he’s likely ever gotten in his life. In what will be his third stand alone article in the span of three months, our staff placed Hoppe 16th in the […]
Shamelessly stealing this question from Jacob Hausdorf in the Moose Tracks yesterday because once Star Wars comes up, that’s just like tossing a package of snausages into a kennel, but I thought this question merited some focused discussion: Which non-Mariners pitcher and hitter are you most excited to watch this spring? Bonus if they’re in […]
Good Morning! The Mariners fell to the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-0 in yesterday’s Spring Training action. Logan Gilbert’s first start of the spring showcased his deadly splitter as he worked through two scoreless innings, allowing one hit with two strikeouts and two walks. Gilbert reiterated recently that his goal for every season is 32 starts […]
Alex Vesia pitched a scoreless inning on Monday against the Seattle Mariners at Camelback Ranch, which in itself wasn’t all that irregular. After all, the left-hander has been a staple in the Dodgers bullpen for four years, including 142 scoreless appearances lasting at least one inning last season during that time, most on the Dodgers. […]
Well, that was more spring baseball. The Mariners fourth Spring Training game on Monday was more of the same: weak at bats, sloppy play, and a bunch of names so unremarkable they didn’t even bother printing them on the jerseys. I still enjoyed it, though. These games might be meaningless, but they are still baseball, […]
The Dodgers are on a roll to begin the spring as they notched their third consecutive victory with a 3-0 shutout win over the Seattle Mariners on Monday. Landon Knack was given the start for Monday’s contest, making quick work of the Mariners by facing the minimum in the first inning while tossing just nine […]
The Dodgers play their first home game of the spring as they take on the Seattle Mariners at Camelback Ranch. Landon Knack gets the start for the Dodgers. MONDAY GAME INFO
Hey, we’re about 10% through Spring Training. Logan Gilbert makes his first start of the spring. Gilbert is one of the Mariners many tinkerers, and I’ll be watching to see if he debuts any new pitches or pitch shapes this afternoon. It’ll be nice to see him, regardless. Cole Young and Colt Emerson each return […]
