Series Preview: Mariners (0-0) vs. Guardians (0-0)
The weight of expectations is now a burden the Seattle Mariners must carry with them this year. To rise so high last season, only to be let down in the end, eight outs away from the franchise’s first World Series appearance. To stand so close to unknown territory, only to be turned away, produces the […]
If it all goes right
Here we go again. Just one short year ago, the Mariners found themselves in Game 7 of the American League Championship Series. It took them 49 seasons to figure out how to get there. Even after having had a half-century to figure it out, their path was non-linear. Last year, the traditionally dominant pitching looked […]

This is not your dad’s good Mariners projection. FanGraphs has been publishing playoff odds since 2014. That’s over 12 years of daily computer projections. In that entire history, the Mariners have had better odds of winning the AL West than they do today on just 45 days. Heading into 2026, thier projection has the Mariners […]

How to watch the Mariners in 2026
With expectations higher around this Mariners team than any other this decade, it makes sense that fans want to know how to watch their hometown nine this season. Frustratingly, despite the early announcement of a new streaming option, details about the cable situation for non cord-cutters have been thin on the ground. Finally, we have […]

The Seattle Mariners announce their 2026 Opening Day roster
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 […]
If it all goes wrong
There were only 37. He was sure of it. One, two, three, four- he was sure of it. Well, maybe 35 or 39, as he tallied the former players who’d clustered across the field. But definitely not 50. It was a weak group, too. There were the obvious names, the guys who always showed up […]
AL West Preview – Mariners Prospects: (Still) Plenty of Gas in the Tank
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 […]
What to eat at T-Mobile Park in 2026
One of the most taxing editorial assignments every year is going to the Mariners food preview to try all the ballpark’s newest offerings. I know, I know, I am history’s greatest martyr. Here’s what I recommend based on one afternoon of eating as much as I possibly could stuff into my face, along with where […]

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 […]
Mariners Prospect Ratings: #8, Felnin Celesten
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 […]
AL West Preview – Mariners Pitchers, band of horses
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 […]
Mariners News, 3/24/26: Bryce Miller, Pete Crow-Armstrong, and Spencer Strider
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 […]
Luis Castillo sharp in final game of spring training
The Mariners lost the final game of spring training to their complex-mates the Padres today, 10-3, but that is not important. Here’s what’s important: Luis Castillo strong in final appearance of spring Castillo went five innings and gave up just one run on four hits with five strikeouts. He got the Padres hitters to put […]
Mariners Spring Training Game #30: Open Game Thread
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 […]
AL West Preview – Mariners Position Players, defending the crown
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 […]
Mariners News, 3/23/26: Mitch Garver, Luke Raley, and Cristopher Sanchez
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 […]
Mitch Garver wins job, backs it up with homer in Mariners Spring Training win
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 […]
Mariners Spring Training Game #29: Open Game Thread
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 […]
Mariners News, 3/22/26: Bryce Miller, Ty France, and Dylan Moore
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 […]
Cubs maul Mariners, but everyone stays cool in 7-1 loss
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 […]
Mariners Spring Training Game #28: Open Game Thread
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 […]
Mariners News, 3/21/26: Logan Gilbert, Dylan Crews, and Bennett Sousa
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 […]
In Opening Day preview, Mariners thrash Guardians, 20-8
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 […]
