Mariners Game #111 Preview and Game Discussion: 7/31/26, Twins at Mariners

We’re back and not better than ever. The Mariners open one of their longest homestands of the season tonight, starting with the Twins for three games before the Tigers and Rays come to town, with the Rays series falling during the “50 Seasons” celebration. Also, it’s Fireworks Night, and you’ll just need to trust me […]

2026 MLB Trade Deadline: Open Thread

For many people, the trade deadline is one of the most exciting times in the baseball season, right up there with Opening Day and the playoffs. I am not one of these people, but I acknowledge and respect those who are. Feel free to use this as a space to chat about all the trade […]

Series Preview: Mariners (53-57) vs. Twins (55-55)

With that terrible road trip in the rearview mirror, the Mariners return to Seattle for the longest homestand of the season. At four games under .500, they’re a game away from matching their season’s nadir — they were five games under on April 17. That makes this series against the Twins all the more important. […]

The Blame Game

Nobody gets to fire two managers in two years. Jeff Passan went on the radio on Tuesday and placed the blame for the Mariners season at the feet of manager Dan Wilson. Passan heavily implied Wilson should be replaced, using logic I’ve seen plenty throughout the season: This roster is far too talented to be […]

Mariners News: A.J. Minter, Max Clark, and Paul Sewald

Hello everyone, and happy Friday! The Mariners closed out their road trip with a whimper, dropping the series finale to the Dodgers 6-2. The team is in a rut, so I’m not going to ask you about them. Instead: what do you have planned for this upcoming weekend? In Mariners news… Around the league…

Dodgers bludgeon Mariners 6-2 with measuring stick

Baseball reminds us of our capacity for change. Not just incremental shifts that drip from the faucet at a glacially accelerating pace until one day they’ve reshaped the surface beneath them. Rapid, sudden changes in a sport notorious for its meandering heart. In roughly the time a new human being requires to gestate and be […]

Mariners Game #110 Preview and Discussion, 7/30/26: SEA at LAD

Yesterday, Ryan noted the Seattle Mariners had the chance to do something dumb. The option remains on the table tonight, particularly with Shohei Ohtani receiving a rest day. Against the resurgent Roki Sasaki and the Los Angeles Dodgers, assuming simplicity is simple-minded itself. But Bryan Woo is facing his greatest enemy, with nothing to do […]

Mariners News: Chase Silseth, Logan O’Hoppe, and Tarik Skubal

Good morning friends! The Mariners had yet another underwhelming offensive performance last night, dropping the middle game to the Dodgers 4-2. Given the complete inevitability of the Dodgers, is there any team you hate watching the Mariners play more than them? In Mariners news… Around the league…

Mariners lose to Dodgers 4-2

The Mariners lost another one of these. The lineup struggled for most of eight innings on Wednesday, before the bottom of the order scratched a run across in the eighth. They’d get another in the ninth. But the Dodgers lineup put tons of pressure on Emerson Hancock and the Mariners defense, eventually taking game two […]

Mariners Game #109 Preview and Discussion, 7/29/26: SEA at LAD

The Mariners have the chance to do something dumb tonight. After a month of terrible baseball and losing three-of-four to the Rangers over the weekend, it wouldn’t have been weird for the Mariners to get swept by the Dodgers. But the Mariners played an exceptionally entertaining game last night to narrowly take one from the […]

Mariners News: Emerson Hancock, Curtis Mead, and Casey Schmitt

Good morning everyone! The Mariners are coming off a much-needed vibes-cleansing 7-6 victory over the Dodgers thanks to some heroics by Dom Canzone and…Rob Refsnyder? Is this the turning point for the Mariners’ season, or just a brief moment of joy in a year mired in mediocrity? In Mariners news… Around the league…

Mariners Find Missing Pieces, Beat Dodgers 7-6

I’m no stranger to losing important things. “Severe” ADHD will do that to a person. I went through 14 student ID cards in college. I once lost my smartwatch for a year. I know exactly how much a replacement drivers license costs. In fact, just yesterday I found my wedding ring after several months, under […]

Mariners Game #108 Preview and Discussion, 7/28/26: SEA at LAD

The Mariners are looking at a get-right series against the 67-39 Los Angeles Dodgers. Fun Fact: The Mariners are currently on pace to reach 67 wins on August 31st. *puts hand to ear* I’m actually being informed that the fun fact was not even slightly fun. My apologies to those affected by this error. Lineups: […]

Series Preview: Mariners (52-55) at Dodgers (67-39)

That series in Arlington wasn’t a complete disaster thanks to that come-from-behind victory on Sunday, but the Mariners were pretty thoroughly outplayed by the Rangers over the last four games. That puts Seattle in a really tough position. The team clearly isn’t good enough as constructed — they’re also supposedly a buyer ahead of the […]

Mariners Game #107 Preview and Discussion, 7/27/26: SEA at TEX

After some late-inning heroics from Dominic Canzone and Randy Arozarena, the Mariners have a chance to split this weird wrap-around four-game set against the Rangers to end up back where they started before heading to Arlington. After a couple of soul-crushing losses on Friday and Saturday, I will take it. Lineups: It’s a full day […]

Seattle Mariners Minor League Roundup – Week Eighteen

Tacoma Rainiers Despite a recent injection of much needed talent, the Rainiers dropped their weekly series to a paltry Reno team that’s struggled nearly as much as the Rainiers have this season. The bevy of injuries the Mariners’ big league roster has had to endure this season has severely hampered the Rainiers’ ability to compete […]

Mariners News: Dominic Canzone, Shea Langeliers, and Cody Bellinger

Good morning! The Mariners snapped a four-game losing streak last night with their 6-4 win over the Texas Rangers. A three-run home run by Dominic Canzone ignited the offense in the seventh inning and powered the team to an important win on the road. George Kirby gets the start this afternoon against Rangers RHP Kumar […]
