Felix is ours.
The Mariners lost another tough one in the later innings in today’s spring training game against the Angels, who staged a three-run comeback in the ninth inning to snatch victory away from the Mariners, who now stand at 3-7 on the spring. Angels starter George Klassen looked tough today in his three-inning sample, busting fastballs […]
After a restful off-day, the Mariners are back in action today with another televised game. J.P. Crawford returns to the lineup today at DH for the first time since the opening game of spring training, while Bryan Woo makes his second start of the spring. This is also the first time the Mariners are seeing […]
By our means of ranking prospects here on the site, RHP Christian Little is largely de facto roof of a tier of M’s prospects. Very little separated Little, Tyler Cleveland, Alex Hoppe, Jared Sundstrom, Mason Peters, and Charlie Beilenson, while Thursday’s prospect will have as much separation from Little as he from Beilenson at 19th. […]
A day ago, there was cause for concern and/or curiosity depending on your perspective of the Sacramento Athletics. Today, the same is true, but inverted in its perspective as we shift from the fearsome and frightening young position player core of the new A’s onto their highly suspect pitching staff. In their first season in […]
Happy Tuesday! The Mariners are back in action today with Bryan Woo scheduled to start against the Los Angeles Angels at 12:10 PM. The World Baseball Classic exhibition games also continue today, and we will get our first look at the different Mariners players representing their respective countries. Which exhibition game are you most excited […]
Our trip through each AL West rival continues this week with a look at the Oakland Sacramento Las Vegas Athletics. With a target arrival date in Las Vegas of 2028, this period of limbo for the Athletics is a crucial time to set the foundation for a competitive ballclub by the time they arrive in […]
My dad turned 64 this weekend, and so far things are looking good. I still need him, and he’s been well-plied with an assortment of Thai food, homemade brioche and apple cobbler. He taught me about rhythm and keeping time one afternoon while we sat on the floor in his office, my clumsy five-year-old hands […]
Good morning! The Mariners embark on their first off-day of Spring Training today, with the team getting a break in live game action. Which player has stood out to you the most after the first week and a half? In Mariners news… Around the league…
The Mariners lost today’s game against the Rangers, 9-4, and are now 3-6 in spring training, which will happen when half your roster is off at the WBC. But despite the absence of regulars, today’s game offered plenty of intrigue for those who know where to look. Before he left for Team USA, Cal Raleigh […]
Happy Sunday! Major League Baseball games that count will be played this month. Logan Gilbert is on the bump today, and Ryan Sloan will make his spring debut. It’s a good day. Lineups: The players have officially departed for their World Baseball Classic teams, leaving us with a lineup that won’t be the Opening Day […]
Happy Sunday everyone! It’s becoming a bit of a pattern for the Sunday links to prominently feature Kade Anderson. I wonder if that will end next week. I honestly hope not. The kid is so electric he has me wondering about other undeniable spring standouts and which of them ended up turning out the best […]
Don’t call it a debut. Since his family didn’t come to see this, Kade Anderson says his first game action as a member of the Mariners’ organization doesn’t count as a debut. But whatever noun you use to describe it, the adjective is “impressive.” Using a fluid, repeatable delivery, Anderson sat 94-95 with his fastball, […]
Today’s Cactus League game features the Mariners facing off against their Peoria sister squad Padres for the second time this Spring. The headline is that Kade Anderson, the third overall pick of the 2025 Draft, starts for Seattle. These will be his first pitches in game action since joining the organization. Anderson throws from the […]
Hello friends, and welcome to the weekend! Last night the Mariners dueled in the desert with the fearsome Snakes, losing 3-1 in what Kate aptly described as a snoozer. Speaking of sleep, I’m coming to you live after finally getting a decent night’s rest. I am a pretty picky sleeper. Not on purpose, mind you. […]
It’s another latercap, brought to you by my charming inability to plan ahead and impetuous decision-making, which has led to me sitting in the parking lot of this Peoria Lowe’s using their free wi-fi to push out a recap of a 3-1 Mariners loss to the Diamondbacks that will be as stale as old coffee […]
As Spring Training hits its stride and the Mariners move past their first week of games, Luis Castillo — La Piedra — takes the rock for the first time in 2026. Castillo, despite an up-and-down regular season, was an absolute hero during the postseason and we are all looking forward to seeing what he has […]
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 […]
The Angels are stuck. Stuck with an aging Mike Trout, signed through 2030 with nearly $200 million left on his 12-year contract he signed in 2019. Stuck with paying out nearly $40 million on Anthony Rendon’s disaster of a free agent contract signed in 2020. Stuck with an owner who doesn’t even recognize that winning […]
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 […]
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 […]
