The old saying in baseball is you win 50, lose 50, and it’s what you do with the rest that counts, but what the adage doesn’t take into account is the number of games that are Cursèd. For the Seattle Mariners, those Cursèd Games seem to usually happen in spring in the Midwest, or in […]

The Seattle Mariners are fresh off what is both their first road series win and their first three-game series sweep of the season and headed to Minnesota to face a Twins team that is rebuilding after being sold for parts at last year’s trade deadline, which should be a harbinger of momentum finally shifting in […]

After sweeping the Cardinals in St. Louis, the Mariners continue their annual early-season cursèd march through the Midwest with a stopoff in Minnesota, the famous not-roof-havers. The Twins are fresh off their own sweeping, at the hands of former Mariner Ben Williamson and the Tampa Bay Rays. They’ve lost five straight and nine of their […]

Tacoma Rainiers Tacoma took the weekly slate with a series score of 4-2, securing a heroic comeback in the final game of the six game series to secure an extra-innings W. The bats, once icy cold, have emerged from their hibernation and are looking far more like we’ve come to expect. It wouldn’t be a […]

Offense was thin on the ground for the Mariners in their series finale against the Cardinals, but once again the bats were able to produce just enough for a 3-2 win, neatly bookending the 3-2 win from the series opener with a wild, potentially season-altering one sandwiched in between. As Victor Robles would say: sorry […]

After a wild one yesterday, the Mariners have secured a series win and come into today looking for a sweep. Emerson Hancock takes the mound for Seattle and will look to improve on a slightly shakier performance last time out when he surrendered three homers in a shortened start against the Athletics. Lineups: Josh Naylor […]
The Mariners drew more fans in April than they have in 20-plus years. T-Mobile Park has hosted 539,263 fans so far in 2026. That’s the second most in March and April in the history of the park, only bested by 619,771 fans in April 2002. The average attendance over 17 games (31,721 fans) is sixth […]
The Mariners won a barn-burner in St. Louis yesterday and look to Emerson Hancock to secure a sweep at 11:15. Happy Sunday everybody! In Mariners news… Around the league… Nick’s pick…
I have no idea whether this was a good game or not. It was a game in which Bryan Woo gave up four home runs for just the second time in his career; it was a game in which Dominic Canzone and Connor Joe both had pinch-hitting game-tying RBI hits. It was a game in […]

Seattle looks to build on what, for the 2026 Mariners, counts as a formidible winning streak of two games into today’s mid-morning contest against the Cardinals. The M’s will hand the ball to Bryan Woo, who’s been his regular spectacular self for most of the year and is coming off a six-strikeout performance against the […]
Good morning everyone and happy Saturday! The Mariners got a rare one-run road victory yesterday, holding off the Cardinals 3-2. The M’s turn to Bryan Woo today in a morning contest. As Woo is my favorite of the bunch, I’m always excited for a Woo start day. Which Mariners starter do you get most amped […]

The Mariners had a fairly underwhelming homestand, going just 3-3 against a pair of division rivals in the Rangers and A’s, but a walkoff from Josh Naylor on Wednesday salvaged much of the vibes. After an off day yesterday, Seattle embarks on its first Midwest road trip of the year, kicking things off with a […]
The Seattle Mariners and the Tampa Bay Rays remain peas in a pod. On Friday, the Mariners announced they’ve traded recently DFA’d reliever Casey Legumina to the Rays for minor league RHP Ty Cummings. Despite some difficult outcomes with Seattle, Legumina’s capability to pitch multiple innings and tease a Paul Sewald-esque pitch mix. Unfortunately for […]
It’s the time honored LL tradition of everyone talking about what kinds of music they’re enjoying lately. This time I’ll give you a theme: What music do you dust off when the sun comes out? Music has been very seasonal for me for decades now. There are just some bands and some genres that I […]
We’re a week away from the end of the first month of the season, and the Mariners still haven’t found their groove. The walk-off win on Wednesday afternoon was a nice way to escape a sweep at the hands of the A’s, but it wrapped up a disappointing 3-3 homestand against AL West foes. Thankfully, […]
