Mariners News: Juan Soto, Joe Ryan, and Curtis Mead

The Mariners suck. Not much else to say right now. They have a chance to suck just a little bit less and salvage a modicum of dignity against the Rangers this morning at 11:35 am PST. Happy Sunday everybody! In Mariners news… Around the league… Nick’s pick…

Mary Oliver recaps a 7-1 Mariners loss to the Rangers

The world is full of many good things, none of which were contained in today’s Mariners 7-1 loss to the Rangers, but many good things nonetheless. In praise, then, of goodness, of beauty, of things that are not watching the 2026 Mariners continue to fail and frustrate and fail again. (That’s right, readers, we have […]

Mariners Game #105 Preview and Discussion: Mariners at Rangers, 7/25/26

Well. This series certainly didn’t get off to the start the Mariners had hoped for. Bryan Woo takes the mound tonight to try to help turn things around for the Mariners. Lineups: J.P. Crawford returns from wrist soreness and rejoins the lineup, but Cole Young remains in the leadoff spot. Today’s game information: TV: FOX […]

Mariners News: Spencer Steer, Danny Jansen, and Addison Barger

Good morning everyone and welcome to the weekend! The M’s dropped a hard-fought first game of the series to the Rangers 5-4, yet another crushing loss for a team that keeps stacking them up. Somehow, the Mariners are just a good weekend away from reclaiming the AL West crown. Despite their recent poor performance, do […]

Canzone can, but Mariners cannot, lose to Rangers 5-4

As you might have heard, the 2026 Seattle Mariners have struggled against left-handed pitching. Dominic Canzone, meanwhile, has been having a tremendous year at the plate. These things are related. For most of the season, the Mariners have opted to platoon Canzone, preferring to use right-handed hitters such as Rob Refsnyder, Víctor Robles, and Mitch […]

Mariners Game #104 Preview and Discussion: 7/24, SEA at TEX

Big Tex gets a chance to be bigger than Texas tonight. Bryce Miller, owner of the nickname, will face off against the Rangers in Arlington at 5:05 PT. Since coming back from an oblique strain that cost him the first quarter of the season, Miller has been having the best year of his career. He’s […]

Three paths to a perfect trade deadline for the Seattle Mariners

The 2026 season has not been a fairy tale follow-up to the historic 2025 campaign for the Seattle Mariners. The .500-hugging club has sounded less like a well-oiled machine and more like my favorite Steel-type evolutionary line from the fifth generation of the Pokémon games. But the second half has been where Seattle has turned […]

Series Preview: Mariners (51-52) at Rangers (51-51)

After a backbreaking loss to the Reds on Wednesday, the Mariners head into this huge series against the Rangers still searching for answers to their woes. The trade deadline is quickly approaching and this series in Texas along with next week’s series in Los Angeles against the Dodgers will have a lot of bearing on […]

Mariners part ways with assistant hitting coach Bobby Magallanes

Because not even the off-day can come without some bummer Mariners news, Adam Jude of the Seattle Times reports that the Mariners are parting ways with assistant hitting coach Bobby Magallenes. Magallanes joined the staff prior to the 2025 season along with hitting coach Kevin Seitzer, both of whom had been unceremoniously fired by Atlanta […]

Looking for Josh Naylor’s Missing Power

Josh Naylor leads the Mariners in hits and that’s disappointing. Naylor picked up two more hits on Wednesday to give him nine since the All-Star break. He’s reached base safely in all 14 games since July 4, collecting 17 hits in 53 at bats. He now has 98 hits on the season — one more […]

Mariners News: Bobby Witt, Jr., José Ramírez, and Samuel Basallo

Good morning everyone! The Mariners fell to the Reds in heartbreaking fashion yesterday, with a 5-3 score putting them below .500 more than 100 games into the season. The Mariners — and fans — take the day off today before heading to Texas for a critical four-game series. Let’s check in on everything happening around […]

Mariners lose a backbreaker, 5-3

It wasn’t a start to the second half that the Mariners could afford to have. After Eduard Bazardo allowed the bottom two hitters of the Reds order to reach in the top of the seventh Wednesday, Sal Stewart punished him with a two-out, three-run homer just over the wall in right field to give Cincinnati […]

Mariners Game #103 Preview and Discussion: CIN at SEA, 7/22

The Mariners look to avoid falling below .500 in the rubber match of a three-game set against the Reds Wednesday afternoon. Emerson Hancock (3.66 FIP) gets the ball for the M’s with the hopes of keeping the Reds’ lackluster offense (90 wRC+, 29th in MLB) subdued. On the other side, Brady Singer (5.44 FIP) will […]

Two in-house relief options for the Mariners bullpen

While it’s far from the only problem with the team, the “B” side of the Mariners bullpen has been an issue this season, as the team has cycled through various names trying to find some surehanded help to prop up an injury-ravaged ‘pen. With the latest injury update forecasting that Carlos Vargas, Matt Brash, and […]

Mariners News: Miles Mastrobuoni, Marco Gonzales, and Jack Flaherty

Good morning friends and happy Wednesday! The Mariners failed to get their offense going last night against Chase Burns and the Reds, dropping the middle match 4-2. How have you felt watching Eugenio Suárez find success during this series? I can’t help but be happy for him, even if I think letting him walk was […]

Mariners Check Heat, Get Burned, Feel Alive

That was a relatively enjoyable loss. The Mariners lost 4-2 to the Reds on Tuesday, snapping a three-game win streak. They got dominated by Chase Burns early but chased him quick, then nearly clawed back into the game against the bullpen. The go-ahead hit remained elusive, and that was the difference, but this was overall […]

Mariners Game #102 Preview and Discussion, 7/21/26: SEA vs CIN

Time for a heat check. The Mariners have won three straight to climb back above .500 and retake the lead in the AL West. They’ll look to make it a streak on Tuesday. It might be a tough task. The Mariners are without J.P. Crawford again after he was a late scratch Monday with wrist […]

Gabe Speier is back, but not better than ever. Yet.

After struggling through April, Gabe Speier took a trip to the Injured List to let a little inflammation in his shoulder subside. What’s happened since then is a puzzle: His stuff looks better than ever, but while his ERA is a gorgeous 2.05, his xERA, FIP, and SIERA are at all-time highs for his Mariners […]

Cole Young keeps it simple

His go-to coffee order is a vanilla latte. He prefers to stick close to the team hotel during road trips rather than exploring the city. His walk-in outfit, as captured by team photographers, is usually joggers and a plain t-shirt. You could, fairly, call it boring; Cole Young prefers to call it keeping things simple. […]
