Mariners Game Preview #68, 6/9/26: SEA at BAL

Ah, it’s that time of the season. The Mariners will roll out… a lineup to face the Orioles on Tuesday in Birdland. Victor Robles is leading off. Ryan Bliss, Rob Refsnyder, and Patrick Wisdom each get a start. Cole Young is at short. Not ideal! But hey, this isn’t the worst lineup the Mariners have […]

Cal Raleigh homers twice in rehab start with Tacoma

In his first rehab start with the Everett AquaSox on Sunday, Cal Raleigh went 1-for-3 with a single. Serving as the DH, he also hit a deep flyout, just missing a home run. He got that home run today and more in his rehab start for Triple-A Tacoma, a 15-3 drubbing of the Albuquerque Isotopes […]

Rating your takes: What is Colt Emerson’s ceiling? What is his floor?

In the last three weeks, Colt Emerson has made his MLB debut with the Seattle Mariners, notched his first MLB hit with a home run, hit his first career triple, hit three more home runs, and made some stellar plays at third base. Emerson still can’t legally buy a beer yet, but his scorching first […]

Mariners News: Josh Naylor, J.P. Crawford, and Chris Bassitt

Good morning! A fun 6-3 win over the Baltimore Orioles was powered by a Josh Naylor grand slam and two key challenges. Logan Gilbert takes the mound this afternoon at 3:35 PM against Orioles LHP Trevor Rogers. In Mariners news… Around the league… Becca’s picks…

Mariners challenge their way to win over Orioles, 6-3

The good thing about the punishing grind of an MLB season is it doesn’t allow a lot of time for wallowing. Just one day after the Mariners blew a winnable game in Detroit to drop a series against the lowly Tigers, they escaped with a win in Baltimore today in the series opener against the […]

Mariners Game Preview #67, 6/8/26: SEA at BAL

The Mariners will look to shake off a disappointing weekend series in Detroit – capped by a bummer of a walkoff yesterday – by opening a four-game series against the Orioles in Camden Yards. They’ll be doing so without their starting shortstop, though, as J.P. Crawford was officially placed on the injured list after missing […]

Series Preview: Mariners (34-32) at Orioles (31-35)

The Mariners opened their road trip with a particularly deflating series loss to the Detroit Tigers, but the good news is that now Motor City is in the rearview (for the regular season, anyway). Also fortunately in the rearview are the weird 10 a.m. PT start times; this week, they’ll be replaced by some good […]

Seattle Mariners Minor League Roundup – Week Eleven

Tacoma Rainiers Tacoma’s been in a major rut as of late. Down a large portion of their offensive fire power due to a variety of reasons, the already depleted pitching staff has been struggling to buoy the lineup and has subsequently led to some rather tough losses. Dropping four of six this week, the Rainiers […]

Mariners News: Cal Raleigh, Max Kepler, and Jameson Taillon

Good morning! A tough ending to their game against the Detroit Tigers yesterday handed the Mariners a series loss. The Mariners will continue their road trip with a four-game series against the Baltimore Orioles beginning this afternoon, with Emerson Hancock taking the mound for the 3:35 PM start. In Mariners news… Around the league…

Tigers walk off Mariners thanks to sloppy play, 5-4

The Mariners lost a super frustrating game today, dropping the series to the Tigers and letting a winnable game slip away from them, despite getting a strong start from Luis Castillo. But once again, the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead late and the offense failed to capitalize on scoring opportunities that could have opened up […]

Mariners Game Preview #66, 6/7/26: SEA at DET

The Mariners evened the three-game series against the Tigers yesterday on the back of a stellar outing from Bryce Miller and just enough offense for a comfortable 4-0 win. With another victory today, they’ll have sealed four straight series wins, and Luis Castillo will look to build on a successful stint with the piggyback in […]

On the latest

The Mariners are in first place. I don’t have anything well thought out for you today. I wanted to do something about what’s changed from April to May. But would you look at the time it’s already June 7. There will be no clean narrative here. Still, I’ve got a few quick hitters on recent […]

Mariners News: Josh Naylor, Jorge Polanco, and Royce Lewis

Good morning and happy Sunday everybody! The Mariners won yesterday thanks to a dominant performance from Bryce Miller, who now has the longest active scoreless streak of any pitcher in the league against one team, and some early offense. The Mariners will go for the series win this morning at 10:40 PST. In Mariners news… […]

Mariners and Bryce Miller shut out Tigers to get back in win column

The Mariners halted a brief two-game losing skid today – over which the pitching staff surrendered 14 runs – with a shutout 4-0 win against the Tigers. Bryce Miller made his first non-piggyback start of the year and delivered six strong innings against the Tigers, one-hitting Detroit over six innings while striking out a season-high […]

Mariners Game #65 Preview and Discussion, 6/6/26: SEA at DET

Well, yesterday’s kickoff of a ten-game, three-city ~East Coast road trip could have gone better, with the M’s falling 7-3 to the Tigers in a rainy, muddy mess and J.P. Crawford needing to leave the game thanks to a Framber Valdez hit-by-pitch. It’s a new day today, though, and what better time to bounce back […]

Mariners News: Bryce Miller, Corey Seager, and Ramón Laureano

Good morning folks, and happy Saturday! Last night, the Mariners fell hard to the Tigers 7-3 in the series opener in Detroit. J.P. Crawford suffered an apparent hand injury in the game on a hit-by-pitch, but appears to have avoided significant damage according to the team. This will be my last Moose Tracks post for […]

Mariners drop first game of road trip 7-3

There’s a baseball cliche when a pitcher has an OK night but still takes the L: “He just made the one mistake, and it got punished.” It’s tempting to tag that to Bryan Woo in tonight’s 7-3 loss to the Tigers, but I’m not so sure it’s true. The pitch you’d want to pin that […]

Mariners Game #64 Preview and Discussion: SEA at DET, 6/5

Do you like barrels? Hard hit balls? Dingers and gap-to-gap doubles? Too bad! We’ve got Bryan Woo facing off against Framber Valdez today. 174 pitchers have faced at least 500 batters since the start of 2024, and of them, Woo has the 6th lowest wOBAcon (damage on contact), and Valdez, the 23rd lowest. On the […]

Series Preview: Mariners (33-30) at Tigers (25-38)

The Mariners had their eight-game win streak snapped on Wednesday, but they maintained their 2.5 game lead over the Athletics with the series win over the Mets. Now the team embarks on their longest road trip of the season, a 10-day affair that will take them through Detroit, Baltimore, and Washington DC.  Thanks to this […]

Julio Rodríguez Is an All-Star… Going Forward

About this time last year I made the case for Julio Rodríguez as an All-Star. It was a pointed response to the discourse of the day: his latest slow start at the dish. I didn’t think it was a fair (or even accurate) characterization of his season to that point. At the time, Julio was […]
