What happens if the Seattle Mariners miss the playoffs? A LL site discussion

In spite of a quietly efficient series win over Houston, the realistic hopes of a back-to-back playoff appearance for the Seattle Mariners are continuing to dwindle. We had a robust discussion on the topic last week in the staff Slack channel and it seems like something worth sharing with the LL community. Please weigh in […]

Series Preview: Mariners (59-66) at Brewers (77-48)

The Mariners managed to bounce back from that heart breaking loss on Friday to win the series against the Astros. Combined with the general ineptitude of the rest of the American League, that pair of wins helped Seattle climb to within two games of the final Wild Card spot and four games back in the […]

Mariners News: Brock Rodden, Joshua Báez, and Tugboat Wilkinson

Good morning, foLLks, and happy Tuesday! After enjoying an off-day on the heels of taking a three-game set against the Astros, the M’s kick off their third and final leg of the road trip in Milwaukee this evening. The first game of the three-game series will begin at 4:40pm Pacific time, with Bryce Miller set […]

Seattle Mariners Minor League Roundup – Week Twenty One

Tacoma Rainiers The Rainiers have been rolling as of late, taking five of six against Reno this week in what was one of their best series all season. This offense has been firing on all cylinders and finally looks like it’s capable of carrying a team. It’s unfortunately too late for the Rainiers to have […]

Mariner’s Game #125 Preview and Discussion, 8/16/26: SEA at HOU

The Seattle Mariners have followed up a playoff berth with a disappointing season that ended with similar hopes dashed, in particularly violent fashion on Friday. Then, in the first game of the off-season, those same silly Mariners went and won decisively and dare I say, entertainingly. Okay, so the season being over bit is hopefully […]

Mariners News: Matt Brash, Joshua Báez, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

The Mariners followed up the worst game of the year with a commanding win that would have been a lot more inspiring if it had come two weeks ago. Alas, I’m a beggar being a chooser. A win is a win. A series win tomorrow won’t fix everything, but it could be an important step […]

Mariners Beat Astros 10-5 in First Game of Offseason

That was an enjoyable baseball game. The Mariners beat the Astros 10-5 on Saturday in Houston. The offense strung together a bunch of hits early and found some power late. Emerson Hancock turned in another outing so good that it would have seemed laughable about this time last year. The season is over, of course, […]

Mariners Game #124 Preview and Discussion, 8/15/26: SEA at HOU

The Mariners season is likely over, but that doesn’t mean the fun has to stop here at Lookout Landing. Emerson Hancock takes the mound for the good guys today, and will oppose one of the skis tonight. No, not Jacob Misiorowski, nor Hayden Wrobelski, who face each other in Los Angeles — boy do I […]

Mariners News: Cal Raleigh, Rob Refsnyder, and Butch Huskey

Hello friends. I’m not sure I can necessarily call it a “good” morning after the Mariners suffered another heartbreaking loss last night, this time a 10-7 gutpunch extra-innings loss to the Astros. I’m sure many of you are here to escape such topics though, so let’s get you the rest of the league’s news and […]

Mariners Game #123 Preview and Discussion: 8/14/26, Mariners at Astros

I have recapped literally hundreds of Mariners games over the years and I’m not sure there’s one I’ve approached with more dread than tonight’s. Like, woke up this morning with a stone in my stomach, counting down the hours (derogatory), looming final/dentist appointment/“we have to talk” kind of dread anticipation. So, that’s fun. Lineups: News: […]

Series Preview: Mariners (57-65) at Astros (62-60)

It’s hard to believe after losing their series in New York, but the Mariners actually gained half a game in the Wild Card standings after salvaging a win on Thursday. The division is still the clearest path to the playoffs for Seattle since there are only two teams to leap frog in the AL West […]

Mariners News: Colt Emerson, Hunter Greene, and Buster Posey

Good morning everyone and happy Friday! The Mariners snapped their six-game skid yesterday in a 1-0 win over the Yankees. The team heads to Houston today for a key three-game series against the first-place club in the AL West, with first pitch slated for 5:10 PM PT. In Mariners news… Around the league…

Mariners send Colt Emerson to Triple-A, select INF Brock Rodden

The Mariners are shaking things up with their lineup, sending struggling shortstop Colt Emerson back to Triple-A and selecting longtime super-utility infielder Brock Rodden to take his place, per Ryan Divish. It’s a tough but necessary step for the 21-year-old shortstop, who has been struggling of late on both sides of the ball. Never one […]

Get Ready With Me: Mariners Win 1-0 in the Background

Logan Gilbert tossed six scoreless innings and the bullpen stepped up behind him to snap the Mariners six-game losing streak with a 1-0 win against the Yankees. We’ve reached the part of the season where I’m mostly watching for the love of baseball. I think we all know by now this whole “2026 Mariners” thing […]

Mariners Game #122 Preview and Discussion, 8/13/26: SEA at NYY

Hey we only have to do 40 more of these after this one. The competitive part of the Mariners season is largely over. They’re not too far out of the race, but they’re not good at hitting, pitching, running or fielding at the moment. It’s hard to see them getting hot and climbing back into […]

Mariners News: Willie MacIver, Scott Effross, and Riley Greene

Good morning friends! The Mariners couldn’t hang onto an early lead in last night’s game against the Yankees, dropping the middle match 10-5. The gods have cursed us with another Mariners baseball game today with first pitch slated for 10:35am PT. In Mariners news… Around the league… Anders’ pick…

Erik Erikson describes a 10-5 Mariners loss to the Yankees

If you don’t know about the psychologist Erik Erikson, in addition to having a pleasing name to say, he was a pretty cool guy who studied identity formation (with specific cultural contexts, way before anyone was doing that), describing eight distinct life stages, each guided by an existential question. The 2026 Mariners have been making […]
