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 […]

Mariners Game #121 Preview and Discussion: 8/12/26, Mariners at Yankees
Like a child in a Victorian workhouse, we sup on the thin gruel of this game preview in dim hopes it will sustain us through another punishing day of watching the 2026 Seattle Mariners. I think I’d rather have my hand caught in a spinning jenny. Heads up: today’s game is on ESPN. Because that’s […]
Mariners News: Dan Wilson, Rob Refsnyder, and Mike Maddux
Hello everyone! The Mariners’ slide continued yesterday in a 4-1 series-opening loss to the Yankees. The team will attempt to find some semblance of positive momentum in the middle match today, with Bryce Miller taking the hill against Will Warren. In Mariners news… Around the league…
Mariners walk into brick wall, apologize, walk right into brick wall again, lose to Yankees
The LL comments stopped working right about the time that Michael Rucker turned to watch his bases-loaded mess become a lead-losing base hit. Small mercies. Tonight’s 4-1 loss had the decency to come before sundown in Seattle, but the winter equinox is approaching far quicker for the Seattle Mariners than it is for the rest […]

Mariners Game #120 Preview and Discussion, 8/11/26: SEA at NYY
The Seattle Mariners have stuck a fork trident in themselves. And yet, they must continue. 43 games stand between Seattle and the finish line. Laying an egg on a crucial and emotionally charged homestand means the Mariners now enter their most daunting road trip of the season needing a swathe of unlikely victories to bring […]
Series Preview: Mariners (56-63) at Yankees (66-52)
This roadtrip has loomed large since last year, when the schedule first came out. Regardless of how the standings would look, we knew a nine-game slate against the Yankees, Astros and Brewers would be brutal. A year and change later, it’s still scary, but the silver lining of the 50th Flop is that it’s deadened […]

It’s a wonderful Tuesday so far and surely nothing terrible will befall us. Then again, the Seattle Mariners do play a baseball game today. Oh well, links! In Mariners news: Around the league:
50 seasons of Seattle Mariners baseball and happily overdosing on nostalgia to avoid the present moment
The Seattle Mariners have only eight more seasons of life as a team than I do as a human being. I’ve been trying to wrap my head around this for weeks and the math still isn’t mathing for me. I was born in 1983 and my first concrete memories of the Mariners start around 1990, […]
Seattle Mariners Minor League Roundup – Week Twenty
Tacoma Rainiers Tacoma unfortunately dropped this one to Las Vegas by a score of four to two, unable to take down a very solid Aviators squad that’s been excellent all year. Despite their losing record on the week, there were tons of great individual performances from some of the brightest stars on this roster; the […]
Mariners News: Cole Young, Shohei Ohtani, and Chris Sale
Good morning, foLLks, and happy Monday! The Mariners shidded and farded and frowed up their way to a 4-1 loss against the Rays yesterday to cap off being on the wrong end of a sweep over their 50th anniversary celebratory weekend. I can’t blame anyone for expecting anything different. Today is a merciful off day […]
Mariners lose same game they’ve lost all season, 4-1 to Rays
The 50 Seasons Celebration weekend instead turned into Groundhog Day as the Mariners were swept away by the Rays. The same problems that have plagued the 2026 Mariners all season long plagued them again today: a lack of connection in the lineup, a lack of situational hitting, too much chasing out of the zone, and […]

Mariners Game #119 Preview and Discussion, 8/9/26: SEA vs. TBR
So the Mariners’ 50th anniversary celebratory weekend hasn’t gone as planned on the field. Are any of that that surprised? Thankfully, both the alumni home run derby on Friday and the pregame ceremony last night reminded us that yes, there can still be joy in baseball. The M’s will look to salvage the series against […]
Mariners News: Rick Rizzs, Kade Anderson, and Max Scherzer
The Mariners celebrated 50 years of mostly mediocre baseball by playing yet another mediocre baseball game. They will attempt to appear more competent tomorrow at 1:10 PST. In Mariners news… Around the league…
Death at a Funeral
I’m never sure what to think about 1995. I’m about the same age as Cal Raleigh, and neither of us had been born. I’ve picked up the key points over the years. Ken Griffey Jr. was cool. Edgar Martinez was wise. Randy Johnson was wild. Jay Buhner was bald. And Lou Piniella was pissed. These […]
Voice of the Mariners Rick Rizzs to be inducted into Mariners Hall of Fame in 2027
In a move that surprised no one yet still wrung a fair amount of waterworks out of the assembled crowd – and the man himself – the Mariners announced that Rick Rizzs will be inducted into the Mariners Hall of Fame next season. Rizzs will be just the twelfth member of the Mariners Hall of […]

Mariners Game #118 Preview and Discussion, 8/8/26: SEA vs TBR
Well, this could be awkward. The Mariners will take another step in the never-ending Hell that is the 2026 season. They lost last night, two solo homers to one. The lineup continues to look lifeless, and the pitching has been the worst in the majors for weeks now. This is a very bad baseball team […]
Lookout Landing’s Top-50 Seattle Mariners
The enterprise of selecting the top 50 Seattle Mariners in the franchise’s history is a fun and challenging one. As such, we let our staff take a few cracks at it. Some folks leapt at it, while others are more eager to pick through the official list in the next few days when it’s revealed […]
A very merry Mariners Home Run Derby
This has to be the latest I’ve been at T-Mobile Park in years, if not ever. It’s 11 pm, and I’m in my Yes We Canó t-shirt circa 2015, and people around me are cheering Stefen Romero. It isn’t heaven, nor is it hell. Baby, it’s the Mariners Alumni Home Run Derby. The whole thing […]
