Which number is a better reflection of his true talent? OPS allowed isn’t the ideal measure for pitchers. I use it here as it’s […]

The Mariners announced their minor league coaching staffs for the upcoming season this week.

The cost-certainty for Seattle […]

All baseball thought experiments coming from know-nothings outside of the organizations (like me) suffer from a lack of information. Trade daydreams or hot-stove free agent woolgatherings are limited to public information, certainly missing relevant details such as unofficial or non-public budget constraints, internal evaluations of prospects, culture concerns or planned transactions that would make the […]

This story has been corrected in reaction to a mathematical error caught by user Tim B. In 2024, Logan Gilbert became one of MLB’s apex predators. He led baseball in innings pitched with 208.2 and finished second in the AL in strikeouts with 220. He was rewarded with a trip to the All-Star game and […]

If given the option to choose any player to throw the final pitch of the season for the Seattle Mariners over the past few years, Andrés Muñoz is the savvy selection. For Muñoz to be pitching, Seattle’s final game must be both close and meaningful. The 2023 and 2024 seasons ended on close victories, but […]

We’re getting ever closer to spring training and you know what that means: time to build the pitching pile. The Mariners did that today, acquiring RHP Yosver Zulueta from Cincinnati.

It’s time for Prospect Christmas, aka the official opening of MLB’s international signing period for the year.

The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum is a shrine to Remembering Some Guys. While some hold distaste for the organization’s arcane machinations, the Hall is a critical resource for something preciously integral to sports fandom: arguing passionately about things that only matter *because* we care about them. In this tradition, the staff of […]

As the holidays wind down and we return to the humdrum of normal life, it’s nice to be able to look forward to the start of spring training, only a short time away. While it is still the offseason and there are still plenty of talented players available, the market tends to cool down around […]

We thought we knew Matt Brash—a slider-slinging, fastball-fueled thrill ride of dominance and destruction with the occasional meltdown thrown in to keep you on your toes. But after Tommy John surgery kept him out for the entire 2024 season, Brash flipped the script in 2025, using two new pitches to get steadier results. He’s no […]

I’ve never viewed myself as a Miles Mastrobuoni truther. With all due respect, I’m not sure that many people have. If I started this article by asking if we’re underappreciating Miles Mastrobuoni, I don’t even know if you’d keep reading. The majority of his plate appearances, on the surface, seem to back up these claims. […]

This is J.P. Crawford’s last 40 in 40. Crawford is the longest tenured Mariner. He came to Seattle at the start of the retool way back in December 2018. Félix was still a Mariner. Seager was still a Mariner. Colt Emerson was 14. Crawford was a “glove first” shortstop in his first few seasons. That […]
