Mariners Forever

The Mariners just wrapped up the kind of homestand that can change the energy around a season: the bats started rolling, the pitching stayed elite, and Seattle’s staff finished the Toronto series with back-to-back shutouts and 24 straight scoreless innings. Emerson Hancock followed Logan Gilbert’s near-perfect outing with seven shutout innings of his own in Sunday’s 4-0 win. Today on Mariners Fore...

The Mariners limp home from a brutal 10-game East Coast road trip battered, bruised, and still somehow sitting in first place in the AL West. After going 4-6 and losing several key players along the way, Seattle gets a much-needed day off to reset before a massive opportunity at T-Mobile Park. The timing could not be better. The M’s are expected to get important pieces back, including Cal Raleigh...

The Mariners are one-third of the way through the season, and it still feels like we’re trying to figure out exactly who this team is. Casey McLain from the Poor Sports podcast joins Mariners Forever to break down the state of the M’s after a dramatic stretch that included frustration from Luis Castillo and Bryce Miller over Seattle’s piggyback starting pitching plan, continued questions about the...

The Mariners just wrapped up their series with the White Sox, and now the schedule is giving Seattle a real opportunity to turn the tide in the AL West race. In this episode, I look back at who stood out in the series, what still needs to change, and why this next stretch against a run of losing teams could be the moment the Mariners finally make their move in the division. But there is one glarin...

Brady Farkas of the Refuse To Lose Podcast joins Mariners Forever for a huge conversation about where the Seattle Mariners stand at the one-third mark of the season. Colt Emerson has arrived, the injuries are piling up, Dan Wilson’s performance as manager is under the microscope, and the AL West still feels very much within reach. So what are the Mariners right now — a flawed team just trying to s...

The Mariners’ start has been frustrating, uneven, and at times hard to watch — but it has not buried them. Today we’re going through 5 reasons to keep believing in Seattle, from where they still sit in the standings, to Julio Rodríguez showing signs earlier than usual, to Randy Arozarena stabilizing the lineup, Luke Raley becoming a real offensive weapon, and the pitching/run prevention foundation...

Andrés Muñoz had a brutal night in a blown save that instantly got Mariners fans talking. But was it just one bad outing, or is there a bigger-picture concern starting to form? In this episode I break down the outing, the recent context, and where the real panic level should be right now.

Casey McLain of Poor Sports Seattle joins me to break down the Mariners’ all-too-familiar slow offensive start, how concerned fans should really be, and whether the answers are already inside the organization. We also dig into the pressure points that still exist on a pitching staff that has otherwise been excellent, plus the timeline for Seattle’s superstar top prospect and what his arrival could...

Bryce Miller’s oblique injury has created an early question for the Seattle Mariners: who should step into the starting rotation to open the season? In this episode of Mariners Forever, I compare the profiles of the three leading candidates — the former high draft pick, the unknown soft-tossing veteran, and the rookie phenom — and weigh the pros, cons, upside, risk, and overall fit for the job. Th...

The Seattle Mariners just made one of the biggest offseason moves in franchise history — re-signing Josh Naylor to a 5-year deal and securing the heart-and-soul slugger who helped power last season’s playoff run. This is massive for Seattle on multiple levels: • They finally locked up an impact bat long-term • This breaks the trend of letting core hitters walk • The move signals that ownership may...

Check out Casey's channel! https://www.youtube.com/@UCWu6XfTCvC0...  We start with the headline topic — should the Mariners bring back free agent Jorge Polanco, and at what cost? Is his bat still worth the investment when this team needs more serious offensive upgrades else...

Don't worry guys, I got this!  Using free agency, trades, and the foundation and resources at hand, I've gone about building what I believe to be a somewhat fantastical, and yet surprisingly realistic, Mariners offseason plan. And I was able to do it all within the budgetary guidelines ownership has hinted at for 2026.  How did I do?!   Let me know! And please be sure to subscribe to Mariners Fore...
