Tampa Bay Rays are riding high with the unexpected rise of Brody Hopkins, the 100+ mph pitcher they traded for Randy Arozarena in 2024 — and now he’s dominating as a reliever with a 2.25 ERA and .136 batting average against. While Hopkins thrived after being shifted to the bullpen, Arozarena continues his All-Star form for Seattle, but the Mariners’ overall season is falling short. It’s a textbook...

Eduard Bazardo’s rough patch just got worse—he blew a walk-off two-run homer in the 10th, failing to record an out, after already giving up multiple runs and homers in his last outing. With the Mariners clinging to a slim lead and playoff hopes fading, the decision to slot him into high-leverage situations—despite a cratering ERA (now 4.04) and a brutal stretch of run-heavy innings—is proving cost...

Julio Rodriguez broke his slump with a clutch, game-winning three-run homer against a division rival, sparking hope for the Mariners and proving his resilience under pressure.

The Mariners’ season ended in heartbreak as they lost 6-5 to the Athletics in a gut-wrenching walk-off, thanks to Eduard Bazardo’s disastrous outing — his fourth bad appearance in a row. With playoff hopes already dashed at 69-79, the team now faces a brutal offseason reckoning: their bullpen is crumbling, and with only one spot left between Bazardo and Rucker, it’s clear they need serious upgrade...

Cole Young’s defensive surge has Mariners fans buzzing—he might even snag a Gold Glove. Meanwhile, Byron Buxton’s season ends with knee surgery, but he’s expected back for 2027. The Blue Jays welcomed Rudy Martin Jr., a minor league grinder and international standout, for his debut as a pinch-runner. Peter Lambert’s breakout pitching has stunned Astros fans, leading the staff in fWAR. And as start...

The Athletics are on fire, tied for the AL’s best record after a gritty extra-inning win, and they’re eyeing a crucial Game Two showdown to shake up Seattle’s playoff hopes and build momentum. Pitching is pivotal—Gage Jump must outsmart Bryan Woo, who dominated him last time, by staying efficient and lasting into the sixth. With their bullpen already stretched thin from the previous game, they’ll...

The Mariners’ managerial future is in serious doubt as Dan Wilson faces mounting pressure to stay after another disappointing season. Despite a strong debut year that included a division title and ALCS run, the team’s current collapse — missing the playoffs and losing frustratingly against weaker opponents — has sparked widespread speculation about his job security. With Ken Rosenthal and other wr...

Seattle Mariners clawed back from a 6-5 deficit in extra innings thanks to Lazaro Montes’ mammoth 430-foot homer and Julio Rodríguez’s clutch single, only to see their comeback shattered by Eduard Bazardo’s disastrous third pitch—a walk-off two-run blast from Donovan Walton. With their closer unavailable, Bazardo’s shaky outing (three pitches, three runs) underscored his recent struggles, while La...

Josh Naylor leads the Mariners in hits but his power numbers fall short of expectations, leaving the team struggling offensively. Signed for a hefty five-year deal, he’s delivered speed and contact skills—but just 10 home runs this season, far below the promise shown earlier. A lingering wrist injury may have dulled his swing, and with four years left on his contract, Seattle can’t count on him to...

In 1998, Billy Collins pulled off a poetic prank—fabricating the “paradelle,” a rigid French form with impossible rules, to mock overly structured poetry. His intentionally absurd poem “A Paradelle for Susan” became a cult hit among poets who embraced its silliness. Fast forward to September 11, 2026, and someone reimagined the form as “A Paradelle for the 2026 Mariners,” using Collins’ fake rules...

Lazaro Montes, the 21-year-old Cuban phenom, just lit up the Mariners’ season with a game-tying, two-run homer — his third monster blast in 23 at-bats — sparking joy and hope in a franchise drowning in losses. Despite his electric power (including a park-record blast) and eight RBIs, the Mariners fell 6-5 in extra innings after George Kirby’s early struggles and an Athletics walk-off homer. With j...

Oakland pulls off a heart-pounding walk-off win over Seattle, thanks to Donovan Walton’s two-run homer in extra innings — a nail-biter that leaves the Mariners’ playoff hopes hanging by a thread. Veteran pitcher Jeffrey Springs held strong through five innings, limiting damage despite his uncertain future, while the bullpen faltered just enough to let the A’s claw back and seize victory. Lawrence...

Josh Naylor leads the Mariners in hits but delivers far less power than expected, with 112 of his 142 hits being singles and a dismal .359 slugging percentage. Signed for $92.5M to be a middle-of-the-order force, he’s fallen short — just 10 homers this season after hitting 9 in his first 54 games. While he’s still a solid contact hitter with 26 steals, his lack of power is hurting an offense alrea...

Cole Young just made history with a game-ending play that sealed the Mariners’ 4-3 win over the Rangers, fielding a ground ball, securing the out at second, and throwing to first for an unofficial fourth out — upheld after the challenge. This season, Young has been a rock in the lineup, playing nearly every game and now leading the American League in defensive WAR at second base while ranking seco...

George Kirby takes the mound in a high-stakes matchup against Jeffrey Springs, aiming to prove his consistency after recent struggles holding runners. JP leads off while Weston Wilson, celebrating his birthday, bats ninth — with Taylor Ward stepping in as DH against the lefty. Watch for Kirby’s clutch execution, especially in key moments like pickoffs and stolen base prevention — it could be the g...

Logan Gilbert’s turned his reputation as a runner-advancement liability into a pitching gem, leading the Mariners’ staff in preventing stolen bases despite his slow pace — and he’s not even pretending to be a pickoff wizard. Meanwhile, George Kirby’s quietly becoming the team’s biggest running-game problem, with the worst Net Bases Prevented in MLB, thanks to a drop in strikeouts and stubbornly hi...

Boston Smith, the Mariners’ 13th-ranked prospect acquired in a trade with Chicago, is headed to the Arizona Fall League this October — a move that’s puzzling given his solid Double-A performance and extensive playing time. Playing for the Peoria Javelinas, Smith could be getting extra at-bats ahead of the December 1st CBA deadline, potentially to secure a spot on the 40-man roster before minor lea...

The Texas Rangers’ dream of a road series win slipped away in heartbreaking fashion, collapsing in the seventh inning after a dominant start by ace Jacob deGrom. Up three runs with the game on the line, the bullpen unraveled—Jakob Junis surrendered a run, then Julio Rodriguez crushed a three-run homer to seal the 4-3 loss to the Mariners. This recurring pattern, especially after their World Series...

Julio Rodriguez delivered a game-winning three-run homer in the 7th inning, sparking a Mariners comeback victory over the Rangers and keeping playoff hopes alive. Despite a quieter second half statistically, Rodriguez is hitting more fly balls, reducing grounders, and working hard with Edgar Martinez and Franmy Pena to refine fundamentals — even if his barrel rate has dipped since his rookie year....

The Mariners get a second shot at Jeffrey Springs, the pitcher who stunned them last time with seven scoreless innings despite a rough season. George Kirby held his own but Seattle’s offense stalled, letting the Athletics pull ahead. This time, they’ve got intel on Springs’ game plan and need to shut down key hitters like Max Muncy and Henry Bolte. With the bullpen already taxed, Seattle must forc...

Rick Rizzs, the legendary voice of the Seattle Mariners for 41 seasons and over 50 years in pro baseball, is on his final road trip — a bittersweet farewell as he wraps up a career that began washing uniforms in Alexandria, Louisiana. At 72, he’s still calling games with passion, praising the team’s pitching, defense, and clutch offense led by stars like Gilbert, deGrom, and Julio Rodriguez. He’s...

Jacob deGrom dazzled with a no-hitter and 12 strikeouts, but the Rangers’ bullpen collapsed, costing them a 4-3 loss to Seattle that all but seals their AL West title hopes. Now trailing Houston by three games with just 15 left, Texas needs a near-perfect finish while Houston slips up — an uphill battle made tougher by their brutal road record since the All-Star break. A wild card spot remains mat...

Baseball’s new challenge system is throwing teams for a loop—and the Mariners are stuck in last place offensively, winning just 42% of their calls. But here’s the twist: being great at challenges doesn’t guarantee playoff success. Top offensive challengers like the Diamondbacks and Royals? Not even in the postseason. Meanwhile, playoff teams like the Astros and Brewers rank near the bottom in defe...

The Oakland A’s open a high-stakes three-game series against the playoff-chasing Seattle Mariners, with pressure on Seattle and relaxed vibes for the A’s. Lefty Jeffrey Springs faces righty George Kirby in a home struggle for Springs, while Saturday sees rookie Gage Jump battling Bryan Woo — both lefty-righty matchups with developmental stakes. Sunday’s finale features rising A’s arm Jacob Lopez s...

The Athletics’ final push against the Mariners is a high-stakes showdown where every pitch and at-bat could decide careers. Jeffrey Springs’ dominant start puts his rotation future on the line, Zack Gelof needs to reignite his bat to keep the offense alive, and Jonah Heim must bounce back from a brutal slump to secure his free agency value — all while the Mariners fight for playoff life. This seri...
