In one of the deepest races for the AL Wild Card that we have seen in the last two decades, will the Mariner's be buyers or sellers? The 2023 roster isn't doing it offensively, and 2024 looks to be even worse with no reinforcements coming up from the Minors. The time to strike for hitting is now, and I go over three general predictions/hopes for the M's this weekend.

For the first time in many years the Astros look vulnerable. With the Mariners absolutely dominant rotation do they have a shot at taking the division? I missed a few weeks, there is a lot to talk about from the debut of the next Mariner Cy Young candidate to Julio moving in the lineup, let's get into it!

Overall it was a winning homestand for the M's, so the Brewer sweep isn't that painful right? Right? Lots of ups and downs this week, some good baseball, some bad baseball, lets get into it.

So many storylines from the Chicago and Colorado games. Jarred Kelenic is the most talked about thing on Mariner Twitter, Castillo is absolutely dominant and is having a historic start to 2023, Jerry's argument for his DH strategy took a serious hit, and Julio is slumping. There is a lot to discuss from this week. Come for the Kelenic adoration, stay for the sincere DH rant (1/21 isn't going to get it done at the major league level). It was a packed week!

The first homestand of the year ended in disappointment with the Mariners dropping 2 of 3 to the Angels (are we over platooning?). Then the M's went on to show their 2022 ways in Cleveland looking like a completely different team defensively (for the first two games). Full recap and notes in this one with a little, "Are We Worried?" at the end with certain players.

There are 162 games in a baseball season, deep breathes Mariner fans! The opener wasn't the way the Ms wanted to start the season, but it was a great test for where they are at going into the season. Cleveland is a great team and the defense did themselves no favors. All of it is recapped plus a look at the pitching matchups this week against LAA.

Opening day is finally here! The season starts fresh with sky high expectations heading into a tough opening series at home. The Guardians were a great matchup in 2022 and will be no different in 2023. Also some final thoughts on the MLB roster leaving Peoria. Baseball is back!

Coming in as the premiere free agent acquisition of the offseason for the Mariners, AJ Pollock is here to mash lefties! This was an underrated signing by the front office and Pollock's veteran leadership and ability to crush left handed pitching is going to be vital to this young team.
