SEATTLE -- Logan Gilbert rarely sports a wide smile on the mound, but Sunday certainly called for it. The Mariners’ Opening Day starter let down his uber-competitive alter ego for a brief blip during the first inning of a 6-1 win over the Astros, when nabbing Jose Altuve for one

SEATTLE -- Julio Rodríguez joked that he wanted the ball back to commemorate the moment. But more so, to bring levity to it. The Mariners’ star center fielder had just yanked a double down the left-field line in the first inning of Saturday night's 8-7 win over the Astros, ending

SEATTLE -- Brendan Donovan was out of the Mariners’ lineup for the second straight game on Saturday against the Astros, but he did return as a pinch-hitter in the ninth inning of their 8-7 walk-off win later that night. Still slogging through an illness that first surfaced during Seattle’s most

SEATTLE -- There was no one else the Mariners wanted at the plate on Saturday night. Bottom of the ninth, tie game and against a division rival. But the most telling criteria for this specific hitter was that the bases were loaded. And absolutely nobody in this lineup thrives more

SEATTLE -- The entire Randy Arozarena experience could be boiled down to one big at-bat on Friday night. A high-and-in heater he wasn’t thrilled about. Taking first base when ball four wasn’t actually called that the home-plate umpire wasn’t thrilled about. The punctuating part, however, was something the ticketed 44,468

SEATTLE -- Looking for a jolt to their offense after a 1-5 road trip, the Mariners were without their most consistent hitter when they returned to T-Mobile Park on Friday night. Third baseman Brendan Donovan was out of Seattle’s starting lineup to begin a four-game series vs. the Astros, recovering

SEATTLE -- The unveiling of Ichiro Suzuki’s statue outside T-Mobile Park featured a slight malfunction on Friday afternoon, but the Mariners’ franchise icon couldn’t help but laugh it off. The bronze bat attached to the sweet-swinging lefty outfielder was snapped at the handle upon the big reveal, tilting back and

Who are the best players born on each day of the year? We have a list for every day on the calendar. Here’s a subjective ranking of the top five for April 6:

ANAHEIM -- The whiteboard logic that went viral was sound, and technically, it played out as the Mariners intended. Because the only ball hit in Jo Adell’s direction on Sunday was a sky-high blast that sailed way over his head -- a three-run homer from Cole Young that was way

ANAHEIM -- The Mariners were trying to keep things light the morning after being victims of one of the greatest defensive performances this game has ever seen. After all, they stung three balls that -- independent of Jo Adell’s amazing athleticism -- would’ve cleared the fence. But instead, Seattle was

ANAHEIM -- The first had a sense of “oof.” The second had a dose of diabolical. And the third might go down as the catch of the year. The Mariners were on the wrong side of a game that virtually everyone at Angel Stadium and across the sport on Saturday

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The Mariners and their fans were collectively holding their breath on Saturday night as Colt Emerson exited the first game of a doubleheader at Triple-A Tacoma after fouling a ball off his right foot. However, Mariners general manager Justin Hollander shared via text message a few hours

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Brendan Donovan was out of the Mariners’ lineup on Saturday night at Angel Stadium while recovering from a minor right groin issue. But Seattle’s new third baseman reported all positives when coming off the field after doing a pregame workout that primarily consisted of agility work.

ANAHEIM -- It took nearly three hours for the Mariners to come to life on Friday night at Angel Stadium. But when they did, they completed a 3-1 win with two of their wildest highlights of this young season. Andrés Muñoz won a tense showdown with Mike Trout for a

ANAHEIM -- J.P. Crawford knows how the business side of baseball works, maybe more than anyone in the Mariners’ clubhouse. After all, he’s Seattle’s longest-tenured player and has seen some of his closest friends leave the organization based on the club’s competitive direction in those moments.

SEATTLE -- Suboptimal as the Mariners’ finish to their Opening Week homestand was, a few trends emerged that will be worth watching as the club heads into its first off-day, then its first road trip. The good: Promising players that shined in Spring Training continued with tangible results in games

SEATTLE -- Colt Emerson has long been viewed by the Mariners as a massive piece to their long-term plans, and the club is making an unprecedented commitment to the 20-year-old infielder before he’s even reached the Majors. Emerson, a shortstop who is MLB Pipeline's No. 7 overall prospect, and the

SEATTLE -- Colt Emerson's path to the Majors in 2026 was already a matter of sooner than later. And now that MLB Pipeline’s No. 7 overall prospect has locked up a $95 million contract extension with the Mariners through at least 2033 -- and been added to the 40-man roster

SEATTLE -- It was never going to be a full off-day for Cal Raleigh. Mired in a mini-slump to begin the regular season, the Mariners’ all-world catcher was out of Seattle’s starting lineup on Monday night against the Yankees -- but wound up being the hero in a 2-1 walk-off

SEATTLE -- The showdown between the two stars who were in a dead heat for last year’s AL MVP was put on hold for one day, or at least it was by first pitch between the Mariners and Yankees on Monday night. Cal Raleigh, who’s in a notable -- albeit

SEATTLE -- Turns out Kade Anderson and Ryan Sloan won’t have to turn their fast friendship into a pen-pal situation. The Mariners’ top two pitching prospects will begin their regular season together at Double-A Arkansas, the organization announced on Monday. That itself wasn’t a major surprise, given what was hinted

SEATTLE -- The Mariners announced another significant development to their television broadcast plans for 2026 on Monday, and that local affiliate KING 5 will air 10 regular-season home games for free.

SEATTLE -- Brendan Donovan, meet the marine layer. The Mariners’ new third baseman said Sunday’s 8-0 win over the Guardians was among the coldest games he’d ever played in, and those 43-degree temperatures at first pitch -- compounded by gusting winds and rain on the exterior of T-Mobile Park --
