#Matt Brash

There is no precedent for what we could see in less than 36 hours. Juan Soto of the Nationals is the rarest of players on the trading block because of his youth (age 23), controllable years (two after this one) and historic talent. Naturally, there are many contending teams that would love to add Soto to boost their chances of making the playoffs…

We've got two rounds of mailbags coming your way this week. Consider these to be early holiday gifts. Sorry. No refunds, though. Much like that box of Almond Roca you're bound to get, you're stuck with me. A lot to tackle this week in terms of your questions, including everyone's favorite topic: The Mariners and the free-agent market. We talk about…

If the Seattle Mariners make a move at the MLB trade deadline, could Matt Brash be one of the assets needed in order to make the deal happen? One writer covering the Mariners says it's a possibility … and maybe a bigger one than you might think. In an article for The Athletic (subscription required) focusing on predictions for the upcoming MLB…

It's that time of year where many people start creating wish lists and hoping a jolly person in a suit will bring them the gift they want most. I'm not talking about the holidays, I'm talking about the baseball off-season, where that jolly person is a baseball executive and the gift is a free agent signing or trade for a player that makes next…

It's amazing how quickly vibes can change during a baseball season, both for the better and worse. Last Saturday felt like the bottom was about to fall out of the Mariners season. Julio Rodríguez got hit on the wrist, and the immediate fear was a broken bone that would keep the rookie phenom out for months. On top of that, Seattle appeared poised…

After wrapping things up in Minnesota, albeit in a disappointing fashion, the Mariners will head southeast to Chicago for a three-game set to wrap up their road trip. The pitching has been pretty good, but the offense will need to find itself if they are going to have any chance against the team that a lot of people are picking to win not just the…

Happy Tuesday everyone! In the first game of a new series, the Seattle Mariners travel to Guaranteed Rate Field to square off with the Chicago White Sox. It is time to take a look at our MLB odds series, where our Mariners-White Sox prediction and pick will be made. In their first series of the newly acquainted 2022 season, the Seattle Mariners…

We were hit with a 1-1 day yesterday after an incredible comeback by the Dodgers. Rockies vs. Tigers was postponed, so we made out exactly even. Today we have three picks in three different games. Cal Quantrill (RHP, Guardians): [1-0, 3.72 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, 9.2 IP, 4 K, 4 BB] Nestor Cortes Jr (LHP, Yankees): [0-0, 0.00 ERA, 0.75 WHIP, 9.1 IP, 17 K, 1…

Fresh off a season that exceeded pre-season expectations, Seattle has one of the worst records in Major League Baseball. SEATTLE - The Seattle Mariners have reached what fans hope is a nadir this season, a stunning reversal from last season's team that galvanized the fan base and was within one game of breaking a two decades-long playoff…

The annual MLB general manager meetings were held last week in Las Vegas, and the event is traditionally the rumor-filled calm before the storm. (It's also not to be confused with the winter meetings, which will take place in San Diego from Dec. 4-7 and is when a ton of wheeling and dealing goes down.) Free agents couldn't sign with new teams until…

The Seattle Mariners and Oakland Athletics will finish their AL West series on Sunday afternoon in Oakland. With that said, it's a good time to check out our MLB odds series, which includes a Mariners-Athletics prediction and pick we have laid out below. Seattle made some impressive maneuvers at the trade deadline, adding to an already playoff…

Is there such a thing as too much baseball? Absolutely not. In an American League contest between two teams with an incredible amount of intriguing rising baseball stars, the Kansas City Royals and the Seattle Mariners will go to war on a Saturday night in the Pacific Northwest. It is time to take a sneak peek at our MLB odds series, which will…

In order to separate the AL and NL so that there weren't any nights without playoff baseball, MLB did an odd thing and gave the four teams in the Junior Circuit a night off between Game 1 and Game 2. That means that the Mariners have had a long time to think about their devastating loss to the Astros and that the Guardians have had a lot of time to…

Imagine a starting rotation of Luis Castillo, Alek Manoah and Kevin Gausman. And then add in a little hope for the future with Jose Berrios and Hyun-jin Ryu, and the dependability of Ross Stripling. It could have happened had Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins beat the Seattle Mariners to the punch at baseball's trade deadline this summer. It…

Just one season ago, the Atlanta Braves proved how important a team's bullpen can be in today's MLB during their World Series run. Postseason games can be won or lost by arms coming out of the back-end of the'pen and this year 11 of the 12 teams playing for the title finished the regular season with the top-14 bullpens by ERA. While some starters…

After a 21-year postseason drought and some heartbreakingly close misses in recent seasons, the Seattle Mariners can finally say that they're a playoff team again. As the second Wild Card club and No. 5 seed, the Mariners were driven by their pitching, while finally providing just enough on offense - especially thanks to likely Rookie of the Year…

A few teams enjoyed a planned off day and two others got an impromptu break on Monday, but we're back to the full 15-game card on Tuesday. Not only that, but we have seven interleague games to add a little bit of spice to the April 12 menu. This is a really interesting day in baseball because we have some pitchers making their second starts against…

On Tuesday, a clash of AL West rivals is on the docket, with the Texas Rangers (65-87) visiting the Seattle Mariners (83-69) at 9:40 PM ET. The Mariners are favored at home (-201) against the Rangers (+169). The starting pitchers are Robbie Ray (12-10) for the Seattle Mariners, and Jesus Tinoco for the Texas Rangers. The Mariners lost their most…

The Mariners' current AL West road trip got off to an inauspicious start over the weekend. Seattle dropped back-to-back games to the Rangers on Saturday and Sunday after taking the series opener on Friday. The team enters Monday at 62-54 on the season with 84.9% odds to make the playoffs, according to FanGraphs. Seattle is currently sitting in the…

SEATTLE - Ford Pintos run better than the Yankees did Tuesday night. They were thrown out on the bases five times, and had automatic runners thrown out in three straight innings, in a goof-filled 1-0 loss in 13-innings to the Mariners at T-Mobile Park. "Mistakes," manager Aaron Boone told reporters. A lot of them. Most in crunch time. BUY YANKEES…
