A good week on the farm as some promotions start to emerge
The MLB draft is just a few short weeks away, and in preparation for that, promotions are starting to trickle through the system: OF Cade Marlowe was promoted from Modesto to Everett, LHP Ian McKinney was promoted to Tacoma from Arkansas, LHP Brandon Williamson was promoted from Everett to Arkansas, and RHP Taylor Dollard was promoted from Modesto to Everett. We’ll cover all of...
The 2021 MLB Draft is a mere 2 weeks away. Time to start focusing in on specific players.
It’s a big draft for the Seattle Mariners as they look to turn the corner from a rebuild into a competitive window. They’ve assembled a deep farm, rich in pitching and outfield talent. There’s still work to do on the dirt, but by and large the team is in a position to take a little more risks in the draft.
Selecting no. 12 overall affords Jerry Dipoto and Scott Hunter the ability to...

Some links on a Mariners-free Monday.
Good morning everybody and happy Monday! I know the first work day after a holiday can be a tough one, so let’s help you get through it with some links.

This game had it all
Yeah, I’ll say it. Best series of the season, and maybe one of the best games of the year. It had everything: High-stakes pitching match-ups, glorious defensive plays, adventurous baserunning and a walk-off grand slam. What a gift.
And hey, speaking of gifts, Happy Father’s Day! Despite spending many, many afternoons and evenings scarfing Dodger Dogs at Dodger Stadium, my dad is not what anyone would...

Two new hires, a whole new vibe
Hello Lookout Landing!
My name is Evan James and I have taken over podcast duties for our dearly departed (to bigger and better things) Matthew Roberson. While I know I can never match his energy and I certainly can’t imitate his accents or impressions (RIP “New York Guy”) I hope to bring a unique perspective of my very own.
This episode we introduce myself and Addie,...
We salute you, Shed. | Joe Nicholson-USA TODAY Sports
“I just wanted to find a hole. But I found a big hole.”

Oops. Game starts soon. Sorry for late thread, too busy celebrating Raffi.
Final game of the series, M’s already have notched the series win but we’re greedy now. Sweepsmas calls. Give me your dusty, your disheveled, your huddled bristles yearning to wave free.

Goooooood morning! Did you enjoy the game last night? I sure did! It’s my sainted mother’s birthday today, so I’m hoping the Mariners have one more thrilling win in them, or hey, even a low-stress win. Any old win will do. It’s one sweep, Michael, what can it cost?

the boys have BEEN back in town
Remember a month ago when we were all collectively in the Pit of Despair? On the wrong end of two no-hitters in the span of two weeks, a team batting average dipping below .200, and injuries left and right? Around this time in May, the Mariners were mired in a six-game losing streak, swept by the hands of the Tigers and Padres. At 21-26 with seemingly no help on the way, it was easy to take a glance and see a team that was dead in...

it’s steelhead season!
Against all odds, the Mariners have secured at least a series split with the best team in the American League. Tonight they have a shot at clinching the win, and they’ll be doing so in these truly gorgeous Seattle Steelheads uniforms, in homage to the Negro Leagues.

This Saturday, a mixed bag of links for your perusal.
In Mariners news... The Seattle Mariners agreed to a minor league deal with INF Alen Hanson, who previously was with the organization in 2019. Promotion season continues in the minors, as LHP Brandon Williamson’s utter dominance of High-A Everett rightfully earned him a bump up to Double-A Arkansas. Less excitingly, the AquaSox appear set to be without another promising righty...Joe Nicholson-USA TODAY Sports
Sorry for getting that song stuck in your head.
I think a lot about challenging jobs.
When not moonlighting as a Mariners blogger/community hanger-on, I spend my day job working as a recruiter, working to fill various executive-level roles in the tech world. That means I’m always considering jobs that might be harder than meets the eye, or where there’s a high barrier to entry.

There’s been some shuffling down on the farm. Who will be on the move next?
Hello and welcome back to FanPost Friday! My apologies for the lack of FPF last week. My family had to deal with a COVID-19 exposure involving our unvaccinated kids and I’ll be honest, it’s been a rough stretch! Thankfully, my direct family and children have continued to test negative. Of the seven people who were infected through this line of contact tracing, six were vaccinated adults...

If anyone gets all of this, I’ll be impressed, and it’s only been 2.5 months.
Hello everyone. After a brief hiatus mourning the departure of Matthew Roberson, who worked very hard, Sporcle Friday is BACK, baby. I can’t promise it will be as good as some of Matthew’s classics, but I can promise that I will do my level best to irritate the hell out of you with some of these. Let’s jump right into it, though. Did you know the 2021 Mariners have...
The move, which will require a corresponding 40-man transaction, marks the culmination of an eight-year journey to the big leagues for Nittoli — a 25th-round pick back in 2014 who turned 30 over the winter.
