I'm not convinced the #Mariners need to transform their starting lineup this offseason. I'd start with the bench and depth. So far in 2026, they have given 924 PAs to players who posted a negative fWAR. 924 PAs to players who collectively posted a 53 wRC+ and offered negative value on defense.

Early #Mariners offseason musings: Of the free agents, I wonder if the Ms try another Mitch- Garver-type deal with C Ryan Jeffers. He's a RH power bat, who does not strike out much. You could get him 400 PAs pretty easily as a DH/backup C. Maybe he could even add some flexibility and learn 1B?

The Supreme Court blocked the student loan forgiveness despite there being explicit statutory authority for Biden to do it and allowed the Iran War despite an explicit Constitutional prohibition on anyone besides Congress declaring a war.

What Pablo Torre did was ridiculously impressive. Uncovered a conspiracy between rich guys, withstood a propaganda campaign by one of the richest guys in the world with a pretty good reputation, didn't buckle or panic, and just kept reporting. That's some Pulitzerin' right there.

Listen, if you’re not happy single, you won’t be happy in a relationship either, happiness comes from picking a new hobby and then buying all the things to start that hobby then finding the perfect little storage container for those things and then putting that storage container in the spare room

Number of times Castillo went 7 scoreless with 10 SOs as a Mariner: ZERO. This was his best start - or maybe top 2 if you prefer to 4/16/24 vs COL - since leaving Cincinnati.

Cole Young fixed his fastball problem to kind of a wild extent. In 2025, no one in MLB had a higher late swing% against fastballs. (Context: 23% is the average late swing%.) On a related note, his wOBA against fastballs has gone from .250 to .341. baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-playe...

Kind of funny how Ty France is thoroughly outperforming Josh Naylor this year. France also leads 1B in Defensive Runs Saved (11), while Naylor is dead last (-8). Not a critique of the Mariners' process; this is 20/20 hindsight only. Still, the baseball gods can be cruel.

Since June 1: Taylor Ward 236 PAs; .245/.369/.347; 111 wRC+; 0.7 fWAR Refsnyder/Robles/Raley 265 PAs; .182/.237/.244; 40 wRC+; -1.3fWAR Ward is fine and all, but this is primarily addition by subtraction.

Seattle Aaron @aaronpo.bsky.social · 31/07/2026

The #Mariners are bad because the veterans they've paid are not performing. Period. Julio, Cal, Naylor, JP, Robles, Garver, Refsnyder (every vet on a FA contract or extension) are combined: .220/.301/.344; 90 wRC+; 3.4 fWAR. It's not Dan Wilson. The core is not playing well enough.

I know it's largely due to the Donovan injury (and to a lesser extent Mastrobuoni and I guess Wisdom), but Leo Rivas is so overexposed for the #Mariners right now. Among MLB players with at least 100 PAs this season, he ranks 210 out of 214 with a wRC+ of 40.
