The American League West will play zero games in October, deservedly so.

The 2026 Mariners were supposed to be good, they were bad, and Dan Wilson was their feckless manager. But the roster he was saddled with proved disturbingly thin. My season obit, for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social

My first Hydro Challenge win of the year comes on the day the Mariners get mathematically eliminated. Go figure.

MLB probably needs to trash appeals altogether if they aren't going to allow challenges when the umpires get them wrong. What are we even doing here?

I attempted to steer away from the doom and gloom for a bit bc Mariners baseball is done and dusted at the end of this week, so I dunno, get what you can out of these last 6 games? www.lookoutlanding.com/mlb-playbook... @lookoutlanding.bsky.social #Mariners #TridentsUp

What were the best moments of the 2026 Seattle Mariners season?

It wasn’t all bad. Wasn’t all good, either.

Following their weekend in Colorado, the 2026 Seattle Mariners officially are the worst defensive team in Statcast era history (2016->) by Outs Above Average. They sit at -56, outpacing the ghastly 2025 Angels. Fielding Run Value has them 6th-worst, likely to overtake 5th in the final week.

Ah, you may be right. It's a bit unclear. Either way though, I think this is the first reporting I've seen that suggests Dipoto's job may be in danger?

Buster Olney of ESPN: "...there are a lot of industry tremors that suggest major change is possible at the top of the [Mariners] front office." "If ownership decides to fire Dipoto, his job will immediately become one of the most coveted in the industry -- and largely because of Dipoto's work."

I think I knew they were flawed, though the bar was so low I thought they might clear it anyway. It’s crazy to think how little more it would’ve taken! They haven’t looked particularly good at any point; even their eight-game win streak seemed lucky at the time, and does even more so now.

James Johnston @rollingroofrundown.com · 15/09/2026

I guess I’ve just been conditioned to think this team figures it out late in the season. And didn’t expect their pitching would bottom out quite like this. Boy, was I wrong.

James Johnston @rollingroofrundown.com · 15/09/2026

Win two of the three you coughed up against the A’s and Angels this week, and you’d be three back. With the Rockies this weekend, and still two against the Astros. This effort down the stretch against this schedule might be this team’s biggest failure yet. How can rock bottom keep getting lower?

The 2026 Mariners never had to be good, they just needed to not be bad. Unfortunately, they are bad.

Kade Anderson's day seems likely done after an MLB-high 6 IP. 6 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 5 K 81 pitches, 55 strikes, 10 whiffs What stands out to me: He was throwing with more conviction in the back half. This Savant graph shows his velo by inning (fastball, slider, changeup, curveball).

From the day he signed with the Mariners, Michael Arroyo wanted to represent Colombia as a big-leaguer. Today, thanks to his talent and hard work, he becomes just the 35th-ever Colombian-born MLB player. www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

It's so crazy that Raleigh has been so terrible this year and still gonna end the year with 25-plus homers and likely would be challenging for 35 if not for missing a fifth of a year.

A couple grim moves today for the Mariners depth - OF Victor Robles is on the family medical emergency list, w/OF Stuart Fairchild in his place. Additionally, Seattle placed OF Brennen Davis on the 60-day IL, ending the minor leaguer's season. www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

Hard to believe, but... If the Astros lose tonight, the Mariners would begin the day on Sept. 3 four games back of first place in the AL West with 22 games to go — same as they did in 2025.

Arte Moreno bought the Angels in 2003 (the year after they won the Series) for $184 million. He then spent 23 years running them into the ground, let the stadium decay, wasted Trout and Ohtani, and sold for $4 billion. And the owners are crying poverty and threatening to kill baseball next year.
