I have been holding onto this article for a minute.. And been a defender of Dipoto for his org build out and prospect revamp, but enough is enough.

I had to get this off my chest, Mariners get swept and its finally time to clean it all up, all of it. tridenttrue.substack.com/p/burn-it-al...

Burn It All Down

Let’s start with the record, because the record is the whole argument.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

It seems crazy to believe that any of the MLB guys will find any motivation from an assistant hitting coach being fired. Nothing burger imo

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Lots of conversations that obviously make a ton of sense 100+ games in regarding this Mariners team just not being very good… I simply choose to not believe an MVP runner up doesn’t find some sort of balance, while an elite pitching staff carries them through.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

There’s a pretty good chance the M’s trade away a prospect in the next six months that is on everyone’s “untouchable” list. The backlog of arms + infielders feels like you have to reconstruct the roster sooner or later.

How Will The Mariners Manage The Deadline?

Cal Raleigh hit a grand slam on Monday night.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

Kirby has been REALLY good for the last few starts, and the M’s are now 3-1 out of the gate in the second half. Let’s pretend we didn’t watch the first 15 innings of this run.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Cole Young has been so good, he'll need to stay hot if the M's have a shot at the division. open.substack.com/pub/tridentt...

Cole Young Is Rising. Where is Cal?

Friday night was ugly.

050

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

The M’s have a really nice chance to start the second have with two series wins. It’s be real nice if they could go beyond that and start boat racing for the AL West.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

I still can't believe that lineup yesterday, and then it paying off is so funny. Cole Young bomb in the three hole, Luke Raley pinch hit HR. I'd imagine this is what Dipoto and Dan talk about pretty much every morning.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

It’s crazy that the MLB had one of the best formulas for the derby with the 10 outs system and decided they needed to change. Those derby’s ended up great, I’d like to see them just go back. Also, great derby upended by Netflix doing way too much.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

Michael Arroyo is RAKING in AAA already. He might force some fun decisions in the coming months. Spring 2027 is shaping up to also be a blast with Sloan, Anderson, Montes, and Arroyo all banging at the door.

We've hit the break, now what? - What are the chances Castillo does get moved? - Wellfair check on Donovan - Randy getting the nod tridenttrue.substack.com/p/all-star-b...

The Miami series was a mess, but the sky is certainly not falling. Had some thoughts afterwards and gave some deadline names to watch. open.substack.com/pub/tridentt...

Notes After Getting Swept in Miami

The vibes were bad as the M's left Miami, one more series to go before the break to turn that around.

If you feel like you're missing out on how the young guys are doing, including a few 2025 draft picks, this covers it all!

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

I don't know if I ever expected to see multiple Randy, Robles, Raley, Canzone lineups but here we are.

It seems more clear than ever that Dan is just trying to execute a pregame plan that has already been made. That doesn't absolve him of blame but it does make some of the moves make more sense. open.substack.com/pub/tridentt...

Dan Wilson and the Mariners: The Gap Between Planning and Execution

The Seattle Mariners beat the Los Angeles Angels 6-2 on Monday night, and for a moment, it felt like the exhale everyone’s been waiting for.

Don't let Cole Young's hero performance last night distract you from Celesten entering top 100 lists again 🫡

050

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

The Mariners took care of business on a day they had to. Now they get the Angels 1-2 starters the rest of the way.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

Cole Young is becoming exactly what we need at 2B and it only took him less than a full season of games.

040

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

The Dan Wilson defenders are going to have a tough time defending whatever that was yesterday. Probably the worst bullpen management I’ve seen in some time. Bazardo for one out? Rucker for five batters?

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Tabbing today’s game a must win. After what’s transpired really all year but really in the next two weeks, we need a hearty win for the vibes. Angels are starting a right hander that has an ERA that begins with 8.

Do Mariners fans rock with Bluesky?

The Mariners are perfectly sitting at .500, 41-41 to start the season. Our thoughts on the first 82 games: tridenttrue.substack.com/p/mariners-a...

Mariners are Halfway Home

82 games in as of today, and we have seen a lot of good baseball, and a whole lot of bad baseball as well.

Very excited for the WBC but the lineups that the Mariners are about to put out in the meantime will be super fun as well. Excited for these young dudes to have a shot, perks of having the most top 100 prospects in the league.

040

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

Brendan Donovan only had 3 stolen bases in 2025... He swiped a bag yesterdday, hoping that stat increases in his role in Seattle.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

Is everyone watching the WBC or is it something that has a niche baseball audience?

240

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

Imagine having Woo, Castillo, Gilbert, Kirby, and Miller and then these two just banging on the door of the MLB wanting to break in. If it works out quicker than expected, barring any injuries to these seven, the deadline may get really interesting this year.

The MLB should be taking notes from the Four Nations NHL tourney that’s taking place in lieu of their All Star Game. Electric atmospheres with some great games happening.

Trident True @tridenttrue.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

Really hoping Julio gets a bunch of ABs this spring and looks great. His early season woes could be a coincidence but seeing him have success early in the Spring would be nice.
