    9 National League Pitchers Who Out-Hit the 2011 Seattle Mariners

    Image source​The Mariners travel to San Diego tonight to take on their bitter interleague rivals the Padres, and they take with them one of the worst-hitting teams in baseball. Skipper Eric Wedge said it best earlier this week after his club tallied just two runs or fewer in seven of 14 games: ... More >>

    How to Heckle Horrible Mariners Without Getting Thrown Out of Safeco Field

    ​Safeco Field feels a lot like the Kingdome felt in the '80s, only less fun. Sure, the Safe is a modern marvel of (cookie-cutter) stadium design, the food and drink are swankier, and fans are afforded the benefit of taking in a game in the great outdoors--not that the outdoors are frequently a ...

    Trade Ichiro: Record-Low Crowds Remove the Only Reason to Keep Fan Favorite On the Mariners

    ​For last night's phenomenal comeback win, which catapulted the Mariners to a 3-7 record, 13,056 fans reportedly showed up, breaking the record low of 14,543 set a few days earlier against the Orioles. We were there--the crowd was actually about half that. The Mariners are open about the fact ... More >>

    Jose Lopez Is the Worst Hitter In Baseball

    ​The Mariners already have the worst starting pitcher in baseball. But throwing the baseball only accounts for, um...hold on a second...half! That's right! Pitching is only half of the game. There's also that hitting thing. Thank goodness then that we also have Jose Lopez, the worst hitter in ... More >>

    M's GM Jack Zduriencek Re-Signs Fellow Jack Wilson, Further Establishing Club's Love for the Name Jack

    "Maybe if this acting gig doesn't work out, I'll go play for the Mariners."​Before last season, the M's hired Jack Zduriencek as the club's new general manager. While the M's opening-day roster consisted of precisely zero Jacks, the Z-Man wasted no time in remedying that, trading for, in succe ... More >>

    M's Shouldn't Wait to Call Up Tui

    ​ While Trader Jack and Wak have indeed done a sensational job holding the M's roster together with Scotch tape and gum, we'd like to take this opportunity to debunk one notion that's gained some traction in the media: Namely, that players such as Jack Hanahan and Ryan Langerhans -- both of wh ...

    Are the M's Showcasing Johjima In Order to Move Him?

    ​ Two things happened yesterday that made me think the Mariners might be able to shed Kenji Johjima and his ridiculous contract before the season's out. One, the White Sox claimed Blue Jay outfielder Alex Rios off waivers. Rios, who's underperformed this year after signing a 7-year, $69 millio ... More >>

    Once Again, and This Time With Feeling: Russell Branyan Should Not Bat Second

    When we argued that the so-called experiment of strikeout-prone slugger Russell Branyan batting second should come to an end, we'll admit we didn't have a great solution for who should hit there instead. But with the acquisition of contact-hitting shortstop Jack Wilson, we do now. And yet, Wilson re ... More >>

    Mariners Get Jack at Shortstop, Which Is More Than They Had Before

    It's Jack!While this year's Mariners team has been a pleasant surprise, competing better than many expected, their shortstops have been a disaster. Yuniesky Betancourt got shipped out for swinging as indiscriminately as a drunk at a pinata bash. And while Ronny Cedeno is an okay defensive SS, he's t ... More >>
