    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 >>

    So Far, So-So for French, and How 'Bout That Cat on the Field?

    With a fastball that tops out in the high 80s, French could use a little more mustard.​In the first installment of small sample size theater, Jarrod Washburn was disappointing for the Detroit Tigers. In the second installment, former Tiger Luke French was merely underwhelming. He went 5 inning ... More >>

    Now That's the Jarrod Washburn We Know

    ​In today's small sample size theater, Detroit got a little taste of buyer's remorse, as the Jarrod Washburn that Mariners' fans are accustomed to seeing--the one who gives up flyballs that go a long, long way--is the Jarrod Washburn who made his first appearance in a Tigers uniform. (In case ... More >>

    It's Trade Deadline Day: Do You Know Where Your Mariners Are?

    Could the Moose be on the block?​In Seattle, of course. And not making any big moves yet. The M's do pop up in a few rumors in the ESPN comprehensive rumor roundup. Get ready for some non-blockbusters: -The Dodgers and Rays are interested in M's reliever Mark "Remember when we had Derek but t ... More >>

    And We Didn't Even Have to Give Up the Moose: Jarrod Washburn Shipped to Detroit

    Robles​In what sounds like a pretty sweet deal, the Mariners sold high on Jarrod Washburn, who's pitching better this year than he ever has--or likely ever will again. (Derek Zumsteg at USS Mariner was so eager to unload Washburn he offered to throw in the Mariner Moose.) The M's shipped Washb ... More >>

    Mariners at the Trade Deadline: Looking to Keep Washburn (and Win Next Year?)

    If Washburn's surprising success continues, it may be on the strength of his new off-speed pitch, the Dolphin.​Just one more day to make blockbuster trades, so what does newly beloved M's GM J-Z have in store for us? Apparently, keeping Jarrod Washburn, the lefty starter who is pitching better ... More >>

    Jarrod Washburn Returns to the Trading Block, Erik Bedard Returns to the DL, a Bear Shits in the Woods

    ​As reliable as the sun or moon or tide, Mariners pitcher Erik Bedard has returned to his rightful place on the Disabled List, with--get this--left shoulder trouble. Of course, it was his left shoulder that troubled him last year, too. The injury will make it impossible to trade him before the ... More >>

    Ride The Dolphin, Jarrod!

    Traditionally quite hittable Mariners pitcher Jarrod Washburn was suddenly unhittable last night, pitching the 10th 1-hitter in Mariners history. As Dave Cameron at the USS Mariner notes, everything was in place for Washburn: "Ridiculously Good Command Flyball Lefty Safeco Field Terrific Outfi ... More >>

    Mariners Waving the White Flag on This Season

    So says the USS Mariner's Dave Cameron, in so many words. Management, he notes (citing this report from Geoff Baker) is telling the team's older players that the team is looking to go in a younger direction. So the older, established players ("established at what?", you might ask) are more likely to ... More >>

    Could These Mariners Actually Be Good?

    They can actually play defense now. Jose Vidro is no longer the designated hitter. Erik Bedard is healthy. Jarrod Washburn has an awesome new pitch that may actually warrant the obligatory "he's got an awesome new pitch" articles. And seven games into the season, they just tied their longest winni ...

    Japan Times Profiles Mariners' Ichiro, Kenji

    It seems that in their native Japan, the enigmatic Ichiro remains enigmatic, but the quiet Kenji Johjima--frequent target of talent-less clown Jarrod Washburn--doesn't take any shit. Today's Japan Times has articles on both Mariners, prompted by their participation in the World Baseball Classic. I ... More >>

    Ichiro Does What Ichiro Wants, Mr. Zduriencik

    We can't imagine new Mariners GM Jack Zduriencik is happy to hear that Ichiro is working out as a pitcher in preparation for the World Baseball Classic, especially after what a stint on the mound did to another outfielder. (Of course, that guy was more juiced than Hans and Franz.) Still, we can't ... More >>

    From the Bargain Dept: Mariners Sign Felix

    ESPN's Jayson Stark is reporting that the Mariners signed mega-talented pitcher Felix Hernandez to a one-year contract for $3.8 million today. Hernandez isn't eligible for free agency until after the 2011 season, so this contract was basically a means of avoiding arbitration and continuing to negoti ... More >>
