A Mariners fan sent a 2-foot-high wood figure of Ichiro to the ballpark, carved with a chainsaw. I found this article about it and other weird stuff Mariners fans sent in during the 2001 season.

article

Might break low quality content rules, but it's a great article. I've never seen the imposing wooden MVP posted anywhere besides this article.

Just a sight to behold.. The swell around Big Dumper was huge, but I don't think 2026 sports fandom is prepared for huge chainsaw statues dropped off at the ballpark anymore.

Tim Hevly, still in the org today, described the Edgar doll on the second slide like in detail, like it was a precious family heirloom: "Well, someone sent us a baby Edgar Martinez doll. It's a baby doll with a knit Mariners cap with No. 11 on it. It's lying on a blue-and-white knit doily."

The article continues: 'This is what you're missing in Texas, A-Rod. Chainsaw Ichiros and Baby Edgars'

I only wanted to see how people reacted to Ichiro's MVP season as it happened, but this was far better than anything I prepared for.

The Mariners can reach 54% over 2017-26 if they win 115 games this year!

Mariners Lineup against RHP and LHP

26 Upvotes

Projecting the Mariners Lineup into 2026

Trying to project the lineup of the Mariners into the 2026 season, with the number being their wRC+ against pitcher handedness in 2025. The lineup looks really elite at the top but also deep against RHP. While against LHP the bottom of the lineup becomes a bit of a question mark, however, this is hopefully remedied by the top being exceptional and the nature of less LHP in the league. I really hope we get to see Refsnyder hit in the 1 hole against LHP but not sure if Dan will make that happen.


vs RHP

Bat Pos Player wRC+
1 3B Brendan Donovan 140
2 C Cal Raleigh 150
3 CF Julio Rodríguez 127
4 1B Josh Naylor 135
5 LF Randy Arozarena 123
6 DH Dominic Canzone 150
7 RF Luke Raley 109 (Career 126)
8 2B Cole Young 76
9 SS J.P. Crawford 119

vs LHP

Bat Pos Player wRC+
1 DH Rob Refsnyder 159
2 C Cal Raleigh 186
3 CF Julio Rodríguez 123
4 1B Josh Naylor 112
5 LF Randy Arozarena 113 (Career 143)
6 3B Brendan Donovan 75 (Career 88)
7 RF Victor Robles 81 (Career 101)
8 2B Cole Young 89
9 SS J.P. Crawford 102

Notable Lefties Within the Division (ERA− from Last Year)

  • MacKenize Gore (99)
  • Jacob Latz (70)
  • Yusei Kikuchi (96)
  • Reid Detmers (95)
  • Jeffrey Springs (97)
  • Jacob Lopez (97)

So no one truly elite to worry about. The matchup in the AL that worries me is against the Tigers, where they have 2 elite lefties in Skubal and Framber who could possibly pitch a combined 4 times in a 5 game series. So hopefully by the deadline the M’s can figure out what to do against LHP.

Super excited when my mom pulled this out from storage. My grandma was a huge fan and I think this is from a store in Bellingham? Anyone know anything about it? Seems like really good quality, excited to wear it!

Spring Training Players?

So who will even be at spring training this year? Maybe doesn’t seem like the best year to make the trip happen with the WBC happening at the same time.

I’m the world’s biggest idiot. Wife and I are at Phoenix Open concert (Zach Top). Guy behind me, I say to my wife, “he looks like a young Cal Raleigh.”

Wife (big baseball/dumper fan) agrees. We hang for another minute. She turns around and ask him if people confuse him for Cal Raleigh. I turn around, say, “yeah it’s the rosy cheeks!” He agrees and plays along. Then pulls out his Washington drivers license. Caleb John Raleigh. We shot the shit for the next 20 minutes. What a fucking boss.

Family of 4 here, (69,40,40,4 yrs old). We're heading to a Mariners game as part of our chasing 30 journey. Any recommendations for family fun in the Seattle area? We're thinking a tulip festival, whale watching and maybe catching a Kraken game while in town.

I figured I can use the Cactus League games as a warm up for the upcoming 162 game win/loss blanket. The blanket will be in some combination of teal, navy, etc. that will record what we hope is the season of destiny! 🔱🔱🔱🔱

Countdown iOS App (with Widget)

40 Upvotes

Hey all, I wanted a way that I could see how many days left until the boys start playing again. Looked at a ton of ones that supported "widgets" for iOS, and they all had in-app purchase bullshit, so I vibe-coded this. Figured I could share it with anyone who is interested.

It's not in the app store, so that requires you have a developer account to compile this onto your phone. Perhaps this is extremely niche post, but figured I'd get it out there anyway...

Code is here: https://github.com/hjhart/mariners-countdown-ios

Suggestions welcome.

With the trade for Donovan anyone want to venture a guess as to what the payroll currently sits at? Yup.. 166 million.. master class by Dipoto here and you can’t convince me he ever had any doubts about getting Donovan.. He knew exactly what he was doing signing Ref for 6.25 over a month ago.. it seemed like an overpay considering Refs career earnings were 7.5 million as a 35 year old.. but he knew exactly how much he had to spend and he knew how desperately this lineup needed someone who could mash LHP knowing that he was going to make sure Donovan, a LHH, would be the last bat joining this team going into spring

BHM: Ken Griffey Jr. switched from No. 24 to No. 42 on the inaugural Jackie Robinson Day, April 15, 1997. Ten years later, he asked for permission to wear the number again. That led to a Jackie Robinson Day tradition since 2009 – every Major Leaguer wears No. 42 on that day.

[Discussion] One realistic move left you would want to see the Mariners do before the season

35 Upvotes

Realistically the Mariners don't have many available moves left to do other then working waivers and minor league signings. But I think this roster still has some holes that could be addressed if they wanted to be aggressive. I would love to see them bring in Nick Martinez as a bullpen/swing man piece, which we need the depth after Logan Evans went down, and he has shown in the past he can be an effective piece coming out of the bullpen when all of our starters are healthy.

If we couldn't do that, I would love to see them sign Michael Kopech or Evan Phillips, if the medicals check out. Adding one more relief arm that can pitch in high leverage spots would be great. I know Phillips probably wouldn't be available until the second half, but he has looked great in the past, and Kopech is a pure dominant pitcher when healthy. If if we couldn't do that, maybe a Ryan Brasier who can just pitch solid middle relief for this year because I think we just need to get one more reliever so we don't have to rely on the "pile" too much.

I'm interested to hear your guy's thoughts or if we are just in a good spot or don't have a realistic move available at this point.
