Even if you assume perfect intentions from a committee largely made up of university athletic directors (lol), the CFP rankings are loaded with logical fallacies and cognitive biases on a regular basis. @rodger.bsky.social has it right — the “computers” were never the problem. The BCS format was.

Just say no to evaluating relievers based on ERA. Ferrer had the fourth highest groundball rate in baseball last year and struck out 4.5 guys for each one he walked. He did this while throwing to arguably the game's worst catching tandem and in front of a bottom-three defense.

well that’s certainly a trade

Somewhere I have a commemorative coin from Salute to Armed Forces Day on April 21, 2012, a game between the Mariners and White Sox… …also known as Philip Humber’s perfect game.

Adam Jude reporting in the Seattle Times this morning that despite a deal not being close, Jorge Polanco is believed to prefer a return to the Mariners headed into the Winter Meetings. www.seattletimes.com/sports/marin...

🗣️🗣️🗣️BRING BACK THE COMPUTERS

“rolling,” as in my work-in-progress rolling roof rundown, of course 🤓

Mariners posted this on their social media channels and that banner in the back is definitely going to be disorienting for a while 😂 (Side note: the team really should start posting on Bluesky!)

Happy Thanksgiving to my Mariners family on here. Hope you all have a fantastic day! 🦃

Been so busy the last couple days that I hadn’t really gotten the chance to take a hard look at the Mariners’ 2026 promotional schedule. AL West Champs Banner Night is gonna be a must-go for me.

If you have $5 or $10 to spare, send it Jules’ way. She needs food and medication while she’s battling cancer and applying for jobs. AI has completely decimated the industry she’s worked in, and has made getting a job, and job in any industry, a nightmare in Australia. PayPal link below ⬇️

Luke Raley was tendered a contract by the Mariners today. Gregory Santos, Trent Thornton and Tayler Saucedo (previously DFA’d) all non-tendered.

Adam Jude of the Seattle Times providing some great insight into the Mariners offseason plans in his article today. The M’s intend to give Colt Emerson every shot to win a starting spot on the Opening Day roster, much like Julio Rodríguez in 2022.

ICYMI: Mariners will retire Randy Johnson’s No. 51 on Saturday, May 2 prior to their game against the Kansas City Royals.

Fonts from multiple eras without clashing too much, has the compass but also the shape of my favorite and most forgotten logo, the big baseball with M’s on it…yeah they did a good job weaving the entire design history of the team into such a small canvas. Awesome work.

Mariners did a fantastic job with this one.

Josh Naylor. Seattle Mariner.

Five years, $92.5 million? I’ll take that all day long. Josh Naylor is a Mariner for this competitive window and I couldn’t be more thrilled. He makes this team so much better. You’ll rarely find a free agent that fits as well as he does.

Josh Naylor signing a five-year contract with the Mariners, per Jeff Passan.

#Mariners assistant general manager Andy McKay is reportedly heading to Cleveland to be the Guardians' field coordinator. McKay played key roles in Seattle's minor league development and draft process over 10 seasons with the organization. sports.mynorthwest.com/mlb/seattle-...

Jeff Passan of ESPN reporting that the Mariners are signing RHP Randy Dobnak to a minor-league deal with an invite to Spring Training.

Having flashbacks

Cal Raleigh wins the AL Silver Slugger Award at the catcher position.

Mariners announce they have acquired RHP Cole Wilcox from the Rays for cash considerations. Wilcox, a former starter and third-round pick in the 2020 Amateur Draft, had a solid 2025 season as a reliever in AAA Durham. DFA’d by TB in their roster crunch. A look at his Prospect Savant page below 👇

Some may disagree, but I think the Seahawks should go back to the old uniforms full time.

Wow, what a game.

Yamamoto warming up omg

The marine layer is so real

It’s really such a great sport.

I think I would’ve died already if this were the Mariners.

Do the Dodgers have a pitcher left who didn’t come of age during the Tet Offensive?

This is special, folks. This may be the last ever World Series appearance from a player whose name appeared in an episode title of the hit TNT legal comedy “Franklin and Bash.”

I’m begging for this.

checking in to say lol

The trick 'r treaters are getting something special this year.

I wasn’t going to watch the World Series, but then I caught a whiff of ‘Cal vs. Virginia Tech’ and changed my mind.

Heartbreaking.

I threw 140 pitches in my final college baseball game. I hope with all my heart there is another Mariners game this week I’ll need to summon the words for. If there’s not, well, I hope you can feel every pitch I wrote in this one. www.lookoutlanding.com/editorial/13...

🚨🚨VICTOR ROBLES IS BACK IN THE LINEUP EVERYONE🚨🚨

George Kirby starting in Game 7 for the Mariners.

Game 7 for the American League pennant tomorrow night.

This game isn’t over with the Blue Jays bullpen. Keep it going and get some outs.

Who am I kidding, they were always gonna leave this for Game 7. This is what they do.

Well, you’re not going to be able to say the Mariners didn’t have chances to get back in it.

This series has been a perfect swan song for “the human element.” Good riddance.
