@johntrupin.bsky.social, @95coffeespoons.bsky.social & @katepreusser.bsky.social talk the return of Bryce Miller, the rotation shuffle and an offensive return to form. @lookoutlanding.bsky.social @ffsn.bsky.social #GoMs #GoMariners #Mariners podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

Happy Kelenic-th day of being open to Gloom Coffee Bar, who promised free samples to @lookoutlanding.bsky.social readers and (unlike Jarred) certainly delivered. Great coffee, an impending NA cocktail program with drinks decidedly the opposite of gloomy, and just blocks from T-Mobile Park

Munetaka Murakami's first 14 MLB extra-base hits have been home runs That extends the longest such streak to start a player’s MLB career since at least 1900 Prior longest: 10, 2016 Dae-ho Lee  h/t @EliasSports

I’ve seen a lot of calls to fire Dan Wilson, and yelling about Cal/Julio/Naylor, and the mixed bag rotation, but I’ve yet to see anyone pointing fingers at the Mariners being 16-19 in the aggressively marketed Amazon fire tv era. When in doubt, blame Bezos

dying at this page of baseball quotes from the latest print edition of @theonion.com

Inspired by the air horn echoing cavernously in the ninth inning of a lackluster, rainy losing game with approximately 984 people in attendance: Do you think there is a point when they turn off the air horn and/or “GET LOUD” pump up commands?

Per @baseball_ref, the Rockies' 1-0 loss tonight was only their fourth 1-0 home defeat in club history, and their first such defeat in nearly 20 years, since Aug. 1, 2006.

Munetaka Murakami’s nine home runs are the most of any Japanese-born player in his first 23 MLB games He has three more than any other Japanese-born player in first 23 MLB games, ahead of Shohei Ohtani, who had six in his first 23 games as a hitter

Love this sign at the ballpark tonight 🥹🥹🥹

What are we doing here, y’all?

“That was a good thump, you guys could probably hear it at home,” reports RyOn Healy on tonight’s broadcast, his voice a mix of excited horror. This man is exactly who he seemed when he played and while I’m not sure how that bodes for his longterm career in the booth, it is wildly entertaining to me

The @mariners.com take a crucial series victory against the Rangers against a tough slate of pitching. @katepreusser.bsky.social @johntrupin.bsky.social @95coffeespoons.bsky.social @lookoutlanding.bsky.social @ffsn.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/4iIu...

had to grab that randy and julio dugout celly

Had I known he just needed my presence I would have come to a game sooner

I know I’m lashing out and there are bigger issues, but if you sign a guy to do one job, which is functionally less of a job and more just a way of being (hitting right-handed), it’s probably not ideal that guy has only been on base three times (none due to hits) and is averaging four pitches per PA

Bit of an echo chamber I know, but if you listen to this podcast - or other baseball pods - and have feedback, we’d love to hear it. This episode was a trial run with fewer folks and a shorter run time, aiming to be more timely. Did you like it? Hate it? Miss last week’s Rockies content? Let us know

The @mariners.com have righted the ship with a critical sweep over the Houston Astros and @johntrupin.bsky.social and @95coffeespoons.bsky.social break down the breakout series. @lookoutlanding.bsky.social / @ffsn.bsky.social #Mariners #SeattleMariners #GoMs podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

Get right series against the Astros. Sure, why not?

Officially tied with a fellow JP (Jim Presley) for second-most walk-offs in franchise history

There's been some chatter about Cal Raleigh's swing plane being steeper early in the season. Good news: it looks like he's flattening it out, per @johntrupin.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

Incredible new personality quiz for Mariners fandom just dropped: Are you absolutely cackling or are you panicking about this as the latest bad omen?

There is a growing section of shirtless Rockies fans at Coors Field chanting "Take it off, take it off!" the group is getting bigger as more topless people join

Hey boo 💕 I promise your baseball team isn’t as bad as you think it is right now (unless you’re a Twins fan, in which case I think you’re hosed)

Eating a turkey sandwich, watching Luis Castillo throwing gas as the sun sets after 7 pm. I used to pray for times like this (literally last week)

Sunday Night Baseball on Peacock really affirming my newly-formed “Only One Reliever at a Time on a Broadcast” rule

It’s rally ferry time

Rookie move by me that, when considering all the annoying things about ABS this year, I failed to factor in how catastrophically obnoxious the “why aren’t you tapping your helmet you moron” discourses would be

In the last few years, I started reading this each Opening Day and sending an extra thought of the baseball lovers I’ve lost out into the universe. I’m not particularly religious, but it’s a way to feel like they can still come along on new seasons with us. mason.gmu.edu/~rmatz/giama...

thanks to @95coffeespoons.bsky.social's recap of today's spring training game i learned that mitch garver and d.j. peterson were college teammates and i think i need to go lie down

Bottom of the ninth, two outs, one strike, geopolitically tense World Baseball Classic title on the line. Thank you to the LoanDepot Park organist for giving us "If You're Happy and You Know It Clap Your Hands" in that exact moment

I’ve never seen more tears after winning a championship. It’s baseball, and it’s fucking everything

On Saturday, I watched my mom become the #1 Emmanuel De Jesus fan. Did that mean she spent most of Monday’s game demanding to know why they weren’t bringing Emmanuel De Jesus in? Yes. Am I now attempting to create from scratch an Emmanuel De Jesus jersey for her? Also yes. The WBC is so great

How to describe the experience of Venezuelan players at a fraught political time in VZ and the US? The Red Sox’ 5 Venezuelan players - Narváez, Abreu, Suarez, Contreras, Monasterio - offered insight into what Abreu called a “double life.” Story for Globe Magazine: www.bostonglobe.com/2026/03/17/m...

The role they describe in here I think is incredibly valuable. Narrative/storytelling is crucial in decision making. If you can't synthesize and defend your philosophy at a high level in plain language, then you don't understand it. Broad strokes, watercolors, picturing the view from 50K feet, etc.

Omar Lopez with the jokes postgame 😂 Q. Is everyone available in the bullpen? OMAR LOPEZ: Even Johan Santana is going to pitch.

Spanish broadcast: “the only boring team at the tournament has been Team USA” #wbc

An underrated magical part of these WBC games is watching so many people in the crowd FaceTiming their friends and loved ones from back home

Well that’s a heavy-handed way for this game to end

Forget national pride, I am levitating with an unparalleled level of Seattle Mariners pride

We are not talking enough about Albert Pujols in his new glasses

I cover a lot of the mind-numbingly frustrating things about baseball. a lot of the time, it sucks the fun out of watching a game and it's just ... whatever. but goddamn if the World Baseball Classic doesn't remind me why I fell in love with baseball in the first place

🇻🇪

There’s no crowd like a WBC crowd (Not pictured: the full (and choreographed!) band playing for Team Japan)

They’re showing a full recap of the 2017 WBC as we’re in a rain delay in San Juan and this must be what it feels like to attend your high school reunion. Talk about formative years/players, phew

Don’t you dare sleep on Team Nicaragua this WBC

Huge shoutout to @meetatthemitt.bsky.social listener Josh for sending us this in response to our most recent pod on the WBC and Mariners Spring Training.

This shouldn’t be novel, but especially after all the crap this week with the men’s hockey team, it’s really meaningful to hear a professional athlete speak this way
