I was told Gabe Speier is the ultimate weapon.

Caleb Ferguson is trying to maneuver an October DFA.

2026 shortstop Jacob Lombard is one hell of a scouting experience. I spent an inordinate amount of time scouting, studying and analyzing every granular detail of his profile this week. It's a confounding nitroglycerin profile. Where do I begin...

💎MOCK DRAFT 1.0 HAS ARRIVED💎 The 2025 season has ended for nearly two-thirds of the league. MLB Draft lottery odds have been set. What does the first round of the 2026 MLB Draft look like?

From a sequencing, command and pitchability perspective, that Stephen Kolek start is among the best I’ve seen this season.

Perhaps the most physically, athletically gifted player in the entire 2026 class, Jackson Prep SS/OF Kevin Roberts Jr. is a star. But he’s always been told what he can, can’t, and should do. And he loves silencing the critics. He’s carving his own path.

My god.

Oy vey, Mets.

Oy vey, Mets.

Two weeks to go. Here are the odds to land the No. 1 pick in the 2026 Draft. Pittsburgh, Minnesota and Atlanta are all limping to the finish line.

Good to see Leo Rivas in the….. 11th… inning.

We have a very special guest on the Over-Slot Podcast tomorrow. One of the best to ever do it.

OUT NOW. Seattle Mariners VP of Amateur Scouting, Scott Hunter, joins the show for 30 min to discuss: 💎The madness of the 2025 Draft 💎The plan going forward for Kade Anderson 💎A late-round sleeper to keep an eye on 💎Nicky Becker's tools and ceiling 💎& more... www.patreon.com/posts/138129...

The Seattle Mariners and its fans are going through it right now. Yikes.

One of my biggest pet peeves in baseball is “you could argue they should have won that game too” to reinforce hot streaks. That would imply we should be including “you could argue they should have lost that game” as well. Plenty of wins in hot streaks are won by strokes of luck too.

Even Fangraphs would say the Titanic has an 86 percent chance of surviving the iceberg.

I genuinely think the conversation needs to be had whether Logan Evans is a better option than Luis Castillo for the stretch run.

The Houston Astros have so many players on the IL that Luis Castillo has become their favorite active player.

Death, Taxes, Logan Gilbert 6th Inning Sliders

When given the opportunity to pitch to a guy with an 8% K-Rate with the winning run on third base and 0 outs, you simply have to take it.

Kade Anderson is going to look good in Northwest Green.

This is the really rough part of this stupid extra-innings rule in MLB. One team gets the top of their lineup with a runner on second, the other gets the bottom of theirs. It likely balances over the course of the season, but in a vacuum it’s just awful.

OUT NOW Pittsburgh Pirates Scouting Director Justin Horowitz joins the show. 💎Seth Hernandez hype 💎More pitching over bats?? 💎How the Angel Cervantes situation transpired 💎Get excited about Murf Gray, Gustavo Melendez, Jack Anker, Carter Gwost and Dylan Palmer 💎2026 Draft

8 more Mariners strikeouts in the first three innings today after 7 yesterday.

Injuries cost several high-profile draft prospects significant time during the 2025 season. @oboctor.bsky.social has 16 players with top-shelf tools and talent that find themselves draft-eligible in 2026, hoping to reclaim their crowns next spring. READ: overslotbaseball.com/articles/sor...

Please. A reprieve.

And Gilbert then came out after the second inning. I’m generally not a hot take kind of guy, but what Dan Wilson did in the second inning should be fineable and suspension-worthy internally. It was dangerous, stupid and downright brainless.

Logan Gilbert missed time with a forearm strain THIS SEASON and Dan Wilson found it suitable to throw him for 50 pitches in the second inning? Negligence.

Did the Mariners entire rotation decide to stay in Seattle for the road trip? Holy shellacking, Batman.

This version of the Seattle Mariners in Baltimore, Maryland should hopefully get left on the tarmac.
