My first act as an active #Mariners poster is to share my list (bsky.app/profile/did:...) and Starter Pack (go.bsky.app/7SAFvgx) of Mariners-heavy accounts on here. Let me know whom I missed! #goms

I once interviewed John Delaney, very serious presidential candidate.

Tyler Glasnow........ your mind.......

Happy Opening Week! Come refuel your energy to combat The Horrors by finding your community with us, with baseball. For @lookoutlanding.bsky.social I kicked off our Seattle Mariners season preview by looking at their best position player group in two decades. www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

Really getting tired of Shohei Ohtani killing my theses. "It's the best ever thing! ... behind only Ohtani."

It was reported that Cal Raleigh is the person who invited Garver to camp. Another example of Raleigh doing a lot of FO-type legwork for this org.

Ondřej Satoria on why he nicknamed his 80 mph fastball: The Cannon 🤣 Full interview: youtu.be/U5reVFKW5j4

Cole Young just DEMOLISHED this baseball 478 feet, the longest HR of the spring so far

Taps the sign

Daniel Palencia said he started crying after getting to two strikes and being on the verge of closing out Venezuela's WBC title win. "I knew that moment was mine. I knew I could do it. I knew he's gonna swing and miss. I just knew it. In those moments you have to be romantic with baseball."

The Opening Weekend schedule continues to drive me nuts every year. Just give every team a four-game set starting on the same day? I don't know what's worse, beings a Giants/Yankees fan and having an off day on Day 2, or being a fan of the handful of teams that don't play until Friday.

Can't wait for the follow up article "Counting Fingers on My Pitchers".... do they all have ten? Let's find out

A good policy-baseball crossover analysis would be estimating the relative savings for each team on minor leaguer salary/benefits, given the states where their minor league affiliates are located.

File this under Fun Friday: looked at the distribution of projected WAR for starting pitchers and tried to figure which teams have the most depth 1-5.

In 2025, defense wasn't a strength of the #Mariners. Does it improve this year? www.mariners-consigliere.com/p/mariners-p...

I think my rank order of baseball right now is MLB Regular Season WBC College WS MLB Postseason

Since we're doing baseball Bluesky discourse again, here's an important reminder: your experience here is entirely dictated by how you curate the people you follow. If you want to see more baseball posting, @reneedechert.com has three (3!) well curated starter packs with 100s of people to follow.

People still really struggling with the algorithm thing and wondering why the constitutional law professors they follow aren’t talking about Vladdy Jr: Bluesky year 3

Big iced tea matchup on Friday

The news was broken by the founder of Boston Market, Jeff Passan

Daniel Palencia, Team Venezuela

We're headed into March Madness, and you know what that means: "Don’t let your heartstrings grab your brain cells," - especially when it comes to the sheer volume of AI slop folks are being fed on Facebook:

The Nationals optioned Harry Ford to AAA today, making Keibert Ruiz their No. 1 catcher for now, but Blake Butera insisted "he’s going to be a huge part of our future." Plus, a first base platoon appears to be set, and lineups for tonight's game: natsjournal.com/p/ford-optio...

Hilarious. As if on cue, just got my third “…. are you Sam Darnold?” of the new year. Third!

2026 Season Preview: Seattle Mariners by Bradley Woodrum (@bradleywoodrum.bsky.social) www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article...

“Passion and care are not the burdens of the Venezuelan team, they are their glue” www.lookoutlanding.com/mlb-news/140...

When Kyle Teel returns, the White Sox will again have the youngest catching tandem of the last 50 years. Like many catchers these days, both were top prospects acquired via trade.

Venezuelan commentary of the last out

Congrats to the 2026 WBC champs!

Venezuela wins the World Baseball Classic

Eugenio Suarez doubles to the gap, Venezuela takes the lead back 3-2

Please, Geno...

Chourio calling for the ball in the outfield like he’s demonstrating it for a youth clinic

We should have some newsy days coming. More on Crawford tomorrow, Opening Day starter in the next couple of days, could have a decision on Miller’s replacement as well.

Thinking about Venezuelan baseball

new @fangraphs.com: My first of two batches in our annual season preview. There's Vladito and ther's the rest of the pack, including some aging thumpers, a few up-and-comers, and a fair number of question marks.

Section 249 at T-Mobile Park all the way in the LF corner is one of my favorites because it's the cheapest Terrace Club section, generally empty, and attached to the concourse with the fish n sidewinders vendor (and bar).

ALERT ALERT THE SOUVENIR SNACK FERRY BOAT FLOATS

People are always a little insane about the color of my hair (orange), but oh boy people really cannot contain themselves St. Patrick's Day, a holiday I never remember exists until someone gleefully accosts me in public.

For obvious reasons, this story made my day. So glad that Dave Cameron not only gets to work for his childhood team and the team he spent years analyzing, but that he has a hand in shaping the best M’s team(s) in decades.

this crowd, man.

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.

I'm not too surprised that Jeff, Dave, and our community at LL have had the impact it has had on the Mariners front office over the last 20 years, but still pretty cool to hear them talk about it.

Dave Cameron, who taught #Mariners fans about analytics at USS Mariner, now helps shape the M's roster. And in fact, he and another former "blogfather" were instrumental in completing Seattle's Brendan Donovan trade. @shannondrayer.bsky.social has the story. sports.mynorthwest.com/mlb/seattle-...

Earlier this month, the Rangers installed a statue in their concourse that had previously been removed from public display over concerns about the racism. @davyandrewsdavy.bsky.social on the statue's history, the Ranger whose likeness it bears, and the team's decision not to grapple with either.

The Handshake Affair is also a sign that home runs are still very high on the list of things Americans care about.
