fool me once...
Following the disastrous Battle of Carrhae, things changed in Rome. In modern day France, Gaius Julius Caesar defeated the last organized Gaulic resistance, and captured Vercingetorix, the so-called “king of all the Gauls.” The wealth that he plundered in Gaul made Caesar the richest Roman citizen, and his power and popularity was greater than almost anyone else in the city. Yet he still had one rival. His former political ally Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus.

Mariners prospects refuse to go gentle into that Everett night, rally in ninth
To let you in on a little secret, recapping the final game of spring training/the off-season inspires just as much impatience for the writers as it does for the players, so let’s get right to recapping this 7-6 Mariners win over the Padres with an eye towards the off-season tomorrow and then Opening Day on Thursday.
As is typical of a final preseason game, the starters got one or two at-bats and were removed, making the job of summarizing “what you care about” f ..read more

The final exhibition game of the 2024 season
We made it: today is the final exhibition game of the 2024 season. The games after this will be played by big-leaguers rather than call-ups from the minor-league side of camp, in big-league stadiums packed with fans (okay, maybe not in the case of the Coliseum, but still), and most importantly, they will count. But for today we have one more exhibition game to get through before an off-day and then the official opening of the 2024 Mariners season on Thursday night at T-Mobile Park.
In case you missed the news, Bryan ..read more

A quick look at the preseason projections and a little “what if it goes right/wrong” for the AL West.
Today, we’ll wrap up our preview of the AL West with a look at the preseason projections. A reminder: we’ve already compared the three major player groups on each division rival to each other: the lineups, the starting rotations, and the bullpens. Here’s how FanGraphs and Baseball Prospectus see the division shaking out.
The win totals displayed above are the 50th percentile results after the projections have been run thousands of times. FanGraphs actually has ..read more

Mariners starter Bryan Woo will begin the season on the 15-day IL due to right shoulder inflammation. RHP Emerson Hancock will take Woo’s place in the starting rotation until his return.
Around the league...
Arizona Diamondbacks closer Paul Sewald will start the season on the injured list with a left oblique strain, and the team does not yet have a timeline for his expected return.

Bryce Miller solid, bullpen holds the line, offense stacks some runs, could it really by this easy?
After a month-plus of meaningless games, there’s only one more exhibition game left before the games start to count. Tonight’s game felt more like a real game, though: played in Petco Park (oh publicly-available Statcast data, how I have missed you), in front of a sizable crowd of fans at a time other than a matinee...it felt more like a real game than those dreamy, dozy early-spring games, and yet no less relaxing, as the Mariners cruised to a 4-1 victory.

Exhibit A
Typing “exhibit” so many times has made me think of the rapper Xzibit and the fact that my mom used to think his name was “Xbiscuit,” which always made me think of a rapping Poppin’ Fresh. Anyway, today the Mariners play the first of two Xbiscuit games against the Padres, and we’ll get to the info shortly, but first, some bad news:
Bryan Woo will go on the IL with elbow inflammation

Well rats. Thankfully an MRI revealed no structural damage but Woo will miss his scheduled start tomorrow anyway, obviously; E ..read more

It’s feast or famine as far as relief corps go in the AL West.
The Astros and Angels spent a lot to upgrade their relief corps this offseason, though only one of those teams is actually projected to be good. Bullpen woes could be the reason why the Rangers fail in their quest to defend their championship. A reminder: we’re comparing the three major player groups on each division rival to each other: the lineups, the starting rotations, and the bullpens.
