With the MLB trade deadline looming and the Seattle Mariners on the cusp of a playoff birth -- despite being in the midst of a "rebuilding" season -- here are 6 players they should consider unloading to stay the course and look towards long-term success.
Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger cranked both his 9th and 10th home runs of the 2021 season to pull into a tie for the American League lead in round-trippers but it wasn't enough as the M's bullpen couldn't hold on to a 4-1 lead late in the game at Chavez Ravine against the defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers.
Last night, the Mariners simply didn't have enough Kyles to keep up with the Houston Astros in a 5-2 loss as both namesakes Seager and Lewis both hit home runs. Tonight (April 27) only one Kyle collected the measly two hits.
A couple of home runs, including the first of the 2021 campaign by reigning American League Rookie of the Year Kyle Lewis, were the only damage the Seattle Mariners could muster tonight (April 26) against the nearly full-strength Houston Astros in a 5-2 loss.
The Seattle Mariners avoided a three-game sweep at the hands of the Chicago White Sox in a midday matinee at T-Mobile Park today (April 7) despite a poor start from pitcher Justin Dunn.
In just their fourth game in Cactus League play at the Peoria Sports Complex in Arizona, the Seattle Mariners are already showing some promising power in the batting line-up.
The most ancient of Mariners, Kyle Seager crushed an 0-1 pitch in the 6th inning to blow the game open with his 5th career Grand Slam to help propel the M's to a 10-2 win in Arlington, TX.
Saturday afternoon, I took my wife and son to the Seattle Mariners game at Safeco Field with tickets that I won from my insurance agent Ginger Brewer-Tyler. To say that the stubs were the only thing we got for free that day would be a MASSIVE understatement!
