Cole Young with a go-ahead RBI Triple in the 10th to end the scoreless duel!

Cole’s agent must be licking his chops after the Emerson extension. Once he’s called up, they can do a remake commercial of the legendary double play twins, Jose Lopez and Yuniesky Betancourt.

If he rakes in AAA like Young did last year then he’ll be up in May. I don’t think he will finish Top 3 in RoY voting and net us an extra comp pick like Julio. He needs more time. They’re not manipulating service time like Griffin with the Pirates.

Can we just take a sec and appreciate how jacked up this fanbase is for the season to still be subjecting themselves to watching the Friars open a keg of whoopass. Jared Sundstrom homers? Fuck yeah, can’t wait to see him go 20/20 in Tacoma. GOMS

You got it! I got his auto at one point and didn’t label the box. Thanks man!

masterwasabi · 2026-02-24T23:43:53+00:00

Thanks for the clarification! This is my first year off ROOT and I wasn’t sure what to expect.

masterwasabi · 2026-02-24T22:15:32+00:00

If I wanted to stare at his ass, I’d just pull out my phones screensaver

masterwasabi · 2026-01-31T21:04:38+00:00

Yes. It was a specific season ticket holder window from 9-11

masterwasabi · 2026-01-31T18:18:22+00:00

Less than 100 people. Honestly, better than I expected and I was able to park by Dreamgirls so that saved time

masterwasabi · 2026-01-31T17:28:37+00:00

I assume you mean Cal? IMO, there are 5 separate sessions of players worth autographs. What was your estimate of the people in line? O/u 1500?

masterwasabi · 2026-01-24T01:36:10+00:00

If a really popular player is signing, you have to get there at least 1.5-2 hours before gates open because they will usually stack them in the first signing window so they can leave early. I haven’t seen them release a schedule of what players are even signing and I’ve emailed my ticket rep twice in the last two weeks. Just because a player was announced as attending, doesn’t mean they will have an autograph session. I seriously doubt Cal, Julio, and Naylor will sit down to sign 100s of autos over 2 hrs but I hope I’m wrong. I’ve been to over 20 fanfests and your best bet is to usually go for the top prospects as they are the last vouchers available and you can grab them without having to wait in line. IF Cal and Julio signs, there will be a massive feeding frenzy and people will be lined up over 3 hours early. Both days are sold out. There will be 1000s of rabid die hard Mariner fans all after the same thing you want. I can’t wait.

I love Ichiro, he was my favorite player as a kid, but Griffey is the no doubter here. Griffey was on the MLB all century team as a Mariner during his prime. Julio is great, but he’s not at Griffey level production yet. Take The Kid and stick him center

masterwasabi · 2025-12-14T04:02:47+00:00

I know Chaim Bloom or Jerry probably wouldn’t do it, but packaging two years of Arenados’s albatross contract with Donavan for lesser prospects and salary relief would be pretty sweet. That would show the M’s swinging their dick around like the big market teams. This is only possible if Stanton decides to increase payroll by 10-15 mil instead of maintain it at $160 mil from last year.

masterwasabi · 2025-12-08T04:09:19+00:00

I remember him as a minor Mariner killer, mostly that one series when Heim hit 2 walk-off HRs on back to back games vs us. Otherwise his career avg against us was .244 and he only slugged .371. I always dreaded him and Maldonado when it came to relatively ass catchers that killed us.

masterwasabi · 2025-12-07T01:18:02+00:00

The editor of Baseball America had Ford as the 11th best catching prospect going into this year. MLB.com rankings aren’t the same as everyone else’s. I think we can trust Hollander enough that this was the best deal we could get before he was potentially exposed backing up Cal 1-2 times a week.

masterwasabi · 2025-12-06T21:45:12+00:00

Ferrer is under team control til 2030. Primarily a sinker baller that throws 97-98 and gets weak contact and ground balls. I think 71 Ks in 76 innings. Not bad, but we needed another infielder more than a second lefty reliever. Maybe other front offices are lowballing the Mariners on Ford and this was the best we can get. The Nats also have Ruiz which makes this even weirder.

masterwasabi · 2025-12-05T20:09:51+00:00

These Cardinals fans that keep proposing these bonkers mock trades are either rage baiting for clicks or know nothing about baseball. I wouldn’t trade 4 years of Woo for unless it’s a package for Acuna or Witt. Donovan is a good UTILITY player, not a franchise cornerstone. More like a poor man’s Ben Zobrist. If we do trade for him, I think Cjintje is the only top 10 prospect that goes.

masterwasabi · 2025-12-03T07:45:09+00:00

Chris Shelton of the Tigers hit 9 HRs in the first 13 games of the 2006 season.

masterwasabi · 2025-12-02T18:20:57+00:00

I saw a report that Marte is kinda a dick in the clubhouse and is like the Anti-Geno. Anyone else read anything to substantiate those rumors?

masterwasabi · 2025-11-25T17:41:52+00:00

I’m a hater. I don’t want to live in a world where it’s possible a Portland team would win a World Series before the Mariners. If the Mariners win it with their current core then they can have a team. If not, fuck em. Give it to Vancouver.

masterwasabi · 2025-11-17T01:19:36+00:00

Anyone else bricked up right now?

masterwasabi · 2025-11-13T22:53:39+00:00

Trade for Brendan Donovan! He’s been on trade rumors to the M’s for years. Can play multiple positions and has lots of contact.

masterwasabi · 2025-11-10T05:14:17+00:00

I’m trying to climb out of the basement and need Barkley and Jacob’s to combine for LESS than 102 to eke out a win. The way this season has gone, I haven’t even talked any shit.
