Let’s answer that question by picking out the best Mariners players of all time and examine why they ended up on this list.</p><h2><b>10. Jay Buhner</b></h2><p>Position: Right Field</p><p>Years with Mariners: 1988-2001</p><p>Notable Accolades: 1996 AL All-Star, 1996 Gold Glove winner</p><p>Jay Buhner wasn’t always a key piece of the Mariners during his 14 seasons with them, but he quietly became one of the best players in their history with a solid seven-season stretch midway through his career.</p><p>Buhner eventually found his way into the lineup on an everyday basis, and while he only made it to the All-Star Game once, his stretch from 1995-1997, in which he hit more than 40 home runs and drove in at least 109 runs in each season, was one of the best in Mariners history.</p><p>Buhner’s peak didn’t last long, but he was so good during that time that he ends up sneaking onto this list at No. 10.</p><h2><b>9. Robinson Cano</b></h2><p>Position: Second Base</p><p>Years with Mariners: 2014-2018</p><p>Notable Accolades: Three-time AL All-Star</p><p>Robinson Cano will likely be remembered more for outrageously expensive contract than what he actually did with the Mariners, but during his five season stretch in Seattle, Cano played some really good baseball. He traded contact for power and power for contact from time to time at the plate, but he was still easily Seattle’s best hitter every season he was with them.</p><p>Cano earned three of his eight All-Star berths with the Mariners, and finished in the Top 10 of the American League MVP race twice as well. Despite that, signs of his regression quickly set in, and the Marines traded him halfway through his 10-year deal to the New York Mets. Still, his time with the Marines was memorable, even if it ended on a fairly sour note.</p><h2><b>8. Jamie Moyer</b></h2><p>Position: Starting Pitcher</p><p>Years with Mariners: 1996-2006</p><p>Notable Accolades: 2003 AL All-Star</p><p>Jamie Moyer might have the most interesting career in the history of the MLB. He never really established himself in the MLB until well after his 30th birthday and ended up finding a consistent home with the Mariners in 1996. Moyer only had two losing seasons during his time with Seattle, which is rather impressive considering their history of losing.</p><p>Either way, Moyer was never the best pitcher, and he had some truly ugly seasons along the way, but he never gave up. Moyer earned his first and only All-Star berth in 2003 when he was 40 years old and finished in the top six of the AL Cy Young race three times. Moyer played in MLB until he was 49, but it was his years with Seattle that helped him establish his legacy.</p><h2><b>7. Kyle Seager</b></h2><p>Position: Third Base</p><p>Years with Mariners: 2011-2021</p><p>Notable Accolades: 2014 AL All-Star, 2014 Gold Glove winner</p><p>If nothing else, Kyle Seager was consistent throughout his career with the Mariners. Aside from his initial 53-game stint in the majors in 2011 and the shortened 2020 season, Seager hit at least 20 home runs every season. His production varied from time to time, but for the most part, the Mariners always knew what they were getting with Seager.</p><p>He doesn’t post gaudy numbers, but it never really mattered because he was the best player on some pretty bad Mariners teams. It’s a shame that Seager decided to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mariners-news-seattle-third-baseman-kyle-seager-announces-retirement" rel="noopener">call it a career</a> right as Seattle was beginning to find some success, but it’s clear his career will always be appreciated by the Mariners.</p><h2><b>6. Alex Rodriguez</b></h2><p>Position: Shortstop and Third Base</p><p>Years with Mariners: 1994-2000</p><p>Notable Accolades: Four-time AL All-Star, Four-time Silver Slugger</p><p>Long before Alex Rodriguez went on to become a New York Yankees legend, he made his name with the Seattle Mariners as one of the brightest young stars in the game. Rodriguez truly broke out in 1996 when he hit .358 and finished second in the AL MVP race, and the rest is history.</p><p>Rodriguez hit at least 41 home runs in his final three seasons with the Mariners, and while he didn’t end up posting the huge numbers he had with the Texas Rangers and the Yankees, Rodriguez still did more than enough to cement his place as one of the greatest Mariners of all time despite his short stint there.</p><h2><b>5. Randy Johnson</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Randy-Johnson-makes-a-speech.jpg"><figcaption>Steven Bisig-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Position: Starting Pitcher</p><p>Years with Mariners: 1989-1998</p><p>Notable Accolades: 1995 AL CY Young, Five-time AL All-Star, Hall of Famer, No-hitter on June 2, 1990</p><p>The Mariners stumbled onto Johnson in 1989, and similar to Rodriguez, they got to watch a star be born, only to watch him reach new heights after he left them. Johnson got better with age, and over his time with the Mariners, he turned himself into the pitcher that eventually would win four straight Cy Young awards with the Arizona Diamondbacks.</p><p>Johnson won the Cy Young in 1995 for the M’s and finished in the Top 3 three times, showcasing early hints of his dominant stretch with the Arizona Diamondbacks. He cemented his Hall of Fame status with other MLB teams, but he managed to figure things out with Seattle and will still go down as one of the best pitchers in their history.</p><h2><b>4. Felix Hernandez</b></h2><p>Position: Starting Pitcher</p><p>Years with Mariners: 2005-2019</p><p>Notable Accolades: 2010 AL Cy Young, Six-time AL All-Star, Perfect game on Aug. 15, 2012</p><p>Felix Hernandez’s peak was somewhat short, but during his heyday, there wasn’t a better pitcher in the MLB than him. Hernandez would mow down hitters on a nightly basis for the Mariners, and from 2007 to 2015, he almost never missed a start. Hernandez won the AL Cy Young in 2010 with a wildly impressive campaign, and finished in the Top 10 of the voting on five other occasions.</p><p>His arm eventually wore down in his early 30s, but that’s what usually happens when you pitch more than 200 innings in eight straight seasons. That shouldn’t take away from everything that Hernandez accomplished, though, and he is easily the greatest pitcher in Mariners history.</p><h2><b>3. Ichiro Suzuki</b></h2><p>Position: Right Field</p><p>Years with Mariners: 2001-2012, 2018-2019</p><p>Notable Accolades: 2001 AL MVP, 2001 AL Rookie of the Year, 10-time AL All-Star, 10-time Gold Glove winner, Three-time Silver Slugger</p><p>Ichiro Suzuki’s peak, similar to Hernandez, didn’t last as long as other players, but he was one of the most captivating players in the league. In fact, if this was a list of most popular Mariners players, he would be higher on this list, if not No. 1.</p><p>Suzuki came over to the MLB in 2001 from Japan, and immediately won Rookie of the Year and MVP as he led the M’s to an MLB-tying 116 wins. Ichiro racked up more than 200 hits in 10 consecutive seasons to start his career with the Mariners, and he never truly stopped hitting the ball. In fact, he set the MLB record for most hits in a season with 262 in 2004.</p><p>Suzuki also was one of the best defensive outfielders in the game, stole more than 40 bases in five seasons, including in 2011 when he was 37 years old, and was constantly one of the top MVP candidates in the AL. Ichiro returned to Seattle to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ichiro-suzuki-announces-his-retirement-from-baseball" rel="noopener">end his career</a>, but his first 10-year stretch with the Mariners was one of the greatest in the history of the league.</p><h2><b>2. Edgar Martinez</b></h2><p>Position: Designated Hitter and Third Base</p><p>Years with Mariners: 1987-2004</p><p>Notable Accolades: Seven-time All-Star, Five-time Silver Slugger, Hall of Famer</p><p>Edgar Martinez was a late bloomer, as he didn’t really find a consistent role with the Mariners until 1990 when he was 27. But once he did, there was no stopping him. Martinez quickly cemented himself as one of the best all-around hitters in the game and put together quite the career at the plate for Seattle primarily as a designated hitter.</p><p>Martinez never won an MVP, but he can awfully close in 1995 when he hit .356 with 29 home runs and 113 runs batted in. Even when he wasn’t hitting, Martinez was always drawing walks, and he had five seasons where he had an OPS above 1.000, which is just absurd. Martinez rightfully earned a spot in the Hall of Fame, and he is easily one of the greatest Mariners players of all time.</p><h2><b>1. Ken Griffey Jr.</b></h2><p>Position: Centerfielder</p><p>Years with Mariners: 1989-1999, 2009-2010</p><p>Notable Accolades: 1997 AL MVP, 10-time AL All-Star, 10-time Gold Glove winner, Seven-time Silver Slugger, Hall of Famer</p><p>Was there any other choice than Ken Griffey Jr.? At the top of his game, Griffey was the most electric player in the game, whether it be his absolute rockets for home runs or his ridiculous defensive plays, there wasn’t a player more fun to watch than “The Kid.”</p><p>He could absolutely mash the baseball while hitting for average as well, and Griffy ended up winning the AL MVP award in 1997 when he hit .304 while hitting 56 home runs and driving in 147 runs.</p><p>Griffey’s destructive overall style of play did sap him of his abilities a bit earlier than expected, although that was the Cincinnati Reds problem more so than the Mariners. Either way, Griffey was simply spectacular during his peak with Seattle, and he easily earns the top spot on the greatest Mariners list.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He is the logical trade chip for the Mariners because he is on a five-year, $108 million contract. The Mariners could get some offensive help in a trade involving Castillo along with some financial flexibility. Castillo counts for $21.6 million against the Mariners’ luxury tax payroll for at least through the 2027 season, and there is a vesting option for the 2028 season as well.</p><p>It has been an interesting start to the 2025 season for the Mariners and the rest of the American League West.

Trailing by five runs entering the eighth inning, the Mariners stunned the Houston Astros with a 7-6 comeback victory to earn their first series win of the 2025 season. Arozarena’s fingerprints were all over it, <a href="https://sports.mynorthwest.com/mlb/seattle-mariners/randy-walk-off-seattle-mariners-over-astros-7-6/1806627" rel="noopener">including a thunderous grand slam</a> and a patient walk-off walk.</p><p>The chaos began in the bottom of the eighth, when three straight Mariners worked walks to load the bases. After two quick outs threatened to waste the opportunity, Arozarena stepped in and unloaded on a Steven Okert pitch, launching it 384 feet at 107.2 mph to left field for a grand slam. The blast — which carried a 6.4-second hang time — cut Houston’s lead to just one, igniting the crowd at T-Mobile Park.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Randy Arozarena, grand slam — and it keeps the Mariners alive here in the bottom of the 8th inning</p><p>Exit velo: 107.2 mph<br>Launch angle: 35°<br>Distance: 384 ft.<br>Hang time: 6.4 seconds <a href="https://t.co/5aH50hHqXw">pic.twitter.com/5aH50hHqXw</a></p><p>— Daniel Kramer (@DKramer_) <a href="https://twitter.com/DKramer_/status/1910103909584244781?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 9, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>The Astros added an insurance run in the ninth, but Seattle wasn’t done.

Mitch Garver then walked to reload the bases, and though Cal Raleigh grounded into a force out at home, it set the stage for Arozarena one final time.</p><p>With two outs and the game on the line, Arozarena worked a full count against Astros reliever Bryan Abreu.

In the ninth inning of <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/giants-news-willy-adames-hero-epic-giants-home-debut">Sunday’s 5-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants</a>, Robles made a jaw-dropping grab that immediately sparked concern.</p><p>Sprinting into foul territory in right field, he fully extended over the low railing to rob Patrick Bailey of extra bases. Robles crashed into the netting, flipping over the wall, and landed hard — clearly in pain as he clutched his left shoulder. He was carted off the field moments later, his teammates and trainers rushing to his side. Mariners manager Dan Wilson later confirmed it was a shoulder-related injury, and Robles is <a href="https://www.chronicleonline.com/sports/mlb/mariners-robles-carted-off-field-with-shoulder-injury-after-making-dazzling-catch-against-giants/article_3cb8a1b0-c63b-565d-be59-ecb61fc67c43.html" rel="noopener">undergoing further testing</a> at Oracle Park.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Victor Robles exits the game after making an incredible catch. <a href="https://t.co/uJb3XG7AFD">pic.twitter.com/uJb3XG7AFD</a></p><p>— MLB (@MLB) <a href="https://twitter.com/MLB/status/1909015694173217045?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 6, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>“He’s such a force,” Wilson said. “Big hits, the great defense that he plays. He causes a lot of havoc on the bases, doing what he does out there. He’s a great guy to have at the top of your lineup. That’s why we’re hoping for the best.”</p><h2><b>Giants sweep the Mariners after Victor Robles sacrificed his body for his team</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Victor-Robles-1.jpg"><figcaption>Neville E. Guard-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Robles, 31, had started 2025 right where he left off last season — hot. Through 10 games, he was hitting .273 with three RBIs and three stolen bases. In 2024, he hit .328 for Seattle and went 30-for-31 in stolen base attempts, earning a two-year, $9.75 million extension with a club option through 2027. It was a massive rebound for a player whose career had been sidetracked by injuries during his time with the Nationals.</p><p>“He made all that effort,” center fielder Julio Rodríguez said. “But it was at a high cost. I just noticed he was in pain and called the trainers immediately.”</p><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/giants-news-justin-verlander-special-silver-lining-home-debut-dud">Giants ended up winning on the next pitch</a> — a walk-off single by Wilmer Flores — but it was Robles’ health that lingered long after the final score.</p><p>Giants right fielder Mike Yastrzemski, familiar with the ballpark’s quirky layout, praised the presence of netting where Robles landed. “Who knows what could have happened?” Yastrzemski said. “It’s one of those things where you hope he’s OK. I’ve never seen anything like that.”</p><p>The play could’ve been ruled foul, but Robles made the catch anyway — a testament to his hustle and grit. “That’s not who he is,” Mariners starter Bryan Woo said of the idea of letting the ball drop. “He’s got the respect of everybody in the clubhouse.”</p><p>Seattle now faces tough questions. With few ready-made replacements, the Mariners may need to get creative. Dylan Moore is filling in at third for the injured Jorge Polanco. Luke Raley could shift to the outfield, while first base duties get split between Donovan Solano, Tyler Locklear, or Austin Shenton. Dominic Canzone is also an option from Triple-A. No matter what the Mariners do next, they’ll be hoping for good news on Robles — a player who’s fought his way back before and, if history is any indicator, isn’t done fighting yet.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

When asked about his approach at the plate, Randy Arozarena made it clear that his goal is to <a href="https://www.mlb.com/news/randy-arozarena-breaks-hitless-stretch-with-homer" rel="noopener">go yard as often as possible</a>, according to Mariners writer Daniel Kramer of MLB.com.</p><p>“I always go up to bat and try to hit that ball as hard as I can,” Arozarena said through an interpreter. “Sometimes the field can play against you, but … it doesn’t matter if you play here or anywhere else, I’m just going up with the same approach no matter where I’m playing.”</p><p>Through 16 at-bats so far this season, Randy Arozarena owns a .188 batting average with a .350 OBP. He’s also recorded two home runs and two RBIs off of his three hits. The veteran outfielder aims to make the 2025 season his fifth consecutive year hitting 20 or more homers.</p><p>The 2021 Rookie of the Year began his career with the Tampa Bay Rays. However, midway through the 2024 season, Arozarena was traded to the Mariners. Seattle sent two top prospects, outfielder Aidan Smith and right-handed pitcher Brody Hopkins, back to the Rays for the slugger. Playing in 54 games with Seattle, Randy Arozarena recorded a .231 batting average and a .356 OBP while hitting five home runs and 23 RBIs in 2024.</p><p>Arozarena and the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting/tigers-mariners-prediction-odds-pick-4-1-2025">Mariners hope to get back in the win column</a> on Tuesday night when they take on the Detroit Tigers. It’s the second contest of a three-game series between the two teams. Seattle lost the first game of the series 9-6 on Monday evening.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/seattle-mariners/mariners-news-105-million-contract-extension-star-catcher">signed catcher Cal Raleigh to a six-year extension worth $105 million</a>. He was rewarded for his great defensive catching while being one of Seattle’s best hitters. Mariners president Jerry DiPoto <a href="https://marinersblog.mlblogs.com/mariners-extend-cal-raleigh-to-six-year-contract-through-2030-with-vesting-player-option-for-2031-e2045c63b685" rel="noopener">released a statement</a> about Raleigh in the official announcement.</p><p>“Cal is central to so much of what we do as a team,” Dipoto said. “His leadership on the field, combined with elite defense and impact offense, is rare among catchers in the game. We are fortunate that he’s a Mariner and thrilled that he’s here for the long haul.”</p><p>The extension buys out Raleigh’s final two years of arbitration and four years of free agency. When it expires, he will be 35 years old. The Mariners’ park is the hardest to hit in across baseball, but Raleigh has figured it out in his five-year MLB career. He led the team with 34 homers and 100 RBIs, 11 and 38 of which came at home in 2024.</p><p>The Mariners’ big issue last year was offense. Raleigh was the only player with over 70 RBIs and they had the second-lowest team batting average in the league. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/seattle-mariners/mariners-gm-knows-hell-get-roasted-after-breaking-silence-on-do-nothing-offseason">Seattle did not do much to help itself in the offseason</a>, so Raleigh will have to step up.</p><h2><b>The Mariners have the pitching and need the offense</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Cal-Raleigh-with-Seattle-Mariners.jpg"><figcaption>Steven Bisig-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Reports and rumors have been swirling about what exactly is going on in Seattle’s home park. Whether the batter’s eye is crooked or not, Raleigh is not having any issues. Plus, he is leading one of the best rotations in the league that should be back in that category this season on defense.</p><p>The Mariners have talented players around Raleigh, like Julio Rodriguez and Randy Arozarena. But they need to see the best of those players this season to make the playoffs. The Houston Astros will still challenge for the division title and the Texas Rangers’ World Series hangover should be over. Seattle has to step up to compete this season.</p><p>Last year, the Mariners got off to an excellent start and then blew a ten-game division lead faster than any team in history. This year, they need to get off to a solid start and hold the line to reward the significant investment in this core. Otherwise, there could be significant changes.</p><p>The Mariners host the Athletics on Opening Day on Thursday. Maybe Raleigh can show out in his first game on a new deal.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

While a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/toronto-blue-jays/blue-jays-rumors-insider-577-million-vladimir-guerrero-jr-prediction">megadeal is still on the table</a>, as the two sides seem motivated to get a deal done, the Blue Jays can’t afford to lose him for nothing. A trade with the Seattle Mariners makes sense if it comes down to that.</p><h2><b>Mariners trade proposal for Vladimir Guerrero Jr. </b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Vladimir-Guerrero-Jr-1.jpg"><figcaption>Nathan Ray Seebeck</figcaption></figure><p><b>Mariners receive: </b>Vladimir Guerrero Jr.</p><p><b>Blue Jays receive: </b>Lazaro Montes (Mariners No. 2 prospect, MLB 42nd), Cole Young (Mariners No. 3, MLB 49th), Ryan Sloan (Mariners No. 8), Luke Raley</p><p>The Mariners are one of the best teams in baseball, but that is predominantly because of their pitching staff. With Logan Gilbert, Luis Castillo, Bryce Miller, Bryan Woo, Emerson Hancock, and George Kirby, Seattle has arguably the deepest rotation in the MLB. They desperately need an impact bat, and they can land one in the form of Guerrero without even sacrificing their pitching depth.</p><p>The Mariners have one of the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/mlb-stories/top-10-mlb-farm-systems-ahead-of-2025-season">best farm systems in the MLB</a>. They have seven players in MLB.com’s <a href="https://www.mlb.com/milb/prospects" rel="noopener">top 100 prospects list</a>, which is tied for the most in the league. It will certainly take some big-name prospects to get a deal done for a player of Guerrero’s caliber, but losing minor leaguers such as Lazaro Montes and Cole Young would be well worth it for Seattle.</p><p>Guerrero is coming off of his best season since 2021, but it didn’t prevent Blue Jays from finishing last in the American League East. Last year, the first baseman hit 30 home runs while still maintaining a .323 batting average. He is clearly one of the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/mlb-stories/ranking-50-best-mlb-players-2025-season">best players in baseball,</a> and because he is still only 26 years old, he may not have even reached his fullest potential yet. Guerrero’s best season came at age 22, when he belted 48 home runs.</p><p>Guerrero would take Luke Raley’s spot in this trade. Raley is a solid player, but Guerrero would be a massive upgrade over him, as he’d be the offensive star that the team desperately needs. This move would follow an <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/seattle-mariners/grading-mariners-rays-blockbuster-randy-arozarena-trade">MLB trade deadline deal last season for Randy Arozarena,</a> and it may finally get the Mariners over the hump.</p><h2><b>Blue Jays can’t risk losing Vladimir Guerrero Jr. for nothing</b></h2><p>Trading Guerrero away would not be an easy choice for the Blue Jays, but it might become a necessary one sooner rather than later. The AL East is stacked, and even after a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/toronto-blue-jays/mlb-rumors-blue-jays-anthony-santander-4-year-82-million-contract-offer">free agent move for Anthony Santander</a>, the team could still finish last in their division. In that case, a franchise reset and complete rebuild would be more than necessary.</p><p>There would be no better way to kick off a rebuild than to dangle one of the best trade chips in baseball. Guerrero would demand a huge trade haul because he is not only talented but because he is still so young. The Blue Jays don’t seem to be willing to pay the price Guerrero is requesting in contract talks, and they can’t afford to lose him for nothing.</p><p>The Blue Jays could stay afloat with the addition of Raley in this hypothetical trade while also retooling for the future with three of the Mariners’ best prospects. Toronto certainly shouldn’t give Guerrero away for cheap, but if someone like the Mariners comes knocking with a huge trade offer, then the Blue Jays should strongly consider taking it.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

After a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/3-offseason-moves-mariners-make-missing-playoffs">historic collapse in 2024, they need better offense to power through a crowded American League Wild Card</a> race. But an injury to a long-time Seattle stalwart forced a roster move few saw coming. The Mariners cut Mitch Haniger before Opening Day, <a href="https://x.com/RyanDivish/status/1903858611912094151" rel="noopener">ending his second stint</a> with the team. Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times broke the news Sunday.</p><p>“The Mariners have released Mitch Haniger,” Divish wrote in a social media post. “The veteran outfielder/designated hitter hasn’t played since the first week of [March] due to left shoulder soreness. They owe him $15.5 million for this season.”</p><p>Haniger joined the Mariners in 2017 at 26 years old and immediately made an impact. In his first three seasons in the Pacific Northwest, he racked up 57 homers and 172 RBIs while posting a 129 OPS+. He opted out of the 2020 season and had his first 100 RBI season in 2021. But it has been downhill since, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/mariners-news-mitch-hanigers-heartfelt-message-to-seattle-after-signing-with-giants">including a one-year stint with the San Francisco Giants</a> where he only played 61 games.</p><p>With poor numbers and lingering injuries on his resume, the Mariners cut Haniger. They have to pay him $15.5 million this year but the relationship is over. He is now a free agent and can sign anywhere.</p><p>The Mariners <a href="https://x.com/JonHeyman/status/1903895749068231145" rel="noopener">also cut a pitcher</a> on Sunday. Drew Pomeranz has not played in the majors since 2021 but joined the Mariners for spring training. New York Post insider Jon Heyman posted, “Drew Pomeranz has been granted his release by Mariners and is available for teams needing LH reliever. 10 K in 7 2/3 IP this spring. Fastball sat 91-94 with 92.0 avg.”</p><p>Even though the Mariners needed help this offseason, they did not add much. Their trade deadline acquisition Randy Arozarena must step up and help lift the offense to a playoff level. They open the season on March 27 against the Athletics.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

In the top of the fifth inning, Robles was hit on the right hand by an 87.2 mph slider from reliever Gus Varland and was forced to leave the game.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Victor Robles has exited the Mariners' game here at Camelback Ranch after taking an 87.2 mph slider off his right hand/wrist.</p><p>He's immediately examined by head athletic trainer Kyle Torgerson then recedes into the visiting clubhouse. <a href="https://t.co/kRbQqRJ5kJ">pic.twitter.com/kRbQqRJ5kJ</a></p><p>— Daniel Kramer (@DKramer_) <a href="https://twitter.com/DKramer_/status/1903561693340541395?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 22, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Robles was clearly in pain, shaking his hand as he made his way down the third-base line before being examined by head athletic trainer Kyle Torgerson. He exited to the clubhouse soon after and did not return to the game. The Mariners later confirmed that Robles would undergo an X-ray, with additional tests possible depending on the results.</p><p>Manager Dan Wilson <a href="https://x.com/RyanDivish/status/1903581304270287317" rel="noopener">offered a cautiously optimistic update</a> after the game.<br>“They’re going to get it checked out today,” Wilson said. “Hopefully he’s in good shape. But he was frustrated, and as you would be, but we’re just hopeful that it’s going to be OK.”</p><h2><b>Mariners get are hopeful Victor Robles is going to be fine</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Victor-Robles.jpg"><figcaption>Erik Williams-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Robles’ injury is especially concerning given the timing — just days ahead of Opening Day — and his recent injury history. The 27-year-old was hit by 11 pitches last season, with 10 coming after he joined Seattle in June. Several of those plunkings were in the hand or wrist area and caused him to miss time, though he never landed on the injured list.</p><p>Despite the bumps and bruises, Robles was one of the Mariners’ most valuable players down the stretch in 2024. After being released by the Nationals, he signed with Seattle and quickly established himself in an everyday role, eventually earning a two-year, $9.75 million extension in mid-August. In 91 games with the M’s, Robles slashed .328/.393/.467 with an .860 OPS and was worth 3.1 WAR, according to FanGraphs.</p><p>This spring, he had continued that strong form, entering Saturday’s contest with an .836 OPS and three home runs in 53 at-bats. His energy and production have stood out in camp.</p><p>“He brings a lot of life to this ballclub,” Wilson said earlier on Saturday, before the injury scare.</p><p>With Opening Day set for Thursday against the Oakland A’s, the Mariners and their fans will be anxiously awaiting Robles’ test results. He is slated to start in right field and bat leadoff, forming a dynamic outfield trio with Julio Rodríguez and Randy Arozarena. Seattle wraps up Cactus League play with games on Sunday and Monday before heading north. Logan Gilbert is expected to start the opener, but the focus in the meantime will be on whether Robles is healthy enough to join him on the field.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The team revealed two official sleeves, one which uses the official Nintendo Switch 2 logo. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the new jersey sleeves, and why this is pretty important for Nintendo fans awaiting the next big reveal.</p><h2><b>Seattle Mariners &amp; Nintendo Reveal Jersey Sleeve Partnership Ahead of Switch 2 Direct</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Play ball ⚾</p><p>We’re thrilled to share we’re expanding our long-standing relationship with the <a href="https://twitter.com/Mariners?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Mariners</a> and will be featured on their jersey sleeve this season!</p><p>See it for the first time on Opening Day, March 27th! <a href="https://t.co/Lig4Aw4bmf">pic.twitter.com/Lig4Aw4bmf</a></p><p>— Nintendo of America (@NintendoAmerica) <a href="https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1902706809691103249?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 20, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Nintendo has officially become the Seattle Mariners’ first official jersey sleeve partner, as both entities revealed a partnership today. The Mariners revealed two different jersey sleeves. The home jersey contains the standard Nintendo logo, while the away jersey features the logo for the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 Console. We’ll see the Mariners take to the field with the logo on Opening Day, March 27th.</p><p>Mariners’ Center Fielder Julio Rodriguez will serve as brand ambassador. The young superstar makes for a great candidate, as he’s been playing extremely well since entering the league. The 2022 AL Rookie of the Year has also earned two All-Star nods and two silver-slugger awards. Who else would be a better fit to help promote Nintendo’s next biggest product.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Our jerseys are leveling 🆙</p><p>We are excited to expand our long-standing relationship with <a href="https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@NintendoAmerica</a>, with jerseys featuring Nintendo at home and Nintendo Switch 2 on the road. <a href="https://t.co/okPP5QipeE">pic.twitter.com/okPP5QipeE</a></p><p>— Seattle Mariners (@Mariners) <a href="https://twitter.com/Mariners/status/1902725566542774493?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 20, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>“It’s a genuine thrill to be able to partner with such a talented team, including bright stars like Julio [Rodriguez],” said Doug Bowser, President and Chief Operating Officer, Nintendo of America. “Our history with the Mariners goes back decades so this really feels like coming home. Nintendo has a lot of exciting news this year and through collaborations like this one, we can’t wait to create even more smiles across all generations.</p><p>The long-running relationship between the Mariners and Nintendo goes back to the early 90s. In 1992, Nintendo’s President at the time (Hiroshi Yamauchi), purchased the Mariners to prevent the team’s relocation. The team maintained a stake for three years after Yamauchi’s death, but still keeps a strong relationship with the organization.</p><p>In a post from Nintendo, they wrote about the ongoing relationship between them and the Mariners. The post reads: “We’re thrilled to share we’re expanding our long-standing relationship with the Mariners and will be featured on their jersey sleeve this season! See it for the first time on Opening Day, March 27th!”</p><p>It’s actually an excellent idea to use the Switch 2 Logo on the away jersey, too. Overall, that Logo will travel the country, and millions will see it over the course of the season.</p><p>Nintendo revealed the <a href="https://www.nintendo.com/successor/en-us/index.html?srsltid=AfmBOopI0MBPlxwmtdDdNVkua8IXxSCbJh8FoJ3y25-ye1qZ-51fciFf" rel="noopener">Switch 2</a> earlier this year, along with a new Mario Kart title.
