Hey, if you've read anything on RotoGraphs this year, please take a few minutes to fill out a post-season reader survey. We're always looking for ways to improve our coverage based on the way YOU play fantasy baseball. Do it: fantasy.fangraphs.com/2026-post-se...

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

My dad is an international soccer star! He’s playing in Australia for the over 70 World Cup and was interviewed by this local news channel. www.facebook.com/share/v/18sB...

Football! Catch it!

MLB needs to call an audible and make this Brewers-Padres series best of 7. Just incredible drama and amazing baseball every night.

The Dodgers are the envy of baseball, with superstars throughout their lineup and a rotation of aces. The Braves have several thumpers of their own, a strong defense, and a deep bullpen, not to mention Chris Sale. Is that enough for them to topple the juggernaut? @jakemailhot.com’s NLDS preview:

Take a little walk with the Mariners and @jakemailhot.com through a crucial four-game homestand against the Athletics which the Mariners need to dominate like they're projected to. www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

You’d think these two posts back-to-back in the timeline were related, but they were not! But I did laugh very loudly!

A large portion of our home library is filled with books from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. Some our girls’ favorite books came in the mail from that program. Her songwriting was already legendary, but to me, teaching kids to read and appreciate literature was her lasting legacy.

I definitely did not have “the Mariners have a get-right game against Zack Wheeler” on my 2026 bingo card.

After a weird and wild weekend, the Mariners finish their tour of NL contenders with a three-game set against the red-hot Phillies. Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

The Mariners’ tour of some of the best teams in the NL continues with a weekend series against the Cubs. The big news is Kade Anderson’s debut on Saturday. Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

With a hard-fought series win in Houston in the books, the Mariners head to Milwaukee to face the best team in the majors. Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

The Mariners head to Houston for a critical divisional matchup against the Astros this weekend. It’s a pretty huge make-or-break moment in the race for the AL West. Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

The Mariners' upcoming nine-game road trip feels like a make-or-break point for the team. Perform well in New York and Houston and there could be some hope for a long shot playoff run down the stretch. If not... Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

You can't just be up there and just doin' a balk like that.

The Mariners and Rays meet for a three-game series with the M's desperately needing any kind of good vibes. I'm not worried about this jubilee weekend, are you? Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

I'm imagining deGrom invoked this clause like Michael Scott declared bankruptcy. Chris Young: "Jacob, we've got a deal in place with the Braves." deGrom: "I INVOKE NO TRADES" Young: "Surely we can figure out a move to—" deGrom: "I have invoked my clause."

Mariners using that Castillo money they freed up to get Ward seems like a good deal. Didn't give up much to acquire him and he balances and lengthens the lineup. Good bit of maneuvering from the M's.

The Mariners limp home for their longest homestand of the year. This series against the Twins comes right before Monday’s trade deadline, making this weekend’s games critically important for the M’s. Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

I’ve lived in Bellingham for more than 20 years and I finally saw orcas in the bay tonight. Three juveniles and a mother close to the shore plus two more adults further out in the bay.

The starting lineups from the last time the Mariners won against the Dodgers (L - April 19, 2021) and the last time they won in Dodger Stadium (R - June 28, 2009). Remember some of these guys?

Bad news: the M's face the Dodgers this week. Good news: they face the bad part of LA's rotation. Bad: two of those starters are LHP. Good: uh... Bad: the M's haven't won a game against the Dodgers since 2021. Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

With a week until the trade deadline, here are the @fangraphs.com Power Rankings. 1⃣ MIL (+1) #ThisIsMyCrew 2⃣ LAD (-1) #Dodgers 3⃣ BOS (+6) #DirtyWater 4⃣ TBR #RaysUp 5⃣ ATL (+3) #BravesCountry Riser: ⬆️ ARI (+5) #Dbacks Faller: ⬇️ MIA (-15) #FightinFish Read: blogs.fangraphs.com/fangraphs-po...

It took 10 months, 212 applications, and 33 interviews with 23 different companies, but I finally accepted an offer for a new full-time role! 🎉🥳🎊 I'm so excited to start as the Director of Growth and Marketing for Gritworks Athletics. 💪 gritworksathletics.com

This might be a little bit of hyperbole, but the Mariners’ series against the Rangers this weekend could define the direction of the rest of Seattle’s season. No pressure. Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...

I just realized the Mariners are going to trade for Ty France in the next few weeks to give the bench a right-handed bat they desperately need. He's up to a 142 wRC+ this year and has five home runs in his last six games.

The Mariners face off against the Reds this week. Cincinnati has been the worst team in baseball since the beginning of May, but the M's still need to prove they can take care of business against teams like these. Series preview for @lookoutlanding.bsky.social: www.lookoutlanding.com/seattle-mari...
