Mariners 2024
Seattle Mariners have begun their 47th season in hopes of making it into the playoffs once again. Dave Niehaus always had a positive attitude that this year was the year! Last season the Mariners came up short winning 88 games and finishing 2 games out of the race. Every year changes are made, some of our favorite players get traded and new players come to take their place but that’s baseball. The Mariners have one of the best pitching staffs especially the starting rotation. Can we avoid striking out so much?
Some of the big names that will be missed are players like: Marco Gonzales, Robbie Ray, Eugenio Suarez, Teoscar Hernandez, and Jarred Kelenic. Some of these players will shine on other teams and that’s how it goes. We must wish them the best!
Welcome home Mitch Haniger who was a player we considered a star who just needs to stay healthy. We have a solid 2nd baseman in Jorge Polanco that has 112 career home runs and has been an All-Star. We will finally have a full-time designated hitter in Mitch Garver. Also keep an eye on hard-throwing reliever Gregory Santos. Santos is just 24 years old and has the potential to be a shutdown late inning star.
Seattle has one of the most beautiful ballparks in the country and a loyal fanbase to root on the boys of summer! Make plans soon to attend a game or two this season and Go Mariners!
