    How many HRs will Cal hit?

    Although many people think that there is no way Cal can repeat last year's performance, all indications are that it's sustainable. It's not like he had a hot streak, then fell off. He was remarkably consistent throughout the year. After hitting 1 HR in March, these are his totals by month...

    Spring training 2026

    Interesting article in the Athletic about Rob Refsnyder and how he has become more productive as he's gotten older thanks to a change in his approach. Refsnyder has the 7th highest OPS against lefties since 2022, at .924...

    Can't let them both walk

    The great GMs are able to walk that fine line of keeping the right players and not overpaying. Retaining key veterans while keeping the roster young. Signing high value (not high priced) free agents and continuing to hit on the draft. It's a tall order.

    2026 Off-season Injury Updates

    Macdonald addressed this today at the combine. He said it was for medical reasons. They had to wait for his knee to "calm down."

    98 wins, etc.

    Would it be fair to say that you're a real pessimist when it comes to the Mariners? They won 90 games last season, and although I don't think Cal has the same season he had last year, the team is stronger elsewhere.

    Mariners offseason thread 2025-26

    Yes, you're right. It could be Donovan at 2B. I don't think Colt Emerson makes the team, though. With the surplus of outfielders, I can see Dipoto trading one for an infielder. (You heard it here first!)

    Top Seahawk free agents

    Probably because the Seahawks won the Super Bowl, their free agents are over-rated in nfl.com's list of 101 top free agents: https://www.nfl.com/news/top-101-nfl-free-agents-of-2026-who-are-the-best-players-available The Seahawks have three in the top 12 and five listed in the top 40.

    Mariners offseason thread 2025-26

    How do we beat the Rams?

    I live in LA, so I see that there is some panic among the Rams about their situation. There's a feeling that McVay has met his match. And there is a lot of concern about the lack of maturity among some of the players. Jared Verse's comments about how the Rams' players were in shock when the...

    Forgotten rb

    I think that Schneider will make Walker a very good offer. The only thing that will prevent him from being a Seahawk this year is if some crazy team comes in with an unreasonably high offer. And unfortunately, there are at least 10 to 15 poorly run teams that are capable of doing such a thing...

    I asked AI who would buy the Seahawks

    One more thing about Ballmer: he was seen at the Super Bowl cheering for the Seahawks.

    Mike and the Offense.

    My personal opinion (with no facts to back it up) is that the Milroe run plays were Macdonald's idea. Macdonald drafted Milroe and he saw what havoc a running QB could create from his time in Baltimore with Lamar Jackson. Whereas Kubiak is all about the drop back passer. On draft day...

    I asked AI who would buy the Seahawks

    Why do you think Ballmer would be a slap in the face? Ballmer and Allen were close friends for 40 years. It was Allen that got Ballmer to buy the Clippers. I like Ballmer of all the possible candidates for new owner because (1) he is a real sports fan, (2) he still lives in the Seattle area...

    Mike and the Offense.

    There is nothing to suggest Macdonald is ignoring the offense. Macdonald is not only an intelligent guy, he's a bit of a micromanager. Everything points to his deep involvement with every aspect of the team. He clearly did not let Kubiak dictate the offense on his own this past season. Kubiak...

    So I’m That Guy Now.

    It wasn't just Stafford. It's Stafford and McVay. Macdonald's defense shut down Stafford in the first game, but McVay found an answer in the last two games. (And without special teams, the Seahawks probably lose both of them.) Now it's up to Macdonald to counter McVay's moves and find a way to...

    Why Doesn’t It “Feel Real?”

    It's part of being a fan. We have unreasonably high expectations, but we also expect to be disappointed. The last 8-10 years have conditioned us to be disappointed. So when this season happened, all we could think was "Wait, what?" and "What just happened?" and "Where did my misery go? I mean it...

    SPOON………GREAT VIDEO don’t miss.

    Nice video, but I wouldn't say that getting picked #5 overall means that the entire league overlooked you or had their evaluation process wrong.

    Crybaby Rams Proposing Rule Change B/C We Beat Them

    Completely ridiculous, especially since it's unlikely the rule will come into play in a similar situation. But if it does, wouldn't it be funny if the Rams lose because of the rule change?

    JSN @ 40+ million per?

    I agree with you for the most part, but I feel that at a few positions, the top salaries have become so high that I question whether there is value there. Paying wide receivers and edge rushers almost as much as top quarterbacks has the potential of coming back to bite you.

    JSN @ 40+ million per?

    I respectfully disagree. First of all, Jody is still in charge until the team is sold. And it is significant that the proceeds of the sale of the team will benefit Paul Allen's charitable entities and because it's not lining some billionaire's wallet, the need to maximize the sale price just...
