2018 MLB Season Preview: Seattle Mariners

The Seattle Mariners just keep adding speed and power to a fun offense to watch. Unfortunately, they are in a stacked AL West, so they need to keep adding arms and bats to keep up with the Joneses.

 

Seattle GM Jerry DiPoto has been one of the most active general managers since taking over control in late-2015. He keeps the Mariners in the conversation and has made large trades (Dee Gordon) and small trades that could pay dividends this season (Ryon Healy).

Can Seattle make the playoffs for the first time since 2001?

Here is the 2018 MLB season preview for the Seattle Mariners.

2017 MLB Season Team Preview Seattle Mariners Jean Segura funnyThe Seattle Mariners are one of the favorites in the stacked AL West this year. They will have their hands full with the Rangers and Astros, who both have plenty of power and speed.

DiPoto did the usual ‘new general manager’ things like revamp the bullpen and trade some mid-level players for other mid-level players. He didn’t make any huge moves, but enough to change a lot of faces.

The Mariners haven’t made the postseason since they won 116 games in 2001. Can this team break the long drought or will they be another average Seattle team?

2015 MLB Team Preview: Seattle Mariners

Seattle Mariners 2015 MLB team preview Ryan Macklemore bobblehead shirtless funny weirdThe Mariners were one game away from making the postseason last year. Robinson Cano brought his winning pedigree over from New York. The signing turned out to be one of the best last offseason, even if he did bring a hefty price tag.

The AL West is loaded once again (the Houston Astros actually look like a professional baseball team this season). The Rangers and A’s might not be as strong, but the Angels are all expected to run away with the AL West. Can Seattle take the crown from Los Angeles?

Seattle has turned into quite a sports town. The Seahawks own the city and the Sounders have helped transform the entire U.S. into caring about soccer more than just every four years. Can the Mariners piggyback on the overwhelming rabid Seattle sports fanbase and turn Safeco Field into a strong homefield advantage?

Here is the 2015 MLB season preview for the Seattle Mariners.
