Sports Commentary

The World Cup match in Seattle, now featuring Egypt and Iran on June 26, had been designated the "Pride Match" to kickoff Pride Weekend and unite the soccer and LGBTQ+ communities.

The last two weeks have proven the Seahawks have the potential to win it all. The vibes are familiar to when the team won the Super Bowl in 2013.

The Mariners are 25-14 against the Astros since the start of 2023. And with a divisional title, you can say Seattle finally has their number.

The Sounders went from a mostly-barren trophy case when a 22-year-old Messi came to Seattle in 2009 to one that includes four U.S. Open Cups, two MLS Cups, a CONCACAF Champions Cup and now a Leagues Cup. This organization has come a long way in 16 years.

By acquiring the top offensive target at the trade deadline, Geno Suarez, along with Josh Naylor, the Mariners finally did something fans have been asking the organization to do for years - take a big swing and go for it all.

Cal Raleigh is on pace for 66 home runs this season, where can become just the second non-Steroid Era player to break Roger Maris's mark of 61 HRs.

The chances of the Sounders FC hosting some of the world's best teams in the FIFA Club World Cup again are somewhere between slim and none. But they get that opportunity this month.

Danny Musovski has scored a goal in five straight matches, tying a single-season franchise record, during the team's five-match unbeaten streak.

If I’m the Storm, I’d approach Dallas, who holds the top overall pick, and I’d offer the Farm to get her – this year’s 2nd overall pick, both of next year’s first-round picks - even a player if that’s what it takes.

Here we are in early April with storylines that are all too familiar: The M's struggling to win, the Seahawks without a competent OL, the Sounders with a slow start and the Kraken out of the playoff race.

When it comes to preseason projections from oddsmakers in Vegas, the M’s could be beneficiaries of significantly more parity within their own division and the American League this season in their quest to get back to the postseason.

John Schneider now has a ton of salary cap space, five picks in the first three rounds of this year’s draft, but not much of an offense. It’s as blank a canvas as he’s ever going to get.

We’ve seen the frustration from just about every Mariners podcast, even national writers and former Mariners players have shaken their collective heads this offseason. In terms of perception, the M's have done nothing to inspire confidence about their chances.

The Kraken have lost ten of 13 games and now have a 2.2% chance to make the playoffs. With Leiweke on the most recent roadtrip, could a GM change be coming?
