Seahawks Free Agency so far 2026

In recent days with free agency beginning 

they have made a few moves so far 

Ken Walker III was not resigned and

went to the Kansas City Chiefs. He said

in press conference he wasn't happy 

about his playing time during the 2025

season. Of course they had Zach Charbonnett as well before he was hurt during the 

playoffs.  The MVP of the Super Bowl 

I can understand his frustration. The

question to is did they use him right as well.

He should have been used in the passing game a bit more too.

The Seahawks signed Green Bay Packers

running back Emmanuel Wilson. He is big so

likely do Zach work until he is ready. George 

Halini may have the job starting. Seahawks 

may draft a running back in the second draft

More Seahawks news later. Go Hawks!

Mariners End Losing Streak and Zags Go To Portland

The Seattle Mariners ended their

losing streak beating the Cincinnati 

season on Sunday 6-3. George 

Kirby said that the Reds were 

aggressive against him. He went 

four and two-thirds innings giving 

up two runs.

Andre Munoz was back from the 

WBC. He pitched the sixth and 

struck out three. Matt Brash pitch 

two-thirds of an inning and struck 

out two.

Randy Arozarena was back too. He 

batted second. No hits but two walks 

and scored a run.  Brendan Donovan 

had a big day going four for and driving 

in three runs. He could be difference 

this coming season for the Mariners.  

The Mariners big inning was the fifth 

where they scored five runs 

The Mariners won't play on Monday 

and Tuesday they will have split 

squad games. With United States 

and Dominican Republic playing 

Sunday night in the semis they

will have someone back on 

Tuesday. 

In the NCAA tournament Gonzaga 

will be the number three seed in 

the West region and play Kennesaw 

State number 14 on Thursday in 

Portland. I am sure the Zags will 

have a big crowd on hand. Go Zags!

Angels Beat Mariners Saturday

Again the Mariners lost 6-2 this time to

the Angels. Logan Gilbert put in his

tine. He went 2 and 2/3 innings. He 

gave up six hits and two runs. I am sure

he was working on some things. The

importance is getting ready for the 

season.

Come Young is looking good including

a couple hits and has done so the last

week or so. Colt Emerson had a

couple hits too.  Leo Rivas started at

third base. Last season he didn't play

third at all. Most likely he will be the

Mariners utility player so getting some

reps at third is a good idea. We still

not sure how JP Crawford is really

doing. Hard to know whether Colt 

Emerson will start the season in

Seattle or not.

During the season we will give you

the stars of the game and how guys 

are doing.  We are hoping to see 

whether Julio Rodriguez gets off

to a good start. With Cal Raleigh 

now being the franchise player 

and the Mariners signing Josh

Naylor to  a free agent contract 

for five we are hoping that Julio

can be himself. Now at 25 years 

old he is starting to see maturity 

and we hope to see his best season 

coming forward. Looking at his

stats they all look good but most

of what he has done has been after

the all-star break at least offensively.

Julio has been steady playing defense

all the way. We are hoping a good 

season beginning the regular season 

that starts in less than two weeks.

Go M's.

Mariners Lose Friday To Dodgers

Kade Anderson got off to a rough

start in his third start of the spring.

He gave up a three run homer to

former Mariner Teoscar Hernandez.

Kade settled down after that going

three innings and not giving up

another run.

The Mariners actually tied the game

in the second inning. The game was

silent until the sixth inning when the

Dodgers scored six runs. It started

with new Dodger Kyle Tucker hit a

solo home run off of reliever Robinson 

Ortiz who ended up giving up four the

runs without recording an out.

The Mariners scored a single run in

the 7th.  The Dodgers scored their

final run in the top of the 9th.

Colt Emerson hit a three run homer 

in the bottom of the 9th to make it

closer than it really was. 

The Mariners will play the Angels 

Saturday afternoon in their park.

Logan Gilbert will start for the 

Mariners.

The United States beat Canada

7-5 in the WBC.  The Canadians 

did have the tying runs on second

and third in the 7th inning however

United States didn't allow another 

run.

The United States will take on

the Dominican Republic on Sunday. 

Go USA. 

Chicago Cubs Beat Mariners Thursday

The Cubs beat the Mariners 7-4 on

Thursday.  Emerson Hancock went

four innings giving up four hits

and two runs He didn't walk a batter

once again however struck out five. 

Pitcher Josh Simpson gave up three

runs in the 7th to make the difference. 

At this point it doesn't look good

for him as the Mariners don't have many openings in the bullpen. 

Minor league player for the Mariners Colin

Davis had the big hit having a three run 

homer in the 8th. 

The Mariners take on the LA Dodgers 

Friday night in Peoria. The starting 

pitchers are not announced yet 

With Mexico out of WBC we should 

be seeing Andre Munoz and Randy 

Arozarena soon. Munoz pitched the

final inning Wednesday. He should be 

in camp soon but his next outing we

will see.  Go Mariners!

Narrow Loss By Washington Huskies

The Washington Huskies had to make

another comeback to have a chance 

to beat a very good team in Wisconsin.

The odds 8 against them since they 

had only seven healthy players. The

Badgers beat the Huskies 85-82 after

Washington had to come back from

another double digit deficit.

Freshman Hannes Steinbach led the 

Huskies with 25 points and 16 points.

Most likely the Huskies season has

ended. Steinbach was the Huskies 

best player. He was named third team

in  Big Ten and first team freshmen.

Expect Steinbach not to return since

word is he will likely be a lottery pick

in the NBA. We thank him so much.

One of the best freshmen the Huskies 

have. 

Zoom Diallo had 24 points. Both he 

and Steinbach made ten field goals.

Quimari Peterson had 14 points. A

senior he average nine points. Some 

of the season Peterson did a good 

job coming off the bench then injuries 

happened where he became more 

value. The Huskies will have to see

where they can pick up someone

to take his spot. 

Wesley Yates had only six points 

making one out of  six shots. Had

he made two more shots they may 

have won but I wouldn't li that on

him. Yates and Diallo should be

key players next season going in

as juniors. 

Courtland Muldrew a freshman had 

eight points and playing 31 minutes.

He played limited action being in 18

games.  JJ Mandaquit another freshman 

who missed this game played in 22 games

and average 5.2 a game. He started some

games early on in the season.  Both 

these two could be keys to next year's

team as well if they return.

Having more healthy team next year

will be good. Playing in the Big Ten

isn't easy.  Go Dawgs!

Wednesday Mariners Lose To Colorado

The Seattle Mariners lost to the

Colorado Rockies Wednesday 

11-7. 

Luis Castillo started and three

and a third innings. He gave up 

one run on two hits. Matt Bradysde 

his first appearance of the spring 

giving up run. He should be ready 

when the season begins.

Seven of the runs happened when

the Rockies scored off of Casey

Lawrence who likely played for the

Rainier's in Tacoma. He adds depth

in case the Mariners need a starter

or reliever during the season. 

There are others ahead of him but

he could come up for one appearance 

if necessary.

Cole Young was the Mariners player

of the game having three hits include

a home run and driving in three. He

batted 7th  in the order. JP Crawford 

made his second appearance 

at shortstop in the spring where he had

a couple of hits while batting 6th.

Emerson Hancock will start Thursday 

for the Mariners on Thursday. Go M's.
