Friday Nov 11, 2022
Friday Nov 11, 2022
In honor of the greatest right handed DH of all time, it's episode eleven on 11/11. We'll cover some of the latest news and awards of the offseason and the Marinerd's wish list of players to join Seattle's quest for a championship. Aaron Judge and Trea Turner? Brandon Nimmo and Xander Bogaerts? How about a trade for Bryan Reynolds or Ketel Marte? The possibilities are endless.

ROTM Episode 010: The Return Of The Marinerd
Sunday Oct 23, 2022
Sunday Oct 23, 2022
It's been a long time! Almost as long as the 18 inning ALDS game 3 marathon... Regardless, DH the Marinerd is back with a recap of the Mariners season that was and the overall postseason experience in Seattle. Revenge will look and sound a little different going forward, but no more screwing around because I am here for the long haul. 17 weeks until pitchers and catchers report.

ROTM Episode 009: On The Road Again
Tuesday Apr 12, 2022
Tuesday Apr 12, 2022
The Mariners leave Minnesota with a series split as they head into Chicago for a three game set against the White Sox. This will be a tough stretch of games against last season division winners, but a good way to gauge how the team will fare against top notch talent in the American League.
The Mariners are the good guys in this one, and the Marinerd wouldn't be surpised if it ended in a series sweep against the bad guys. Just saying...

ROTM Episode 008: Opening Day 2022
Friday Apr 08, 2022
Friday Apr 08, 2022
The day has finally arrived for the Mariners to officially begin the march towards playoff baseball in Seattle! This team is after much more than just playoff baseball. They're going for the crown and it will be fun to watch all season long. Although I'm disappointed that I was not able to personally witness the beginning on March 31st at T-Mobile Park, I am happy nonetheless that it starts today in Minnesota.
I recap my trip to Seattle in this episode and discuss the opening series against the Twinkies. M's must go for at least a series split on the road before tough matchups in Chicago for a 3 game set and at home for another 3 against Houston. The clock is ticking, so let's get that revenge!

2021 is in the rearview and 2022 is upon us. Shout out to Daniel from All Angels Podcast for having me on their podcast to discuss the Mariners. In this episode, I breakdown how the Mariners will fare this year as they march towards accomplishing what no Mariners team has done before.

ROTM Episode 006: Ya Man Robbie Man
Monday Dec 06, 2021
Monday Dec 06, 2021
It is my pleasure to introduce you to Ya Man Robbie Man, pimping- I mean promoting the game of baseball as Commissioner. Fun times do not wait ahead as Major League Baseball is now officially in a player lockout. So what now?
The Mariners made a huge free agent signing beforehand so at least there's some hope that reinforcements in the form of the reigning AL Cy Young award winner are at the ready when the season restarts. When that will be exactly is anyone's guess. I have mine and I can only hope that the Mariners' revenge won't be delayed in 2022.
DISCLAIMER!!! Not the real Rob Manfred in this episode. And probably ever.

ROTM Episode 005: Marinerd Reactions
Monday Nov 29, 2021
Monday Nov 29, 2021
The Hot Stove is lit and the Mariners appear to be right in the middle of the action. Before I get into any of that, I give my take on some of the latest news to hit Mariner Nation, such as the AL Manager of the Year robbery, Ichiro's induction into the Mariners Hall of Fame, and Alex Rodriguez's debut on the Baseball Hall of Fame ballot.
The last half of this episode is dedicated to some trade activity with the San Diego Padres and the action on the Hot Stove. Don't you think it wants to be known as the Beautiful and Intelligent Stove for once?

ROTM Episode 004: The Time Is Now O‘Clock
Wednesday Nov 24, 2021
Wednesday Nov 24, 2021
The offseason is in full swing and the window of opportunity is open for the Mariners. For Jerry DiPoto, this must feel like a must-win situation in the sense that he must "win" the offseason. Does that mean breaking the bank for every superstar you can find? Not exactly. Jerry's shopping list requires flexibility and maybe even visiting the dollar store, but a solution can be reached if approached with a must win mentality.
The pieces are in place to carry the M's but they are going to need some help if they are going to go all the way. This episode will cover what the organization will need to do in order to field a consistent contender. If I were to have my way and get these guys, there would be no stopping the Mariners in 2022 and beyond.

ROTM Episode 003: The Process Part Deux
Monday Nov 22, 2021
Monday Nov 22, 2021
Back in 1987, the Mariners were putting the pieces together that would eventually open a nine-year window of opportunity to bring a world championship to Seattle. That window would open in 1995 with many of those core pieces assembled in the eight years prior in an era I call "The Process". Griffey, Edgar, Buhner, Randy, Dan, and Tino would all join the Mariners at various points from 87-94 and be parts of teams that gave Seattle its best shot at winning it all until 2003.
Fast forward to 2021 and that window appears to have unlatched. The winds of Refuse To Lose lore can be felt swirling around the town as a new young squad of Mariners are being assembled to bring hope for a new era, yet also a rebirth of a familiar one. Could this be The Process Redux that completes the puzzle and ends the disrespect?

ROTM Episode 002: The History of Seattle Baseball (Part 2)
Sunday Nov 21, 2021
Sunday Nov 21, 2021
The Mariners are born in 1977 to a city hoping for consistency. The Pilots were one hitter quitters but this team will be different. Episode 2 covers the early years of Mariner baseball all the way up until 2018 when the rebuild begins. Have a listen as we set the stage for what I like to call The Process Part Deux
