Seattle Mariners End Dan Wilson Era After Historic 2026 Collapse

The Seattle Mariners have officially parted ways with manager Dan Wilson following a disappointing 2026 season. Wilson, who took over in 2024, led the team to the ALCS in 2025 but oversaw a 76-86 record this year, marking the franchise's first losing season since 2019. The organization confirmed Wilson will not return in 2027, though they plan to offer him another role. President of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto acknowledged the team's failure to meet expectations, citing a need for a new direction. The departure follows a season plagued by underperformance from key stars and pitching struggles, despite high expectations entering the year.

The departures of Antonio Conte and Fabio Paratici have left Spurs running parallel recruitment processes for a new head coach and director of football. The longer the search goes on, the more fans are losing faith in the process.
