DeLauter’s 10th-inning blast lifts Guardians past Mariners in extras

Chase DeLauter hit his fourth career home run, a go-ahead shot in the 10th inning, to lift the Cleveland Guardians to a 6-5 win over the Seattle Mariners in 10 innings at T-Mobile Park. Seattle forced extras with a ninth-inning RBI single from Julio Rodríguez to make it 3-3, and Luke Raley added a two-run homer in the 10th before Connor Brogdon closed out the win for Cleveland. Mariners starter Bryan Woo worked five scoreless innings before the Guardians pushed across two in the sixth, and DeLauter’s dramatic 10th capped a back-and-forth night in which Cleveland never trailed after the early frames.

Mariners' Opening Day offense fizzles as Guardians pull away

Seattle’s Opening Day offense was stifled, with 14 strikeouts and all runs coming on solo homers (Donovan and Canzone) as Cleveland answered with timely hits and its bullpen, ultimately holding Seattle to six runs allowed. Logan Gilbert labored and the Guardians’ bats produced key knocks, including a Rocchio two-run double and a Ramirez double, while Dominic Canzone added a second homer to briefly spark a Mariners rally before a 6-4 Guardians win. Bibee left early with right shoulder inflammation, underscoring a rough night for Seattle all around.

Mariners Shuffle: Crawford to IL, Garver Joins Roster as Knizner Elects Free Agency

Seattle placed J.P. Crawford on the 10-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation (retroactive to March 22), opening a 40-man spot that was filled by Mitch Garver. Andrew Knizner cleared waivers and elected free agency, leaving a 40-man vacancy and freeing Seattle from his $1 million salary for the year if he signs elsewhere (the new team would owe him prorated minimum, with Seattle still responsible for the remaining balance if he stays with another club). Crawford is expected back in a few weeks, likely with Leo Rivas stepping in at shortstop and Ryan Bliss contributing. Knizner, signed as Raleigh’s likely backup, struggled in spring, while Garver provides added catching depth after a delayed signing.}

Mariners roll out 2026 Opening Day roster, injuries test depth

Seattle unveiled its 2026 Opening Day roster, with injuries to J.P. Crawford and Bryce Miller opening spots for depth pieces, and Miles Mastrobuoni also out to start the season. Garver won the catcher job over Knizner and Pareda. Infielders Bliss, Naylor, Rivas, and Young bolster the infield until Crawford returns; Donovan, Raley, and Refsnyder provide versatile bench options. The outfield remains anchored by Arozarena, Canzone, Robles, and Rodríguez. The rotation includes Gilbert, Kirby, Woo, Castillo, and Hancock, with Miller expected back soon. The bullpen features Bazardo, Brash, Criswell, Ferrer, Legumina, Muñoz, Speier, and Vargas, including the new arms Ferrer and Criswell.”,

Mariners reassign top infield prospect Colt Emerson to minor league camp

Mariners reassign top infield prospect Colt Emerson to minor league camp, effectively ending his bid for Opening Day; he impressed in spring with a 111 wRC+ and 2 homers, but Seattle will rely on Brendan Donovan, J.P. Crawford (if ready), and likely Leo Rivas for infield depth, sending Emerson back to Tacoma for more seasoning.

Sloan Shines as Mariners Prospects Fall 7-3 in Spring Breakout

Mariners' Spring Breakout prospects lost 7-3 to Brewers' top farm system. Pitcher Ryan Sloan starred with a spotless first inning and a dominant fastball, signaling rising hype, while Lazaro Montes went 3-for-3 with two RBIs and Yorger Bautista delivered a triple and a late homer. The Mariners' offense squandered chances aside from Montes, and the pitching staff struggled after Sloan, notably Kade Anderson, who walked seven and allowed a key three-run homer in the sixth. Defensive highlight came from Felnin Celesten at short.

WBC Handshake Moment Sparks Debate Between Arozarena and Raleigh

In a World Baseball Classic pool game in Houston, Randy Arozarena attempted a handshake with Seattle catcher Cal Raleigh, who didn’t reciprocate, prompting questions about a possible feud. Arozarena later vented in Spanish with profanity toward Raleigh, though it’s unclear if the jab was serious or banter. The moment echoes a 2023 WBC snub involving Will Smith, and a Mexico–USA rematch could still occur with both players’ teams advancing and Raleigh heading to spring training if they move on.

MLBTR host Steve Adams runs a live chat dissecting the Donovan-to-Mariners trade, noting the Cardinals’ haul—Cijntje, Tai Peete, Colton Ledbetter plus two future draft picks—and Seattle’s fit at 2B/3B with room to maneuver.

Mariners Close In on Brendan Donovan Deal in 3-Team Trade

Seattle is near a deal to land Brendan Donovan from the Cardinals in a likely three-team swap that would also involve the Rays, who are set to receive Mariners infielder Ben Williamson. Donovan is a versatile, contact‑hitting infielder/outfielder (career line of .282/.361/.411 with a 119 wRC+) on a modest $5.8M salary for 2026, making him a fit for Seattle’s lineup as the Cardinals push a rebuild.

Mariners DFA Kowar to Clear Room for Pereda’s Catching Depth

Seattle designated reliever Jackson Kowar for assignment to open a 40-man roster spot for catcher Jhonny Pereda, who was acquired from Minnesota for cash considerations. Kowar, a 29-year-old former Royals first-round pick, has struggled in the majors (roughly 8.21 ERA in 91 MLB innings) and is out of options after a injury‑plagued Mariners stint that included Tommy John surgery and a shoulder impingement. Pereda, a well-traveled depth catcher with strong minor-league numbers and solid defense, provides catching depth behind Cal Raleigh, with Andrew Knizner signed to back him up and a Triple-A option available. The move comes as Seattle reshuffles the roster following the trade that sent Harry Ford away and reduced other catching options on the 40-man roster.
