Seattle Mariners 2013 Future odds & MLB betting preview

March 23, 2013 By
Dustin Ackley

NWSB Insider and Seattle Mariners’ blogger Dave B talks about the likelihood of the Mariners winning the AL West, becoming American League Champions, and winning the World Series. While Seattle has more than enough young talent in their farm system to make their future look very bright, their everyday lineup just doesn’t have the power to really make a statement in the AL West yet. With the Angels and Rangers both stocked up as well, Dave tells you not to count on the Mariners winning the west just yet.

If Tom Wilhelmsen fades in second year with the Mariners…

March 21, 2013 By
Tom Wilhelmsen

NWSB Insider and Seattle Mariners’ blogger Jeff Budke talks about a situation that not many Seattle fans are hoping plays out–that of Tom Wilhelmsen going down the same path as Brandon League. However, should that happen, Mariners’ fans can feel rest assured that Seattle has the talent to at least get them through the season, especially with the arms of Carter Capps and Stephen Pryor on the roster.

*My* five best Seattle Mariners Ken Griffey Jr. memories

March 19, 2013 By
Griffey carried out

NWSB insider and Seattle Mariners blogger Brandon Choate brings us a nostalgic list of epic proportions. Just like many Seattle Mariner fans, Ken Griffey Jr. is an icon. Over his many years in Seattle, Griffey Jr wowed and dazzled not only Seattle, but the whole nation. Between his 8 straight home runs in 1993 or his home run derby blast in Camden Yards, you can’t help but love the kid!

The M’s Carlos Peguero is doing well enough to be annoying

NWSB Insider and Seattle Mariners’ blogger Danny Ferguson talks about how Carlos Peguero has been just good enough to annoy him during Spring Training. The truth of the matter is that Peguero is surprising me, not because of how strong or likable he is. I know that he has a great swing and a lot of power. I would expect him to hit the ball into the stratosphere, so that’s not a surprise. The surprising thing is his strike-out rate.

Half a year later the Mariners are beyond Ichiro…right?

March 7, 2013 By
Ichiro

NWSB Insider and Seattle Mariners’ blogger Danny Ferguson talks about life without Ichiro as the Mariners look towards their first full season without the star. And while Ichiro was a franchise player during his time with the Seattle Mariners and will continue to produce for the Yankees, his departure from Seattle isn’t all that bad.

Mariners 10-game Catcus League winning streak snapped

March 6, 2013 By
Blake Beavan

NWSB Editor and Insider Chris Anderson talks about Seattle’s 10-game winning streak being snapped by the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday.Though it is still very early on in spring training, there were many positives to take away from not only this game, but also from the winning streak. That being said, the Mariners–and especially Blake Beavan–do have some areas to improve in before they are truly ready for the regular season.

Here’s what I need to see out of Eric Wedge in 2013

March 6, 2013 By
Get mad Eric Wedge! We Are!

NWSB Insider and Seattle Mariners blogger Danny Ferguson tells us the things he needs to see most from the M’s this year, in a letter to skipper Eric Wedge. Not only does he want to see the Big 3 advance to the MLB roster, he also wants to see Justin Smoak become the player he was promised to be. But on top of everything, he wants Eric Wedge to take some accountability and show some emotion to us fans. It is us who is the reason that he has his job in the first place.

Raul Ibanez love ‘em & hate ‘em… Mariners style

March 6, 2013 By
Raul Ibanez

NWSB Insider and Seattle Mariners’ blogger Jeff Budke talks about the pros and cons about Raul Ibanez coming back to Seattle. While he may be seen as a little arrogant as time and will surely take at-bats away from other players throughout the year, his upsides seem to outweigh his costs. Ibanez, contrary to what the Mariners thought was going to happen, has actually gained power in the past few years and will be a valuable piece in the Seattle lineup.

Players like Jason Bay, Justin Smoak, and Kendrys Morales are all trying to prove that they belong in the starting lineup come opening day.
