FOR HUMPY! 😭

The Mariner Moose lifts Humpy the Salmon up in celebration after Humpy won the Salmon Run for the first time ever. Mariners fans can be seen going wild in the background.

There was another playoff game last night and I had the recap. Matt Boyd's Bat Void returned, Ian Happ should've had 9 RBI, and the Cubs have, against all expectations, forced a Game 5

repost this if an editor has ever saved you from yourself

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

elsewhere in the seattle mariners extended universe a fan is eating small amounts of dirt he collected from the t-mobile infield every day because he wanted to change the vibes after game 1 and since it worked he’s trapped eating dirt every day

Links to the projected payroll pages will still default to 2025 for now but you can click on 2026 to look ahead.

If you have a question(s), here's a reminder that you can just ask me or Jon here or via email ([email protected]). A lot of info on the page. We're always happy to explain.

it's a goblin job for goblin Meg, please don't make me do my hair before I try to spring "it's been a while" on Ben

I truly don’t get the appeal of podcasts having to be video now. Podcasts are at their very best when you’re doing something else, working out or playing videogames etc, and no good podcaster has ever been someone who should be shown on screen that’s just not how that works. It’s a goblin job.
