  2020 - Seattle's streak of having good seasons with winning records in even    
  numbered years was stopped at three in '20 as they finished a poor 27-33. Outfield:  
  But Seattle has bounced back and had back to back ninety win seasons in Julio Rodriguez (11.52) -  34  
  21 and '22. Mitch Haniger (4.42) -  12  
    Jarred Kelenic (0.02) -  7  
  □   Current ownership group led by John Stanton and Jeff Smulyan has owned Sam Haggerty (2.13) -   4  
  the club since '16.  Ownership has stuck by GM Jerry DiPoto and manager Jake Fraley (1.61) -  4  
  Scott Servais thru some growing pains, but has been rewarded for it's patience. Jesse Winker (-0.25) -  4  
  Sort of a middle pockets ownership team. It looks like they'll spend when they're Teoscar Hernandez (2.1) - 4  
  ready to pounce on talent that will get them to the next level and the     
  management team they've put in place is starting to produce results. Notable Events:  
    2024 - Seattle will contend for a playoff spot this year   
  □   Seattle hired Jerry DiPoto on as GM in '15. He was retained after the John    
  Stanton led ownership group took control of the club in '16. DiPoto took a minute 2024 - The Mariners were carried by their pitching in '23 giving up 89 runs  
  to bring success to the Mariners, but two consecutive 90 win seasons  less than the league average. The hitting was just about league average.

  have finished at 91-71 and made the post season. A shaky bullpen was a  Pitchers:  
  big culprit in the discrepancy as they were losing the close ones.   Seattle had a nice core of three starters last year. A couple of home grown  
  Seattle's runs scored are around league average. It's the pitching that  high draft picks have done really well in Logan Gilbert and George Kirby.  
  makes the Mariners contenders for the post season each year. Luis Castillo, who has had an up and down career was up last year.  
    The Mariners have lots of decent candidates to fill out the last two   
    spots led by another former high draft pick rookie Emerson Hancock and  
    a rookie last year who pitched well in Bryce Miller. It was a mystery at the  
    time and still remains a mystery as to why Jerry DiPoto traded away closer  
    Paul Sewald to Arizona. Ironically, that move may have cost Seattle a post  
    season spot while cementing Arizona's post season spot. Andres Munoz  
    took over the closer role last year and did well. He will close this year.
