Seattle Mariners

Every year I play as the Mariners. I don't make changes the first year , and rebuild in year 2.

In my first test year, the M's won 97 games. Anyone else seeing this in their leagues? Or was this just an anomaly?

Last year, the Orioles made the playoffs. Flukes happen.

Mariners came second in the AL West in 2013 in my game, and won it in 2014. I traded Volquez and Street to the Angels the first year so I guess they made the difference (both were All Stars)

the Mariners are a good team this year, discount them at your own peril.

We definitely have potential. If all goes well we can be tough. It all hinges on Ackley, Montero and the rotation once you get past Felix and Iwakuma.

I kept the squad virtually untouched first season and reached the play-offs, second season I traded a lot and finished second but lost out by 1 game in the Wildcard, third season (where I am now) World Series.

This is the first time I have ever played this game but loving it even if I am learning by mistakes.

They're a .441 team that's over twenty games out. Peril me up, I discount them utterly.

Now the A's, there's a good team.

Fear my M's!

And the real life M's would get you a 32.
