MARINERS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Smoak Monster sightings in Seattle?
After focusing on the pitching side of the equation recently, we'll turn the focus to offense this week, focusing on guys who fit into one of three buckets:
Turnarounds - Poor April, very good May
Complete Duds - Take the opposite of "Turnarounds"
Surprises - Guys who made a cameo in April (if that), but have got off to a solid start this month
TURNAROUNDS

Jiu-Jitsu proposal is romantic, dangerous
Sports guys never seem to run out of ridiculous ways to propose to their girlfriends. There was Adrien Broner’s fake post-fight proposal, Mariners infielder Brendan Ryan’s magical trip to Japan, the Olympic swimmer who proposed in the swimming pool and about 100,000 guys who thought popping the question at a baseball game would be a fun, new idea.I’ll be honest and say I never...
Are M's headed for a breakthrough?
Catcher Kelly Shoppach said that a number of Mariners were talking on Tuesday, saying that if they had won their four-game series in Cleveland instead of getting swept, they would have been the talk of baseball, not the Indians.
Wishful thinking? Perhaps. But the Mariners arrived in Cleveland as winners of five of their last six series, with their only non-win being a two-game split...

Screengrab Snafu: Mariners win! Wait, what?
It was a pretty rough day in Cleveland for the Mariners, as Seattle blew leads in both the ninth and ten innings. The Mariners ended up losing 10-8 after a three-run walkoff homer by Indians catcher Yan Gomes in the bottom of the tenth. Apparently, nobody told the fine folks at Root Sports Northwest, as they scrubbed Gomes' homer from the record and proclaimed the Mariners 8...
Seattle Mariners swept four straight in Clevleand
The Seattle Mariners don’t play the Cleveland Indians again until July 22nd. After this weekend, that might be too soon.

The red-hot Indians posted a four-game sweep, sending Seattle to 20-25 on the season and 2-5 on a road trip that started promising...
