3 hits, 1 run...

That's 5 runs the last 5 games.

And Dan is still the manager why?
Why Mariners are unlikely to fire Dan Wilson despite disappointing season

Whats interesting is they havent extended him. Does he get an extension over the off season? Seems unlikely the way things are going. And theres the U of Minnesota, sounds like a perfect fit to me.
I would think his contract runs through next season so why would they???

Season was close to being over in 2024 when he was hired so really it would have just been a 2 year deal if it expires at the end of this season. Possible but I would think a 3 year deal.

btw How ridiculous is it that every detail of player contracts are ALWAYS reported but FO and manager contracts are always a big secret like they are above that.

Thats a recent policy isnt it? Thats how we knew servais was in his last year. I think in terms of the players its part of the labor agreement?

Almost never know how much managers or FO people make...not sure about the labor agreement deal. Would seem to be a weird thing to include.

Yeah if I recall correctly Scott was fired August 23, 2024 after that 1-8 road trip. That left about 35-40 games left in the season. About how many there are left this year. I like Dan, but I am shocked he is still allowed to manage this team.
