The Seattle Mariners have parted ways with manager Dan Wilson, according to sources inside the organization. Wilson told players before Sunday’s season finale against the Angels that he would not return, MLB.com’s Daniel Kramer and The Seattle Times’ Ryan Divish reported.
Seattle followed a deep playoff run in 2025 with a below-.500 season in 2026. The Mariners had been projected as favorites to win the AL West, but Houston took the division and Texas also finished ahead of Seattle.
The offseason brings roster and staff questions. Randy Arozarena and J.P. Crawford are set to become free agents, and the article says Seattle must shore up a bullpen it describes as injured and ineffective. Coaches Pete Woodworth, Trent Blank and Perry Hill have time left on their contracts; front-office leaders Jerry Dipoto and Justin Hollander were scheduled to hold a news conference Monday.
