Seattle: Set fire to the rain

⚾️Mariners: The inexcusable comments from now-former CEO and president Kevin Mather have left players, like top prospect Jarred Kelenic (pronounced KELL-NICK), frustrated AF. Apart from the obvious, Mather’s comments also indicated the Mariners organization didn’t call Kelenic up to the major leagues last year to give the club more time in control over his rights.

• In the words of anticipated Opening Day starting pitcher Marco Gonzales, “Sometimes a common goal can unite you, but sometimes a common enemy can do the same, if not greater.” Marco, we certainly don’t think you’re boring.

• We’re backing the players. The Mariners organization, yet again, has a long way to go to earn back our trust.

⚽️OL Reign: Megan Rapinoe was hard at work scoring two goals and making cheeky passes yesterday for the USWNT, but her club team was busy this week too. On Tuesday, OL Reign acquired goalkeeper Karen Bardsley on loan from the FA WSL’s Manchester City. But like Phil Jackson in The Last Dance, Bardsley has a limited time frame to show us her stuff and is only staying in the PNW until June 30th.

• According to head coach Farid Benstiti, another top keeper will join the team after Bardsley’s departure. Could the rumors be true? Could it be 2020 Best FIFA Women’s Goalkeeper Sarah Bouhaddi? *eyes emoji*

🏐Volleyball: Don’t miss the top 10 volleyball matchup between No. 9 UW and No. 7 Utah, starting tonight at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. Look for Ella May Powell — who had a career-high 60 assists last Friday — to keep setting the standard.
