Last year, it was Itro. This year, the king.
Felix Hernandez is heading to the Mariners Hall of Fame this August.
We'll offer our thoughts on that, plus the addition of Stephen Vogue to the coaching staff
and a really interesting minor league signing by Seattle here on the Locked On Mariners podcast.

On the show today, we'll give you our thoughts on Felix Hernandez, joining the Mariners Hall of Fame, Woo.
The Mariners finalized coaching staff and Colin Moran.
signing a minor league deal with the team, which we actually think is pretty interesting.
I'm going to tell you why a little later on in the show.
But first, Colby, the big news coming out of Seattle this morning.
The Mariners officially announced Felix Hernandez weekend at T-Mobile Park,
August 11th through the 13th when the Mariners take on the Baltimore Orioles.
Felix Hernandez will become the 11th member of the Mariners Hall of Fame,
officially being inducted on August 12th.
There will also be some events happening around the ballpark on the 11th.
11th and 13th as well.
And, you know, this doesn't really come as much of a surprise.
I mean, this is a no-brainer to put Felix in the Mariners Hall of Fame, of course.
Maybe a little bit quicker than, you know, some would think considering the fact that it's
been about a little under three and a half years since he last pitched in a Mariners uniform,
but nonetheless a well-deserved honor for one of the greatest players of Mariners history,
arguably the greatest pitcher in Mariners history.
And of course, we recently saw Felix at, uh,
game three of the ALDS when he threw out the first pitch.
So it seems like the relationship between organization and player,
which of course did not end on the greatest of terms,
has at least been mended enough here for the two sides to come together
to celebrate one of the more storied careers in Mariners history.
So Colby, your reaction to Felix getting into the Mariners Hall of Fame.
Has it been mended or is Felix just love to be the center of attention?
No.
I'm not going to be that guy.
Not today.
Obviously, this is a huge honor.
Well, I don't know about a huge honor, but it's a cool honor for Felix.
It's well-deserved, as you mentioned.
He's the best, he had the best career in Seattle.
We can debate whether or not he's the best pitcher who's ever pitched for the Mariners.
It's either him or Randy.
But, yeah, obviously it's well-deserved.
You know, we're a couple years away from Felix starting his Hall of Fame candidacy,
which I expect the organization to get behind fully.
It's probably going to take a while to get him there, too,
just unfortunately because of how quick his career came to an end.
But yeah, this is kind of the first step in that process.
It was cool to see him at game three.
Hopefully he doesn't punk out and do the like half-hearted first pitch attempt on his Hall of Fame induction night like he did.
In game three, that was soft, Felix.
That was real soft.
I'm assuming you had an injury because I always thought you were a competitor and that was just like giving up.
So I'm going to assume you'd hurt your shoulder golfing or something like that.
But you'll fix it.
We'll talk.
We'll talk later.
But in all seriousness, it's a, it's a big deal.
You know, and it's actually right on the same timeline as most of the Mariners'
Hall of Fame inductions.
It's typically three years after you retire, essentially.
And as we know, Felix didn't officially retire.
The league retired him, but either way, it's been three years since he pitched in the big leagues.
This is right online.
My guess is that one of the big announcements during the weekend will be plans for a statue.
I would assume that's going to happen.
And, you know, obviously there's pretty semi-famous pose you guys might be familiar with.
That's pretty easy to put in statue form.
So I suspect we'll get that announcement during that time.
And it's always fun.
The Mariners do a really good job with this type of thing.
If they cut off John Stanton's talks for five minutes, things will off great.
And, yeah, it'll be interesting to see, you know, obviously the reaction is going to be amazing.
We know we'll see if they do a King's Court.
I would imagine they would.
I would think it would be a Supreme Court.
They get the entire stadium going on it.
And it's just going to be really fun because Felix,
for as as critical of him as I was the last few years,
he was, you know, doing his own thing.
He is, you know, one of the most beloved players in franchise history.
And it's a big deal when you invite these guys back and,
you know, allow the fans to give a proper goodbye because, you know,
he got one right after his last start with Seattle,
but there was still,
it wasn't like that was his last start.
We didn't think it was going to be his last start
in Major League Baseball, right?
Turns out it was.
So, yeah, it's nice to kind of have that moment again,
say thank you and, you know, kind of kickstart Felix's
Major League Baseball Hall of Fame,
candidacy with this fun little ceremony.
So who do you think is going to be there?
Obviously, they got to have Adrian Beltray there.
I was going to say, I was about to ask you.
All right.
Who's more likely to be there?
Okay.
Adrian Beltray or Kyle Seeger?
Adrian Beltray, I think.
Right?
Right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, yeah.
I think it's a no-brainer that Adrian's going to be there.
Maybe Seegs will be there.
I would think that Seag's would be there.
Yeah, he should be there.
Yeah.
I would look unfavorably upon Seeger if he didn't show up for this.
Yeah.
Unless he was just not invited, right?
Yeah.
Which is not going to happen.
You know, if Seeger doesn't show up, it's going to be because he didn't want to
or because he has some kind of family obligation, and that's understandable.
But, yeah, it's obviously, you know, most of the other Mariners Hall of Famers will show up there.
But how many teammates show up for Felix?
You know, is Robinson Canoe going to show up?
Maybe, like, it'd be interesting to see how fans react to Canoe.
I don't dislike Robbie, so, like, I'd be fine with it.
Is Nelson Cruz going to be?
be playing can he show up like it'll be interesting to see who shows up to this thing but yeah i would
be i'd be borderline shocked if adrian beltray wasn't present and that would just that would be
amazing yeah um incredible because i love adrian like i he's he's so awesome and so yeah uh and his
thing with felix is one of the you know funest things about the 20 like 2009 to 2000 19
mariners like like they're a little rivalry so uh yeah i suspect he's there
Yeah, yeah, I have to assume that he's going to be there.
And hopefully some of Felix's other noteworthy teammates are at least going to be present as well.
How many noteworthy teammates did he have, though?
Kyle Seeger.
End of lists.
I'm just joking.
Kyle Segar, Nelson Cruz, Robinson Canoe.
That's pretty much it.
It was a rough era.
Yeah.
I mean, like, maybe like, I mean, like, Kuma is a part of, is Kuma still a part of the organization?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, so he would probably be there.
um get cliffly there
yeah they re-show that commercial of uh felix name and off they got the famous people
with two names uh two first names yeah bob dillon elton john yeah there we
get elton john you know get him to perform yeah why not yeah let's see it um obviously kit harrington
will throw out the first pitch in king of the north um so i don't want
don't want
All right
So
Stat statue
Game of Thrones things
Locked on Game of Thrones
Let's make it happen
Let's make it happen
I'm down
I'm totally down
You listen to David Locke
We want we want locked on
Game of Thrones
Let's make it happen
All right
We got to get a statue
Obviously you talked about that
There's obviously the you know
The pose
The perfect game pose
So got to make that happen
I would assume that's
That's going to get announced
Like you said
And then Jersey retirement
got to make that happen short order as well.
I think that'll probably be.
That's going to be a different ceremony, but that needs to happen soon.
Sooner rather than later, I think.
I think it's probably going to be closer to seven, eight, nine, ten years from now, to be honest with you.
That's just kind of their motto.
They don't retire jerseys until you're in the Hall of Fame.
And then Edgar was the exception because after the ninth year, it was largely assumed he was going to get in anyways.
So, yeah.
We'll see. I'm certainly not opposed to it, obviously.
They could do it tomorrow and I wouldn't care.
It's not like I, I'm very liberal with like the Jersey retirement.
It's like yeah, absolutely.
And like go ahead.
Retire J. Buna, retire Lupin.
I don't care.
Go ahead and retire those guys.
They deserve it.
Why not?
And I'm even like more liberal when it comes to the Hall of Fame.
Like the fact that Mike Cameron is not in the team Hall of Fame is a travesty.
That is right up there with, yeah, I'm not going to finish that sentence.
But yeah, Mike Cameron should be there.
you know, Nelson Cruz should get in when he retires, I think.
And then obviously, and I think next year actually lines up.
No, not next year.
The year after will be Kyle Seeger's turn.
So, yeah, a lot's happening with the Mariners off the field in terms of
retirements and stuff like that.
So, yeah, but this one will be fun.
I think this one will be much more jovial than the one we see for Kyle Seeger in a couple
years.
I'll put it like that.
I think this is going to be great and a lot of tears are going to be shed and all that.
It's going to be a very emotional weekend, just like the Eitra weekend was as well.
The Mariners are playing all the hits, though, the last couple of years here with the Hall of Fame.
The Mariners do two things very, very well.
Opening day and these Hall of Fame weekend things.
They're great at those.
They're going to knock it out of the park.
They got a lot going on at the ballpark this calendar year.
They got the All-Star game and the, you know, everything that goes along with that with the Derby and the Futures game and the Swingman Classic and all that.
And then they got the the Winter Classic for NHL and in January as well.
So a lot going on at T-Mobile Park.
Rest and peace outfield.
They'll have time.
They'll have time.
And I believe in the T-Mobile Park grounds crew.
I believe in them.
I believe in you guys.
I don't.
All right.
Of course you don't.
The Mariners finalized their coaching staff yesterday.
And there's a pretty surprising name on it who has a legitimate role on this coaching staff as well.
So we'll talk about that.
We'll also talk about the Mariners newest or latest minor league signing who we think is pretty interesting here in just a moment.

Thank you so much for making us your first listen.
So the Mariners finalized their coaching staff yesterday and made the announcement on Twitter
and all the social media platforms and whatnot.
and no real changes really everyone's coming back for the most part
Chris Negron Maniacta they're all coming back everyone's coming back from last year
however there's a new addition to the staff and that is recently retired
ace catcher Stephen Vote who's going to be the quality control coach and
bullpen coach for the Mariners and Trent Blank who served as the bullpen coach
last year is going to be moving into the dugout.
He's just listed as a major league coach.
And I think he's also the director of pitching strategy or something like that as well.
So, yeah.
So the reason that I wanted to bring this up, though, is the is vote.
Because this kind of came out of nowhere.
Voked, of course, though, lives in Olympia.
That's where he makes his home.
So it does make sense for him to stay in the Pacific Northwest.
us.
Angie Mintink of Root Sports on Twitter said that she was trying to actually convince him to join
the Mariners broadcast, but instead he got a job on the Mariners coaching staff.
And it's not often that you see a guy that just retired just a few months ago,
join a major league coaching staff.
Usually it's, you know, you got to go into the minors and work your way up,
especially with a role like this, bullpen coach.
That's a huge role for Voked.
And as a former catcher, I think he's going to bring a really unique perspective to that role as well.
do you think about adding Stephen vote to the coaching staff?
Yeah, you know, first and foremost, highly respected as a player.
It's very, you couldn't really find anybody to say a bad word about the guy.
The fact that he retired and then coached without like a year break in between,
pretty much tells me that the only team he would consider doing that for would be Seattle
because, as you mentioned, his family is in Olympia, so they don't have to move or anything
like that.
So yeah, I also think there's a certain element to this of like, hey, you know, we have this really young catcher who we think might be a superstar in the making, Cal Raleigh.
Would it help to have a guy like Stephen Foke who's been there, done that helped have him around at all and actually still working with Cal even as a bullpen coach?
Yeah, I think that's part of it as well.
But yeah, the one thing about the Mariners front office and coaching staff is that it's an extremely collaborative effort, right?
It's not the hitting coaches aren't just like, yeah, you guys are the only ones who talk about hitting and you do whatever you want with that.
It's a collaborative effort, right?
So Blank will work with Woodworth, who will work with who will work with Voked and they're all getting information from their analytics guys.
And it's a very collaborative effort, both in terms of team building and, you know, team deployment and stuff like that.
So if you're worried about like, hey, Voked is is a catcher.
What does you know about pitching?
Well, a lot.
But if you're worried about that type of thing, you know, that that is pretty, that's really not going to be a thing.
Because I think we all know this, but I'll just say it just in case.
Stephen Vogt isn't making any decisions about like who's coming out of the bullpen.
Like we all know that, right?
Like that's Scott's job.
And that's, again, still a collaborative effort.
That's long been decided, you know, based on analytics and based on what the pitching coaches are telling him.
So, yeah, so vote, like, there's an inexperienced bullpen coach.
That doesn't mean anything.
Like, it's fine.
There are professionals out there.
They'll figure it out.
And vote catching how many thousands of pitchers and tens of thousands of pitches,
he has an understanding of, you know, what can happen or what could be fixed or what can be tweaked or changed to help a pitcher.
So if you're worried about, like, an offensive player being essentially a pitching coach,
don't. Voked is a smart guy. He's well respected.
And anything that he might come up short on, the Mariners have two viable pitching coaches and strategists sitting in their dugout to help kind of fill in the gaps and a strong analytics department.
So, yeah, there's no concern about like that type of issue arising.
And I think there's an advantage to being freshly removed from playing, you know, and for a guy that is a catcher, I mean, like, you're, you know, a catcher.
is essentially a coach as well.
And so essentially a pitching coach more specifically.
So I think this is just kind of a natural step forward for Stephen Vogt here.
And it's really cool.
And by all accounts, you know, like you said, really great guys.
So it seems like you're just adding another quality person to the club.
And that's awesome.
So to just wrap up here, yeah, Maniacta, Christopher Negron, they're back as the first and third base coaches.
Perry Hill's back.
Jared DeHart's back.
Tony Arnrich is back Pete Woodworth is back.
Trent Blake, as I mentioned, is back.
Carson Vital is back as the Major League Field Coordinator.
And then Stephen Voked, of course.
And yeah.
So good stuff there for the Mariners who get to keep all their guys
and get to add a really interesting coach to their staff as well.
Moving on here, the Mariners yesterday reportedly,
according to Kylie McDaniel of ESPN,
came to agreement on a minor league signing with Colin Moran,
first base slash third baseman,
who started his career with the Astros,
was traded to Pittsburgh and the Garrett Cole deal, I believe.
I think that's what it was.
And had a couple of pretty good years.
Played this past season in Cincinnati was dreadful, more or less,
in Cincinnati.
And now he signs a minor league deal with the Mariners
with a spring training invite.
But Colby, I think this is this is kind of an interesting addition here because, you know, you look at his numbers, they're not overwhelming.
You know, the WRC pluses by year, if you're going from 2018, which is this first full season to now 102, 93, 112, 9786.
That's not going to get you very excited.
But you look at some of these slash lines, they're pretty good.
2018, 277, 340, 407 over 144 games played.
Then 277, 322, 429 over 149 games played.
Then he played most of the shortened COVID season and had, by WRC Plus standards, at least, had his best year.
247, 325, 47, 472, 427, 427, WRC plus.
And even 2021, you know, 258, 334, 390.
You would love to have more slugging there, of course.
But, you know, especially for a guy that's going to play corner infield.
But as a bench bat, that's fine.
So I like this
I like taking this flyer and I think he's someone that could actually
Legitimately compete for a
Major League spot in spring training depending on you know what else the Mariners do
You know between here and and spring training but yeah I think this is I mean this is certainly better than like you know
And aside from you know all the personal stuff with Steven Sousa but like just suza the player this is this seems better than adding someone like that
This is not just you know veteran
up because we need a body, you know, when a bunch of injuries stack up. This seems like there
actually might be something here with Colin Moran. Yeah. And it's also not like, well, he hit, he was really
good like five years ago. So maybe we get lucky. And he he recaptures that. No, I mean, Colin
Moran was good, you know, relatively good in 2021. And he was pretty good in 2020. And you know,
it remains to be seen what his role is. But I was curious in 2021, which is kind of the last year he got
enough at bats to draw any kind of conclusion from against right-handed pitching that year.
He hit 288 with a 352 on base and a 432 slugging.
So 112 WRC plus, that's really good.
And you kind of look at it and you say, well, you know, what are the odds that he makes the team?
Is there any reason to get excited here?
I don't know.
There's a reason to get excited.
I would say the odds that he makes the team naturally or probably like 15%, maybe.
But the Mariners do have a couple bench spots that are up for grass.
And it's worth noting that if a. E. E. E. E. E. Hineo Suarez or Thai France, you know, get injured in spring training, knock on wood.
Moran is the next guy up. He would be the guy to take that job because we know it's not going to be Evan White, not at first base and obviously not a third.
And even if you're willing to use Dylan Moore there, you probably don't want to use them every single day.
Hence, Colin Moran playing third. And Moran's pretty good defensively. He's at least average.
So I think there's a role here for him.
regardless of injury, I think he could be the 26 guy,
and he could, you know, provide some of that,
some of those DH days when you want to give A Eugenio or Thai France a half day off,
which we know they want to do.
They want to keep that DH open to rotate guys through.
Those are two of the guys you'd be rotating.
Well, now you have a major leaguer who is fringe average bat, let's say,
who can go play those positions for a day and not absolutely kill you in the lineup.
And those are the type of players that have value.
Again, they're not players that you jump up and down.
And, you know, you're not pumped to do.
We're not doing an emergency podcast for Colin Moran on a minor league deal.
But he's a valuable player.
He's an interesting player.
It's exactly the type of NRI that Seattle should take shots on.
I hope they take a few more on a couple of other notable major leaguers who are still out there.
But this guy really does fill a role.
And I don't know the terms of his contract.
I don't know if he has an opt-out date or whatnot.
But if he's willing to go to.
AAA and you can stash him there for a little bit, then it's all gravy.
So I think this is a really good signing.
And it's a little bit of a fun one.
You know, former first round pick.
You know how Jerry loves to target those guys.
Of course.
But he is a left-handed bat, which you kind of need in your organization.
And he can't play first and third, which is a big benefit to you because, you know,
I mean, I don't want to say Ty France is definitely going to get hurt.
But he'll need some time off.
it that way. And Eugenio Suarez needs some time off too. He was an iron man until, you know, he broke his finger.
Maybe you don't, maybe he could be a little less streaky if he wasn't having to play 45 games in a row between days off.
So we'll see what Moran's ultimate role is. I still, I don't think it's likely he makes the team, but it's certainly not zero. And that's what makes this a really interesting NRI.
So he strikes out.
Don roster in Bite, by the way. Of course. In case you weren't aware. Yeah. You know, he strikes out a little.
bit more than you would like.
Obviously doesn't hit for a ton of power, which, you know, but I feel like that, that just
only matters if he's actually a starter.
In terms of just a bench player, like, he hits for, he's hit for a high average.
His career average right now is 263, which is above average.
30 points above league average.
Yeah.
So, and then, you know, 327 on base percentage career-wise, not bad.
It's about 10 points above league average.
Yeah.
And then, you know, 14, 415 slugging percentage again.
you would like more power out of a corner infielder, but overall, that's pretty solid.
That's about league average.
Yeah.
So.
I believe his career WRC plus is 98.
Yeah.
Right?
That feels about right.
He's an average hitter.
263-3-27-4-15.
Career strikeout rate of 22.3%.
But that's gone up over the last few years.
He was at 23.4% this past season, then 24.2% the year before that.
And then 26% in his career year in 2020.
Right. For reference, major league average is about 22% strikeout rate.
So the career average is the career average on a strikeout rate is essentially a league average.
And then 8.4% walk rate. Yeah, that'll play.
I believe league average is eight. So yeah.
There you go. He's an average hitter.
Yeah. Right. Which considering, you know, how many, like, can you say that about Taylor Tremel?
no can you say about Cade Marlowe I mean literally you can't we haven't seen him in the major leagues
you can't even really say that about Sam Haggurty with any confidence at least left-handed hitting
Sam Haggurty you certainly can't say that about so yeah there's a chance man there's a chance
he makes this roster heads up and it it would make some sense but we'll see I just I feel like
you know nobody cares about the guy who's just average at everything but an average
average major league player as the 26 guy on your roster.
It's valuable. It's got value.
You could be at a much worse spot.
And we'll, you know, we'll see what the Mariners want to do.
And obviously there's guys that have a lot more upside that are also battling for,
you know, those 25th and 26 spots on the roster essentially.
So we'll see how it all, you know, comes together.
But, I mean, you can be in a much worse position at opening day if you're 26 men on your
roster is call him around.
So that's, that's an interesting gift for the.
them and you know we'll see how it works and uh but yeah i like this deal uh this is you know
there to me there really isn't you know such a thing as a as a bad nri you know unless there's
off the field stuff there's off the field stuff of course yeah but like we were talking about on our
patreon show yesterday like you listed a bunch of guys for me and like you know you basically asked me
yes or no to this guy as an nri and i essentially said yes to every single one of them because
again do risks nothing you risk absolutely nothing
and you might be able to get something interesting
off of one of those guys. I mean, shoot, you know, a couple of years ago,
and this is obviously the, you know, an outlier,
but this is the popular one that a lot of people point to.
Rangers got Hunter Pence as an NRI,
and he ended up becoming an all-star that year.
And, you know, so.
I mean, the Mariners got Paul Seawald.
Yeah, Austinola, right?
Was an Osceola NRI?
Yeah.
Minor League free agent signing.
Same thing, yeah.
So, yeah.
like I said, nobody ever gets excited about these guys,
but you do have to take these shots and sometimes they pay off.
And I don't think anybody expects Colin Moran to be an All-Star or, you know,
turn into Austin Null or anything like that.
But again, the fact that you have a major league quality hitter in your depth right now,
entering spring training is pretty big because, honestly,
anybody who we would say is definitely a major league hitter at this point was already going to make this team.
So and a couple who we might might say probably isn't a major league hitter Jared Kellner
Taylor Trammell, they were probably going to make this team.
So it's always good to have, you know, emergency backup plans.
And I would only request from Jerry and Justin, uh, do Ben Gamble next.
Please and thank you.
Yeah, I'm down.
Co-sign.
Of course you are.
It's Ben Gamble.
Obviously.
I mean, if you guys have any doubts, just look up the turn ahead of clock night.
Ben Gamble and those jerseys.
There you go. You'll be convinced.
Plus, this team for all of its, all of its goodness, lacks flow.
It needs some more flow.
That's true.
Logan.
They used to be the kings of flow.
They did, man.
They did.
And then I just, I mean, I'm just saying, you need a little more flow.
You have Logan Gilbert, but like, like, that's, that's like double A compared to big animal.
I feel like one of these years, Logan is just going to show up at spring training with like all of his hair cut off.
It's just going to freak us all out.
Man.
I don't.
freaked me out when he started growing that goatee.
Oh,

He started pitching better with it somehow.

aesthetically,
it was not a good idea.

Logan.
All right.
Whatever.
We,
he pitches like you did in September,
by the way.
Then he can keep it.
There you go. There you go. Yeah, I won't complain if he's pitching like that.
All right. So Friday's show, programming note, if you missed it, is going to be a little bit different. We got an interview that's going to last the entire duration of that show with Casey Sadler, Mariner's right-handed reliever who's looking to make the team after missing all of 2022 with a shoulder injury.
