Could the Seattle Mariners be the next champions of the world? After falling just one win short of the World Series last season, the Mariners are back and ready to take the next steps towards their first baseball championship. MLB Network insider Jon Morosi believes they're the least-flawed team in the American League, and with good reason. While the Dodgers dominate the league, the Mariners have the potential to step in and fill the gap. But who are they up against? The Houston Astros and Texas Rangers have been the Mariners' main competition in the AL West, with the Astros winning seven of the past eight division titles. However, Morosi thinks the Athletics could surprise this season, even finishing with a better record than the Astros. The Mariners have added new talent, including All-Star Brendan Donovan, and are addressing areas of uncertainty like the bullpen. With a strong roster and a determined mindset, the Mariners are ready to take on the challenge and bring Seattle its first baseball championship. But will they be able to overcome the competition and make it to the top? Only time will tell. Stay tuned to find out!
