  We're excited to be heading to Safeco Field this September, and not just because of the Mariners, U-Dub and Seahawks games; apparently, the Safeco Field stands are going the way of the house call. For five bucks, Mariners fans can download software that will allow them to order food from their seats. That's not all, either; you can also play

  After my third day at WD-50, a strange thing happened. I found something I thought I had lost; my reason for cooking. Years ago, I worked for Seattle’s most talented chef, Scott Carsberg. Don’t get me wrong, there are many very talented chefs in this city, doing very nice things in their restaurants. But Carsberg has [...]

  Earlier this year, a couple of friends and I gathered to make soup. Not just any soup, but “smoking soup”. You see, while my friends are varied and many, these two friends are a chef and a food writer. This soup was an early summer version of a dish my friend Becky Selengut collaborated [...]

  Berry season! What could be better? The photo above is from the Queen Anne Farmers’ Market a couple of weeks ago, when raspberries reigned, and blues were the berries in waiting. Now the shady, silvery bloom of ripe blueberries has replaced raspberries’ flushed pink in the flats of the local market vendors. I haven’t yet made

  Your mom makes you come to the farmers market. It’s not much fun, until you run into the balloon man. He is wearing a silly balloon hat, and funny yellow glasses. He makes a long balloon sword for your older brother, and then he asks you what you’d like. You are shy, and will not speak to him… not a word. That’s fine, the

• Mariners Discussing Jeff Clement For Al Reyes?

  Tags: Al Reyes, Jeff Clement, Seattle Mariners, Tampa Bay Devil Rays

  It was established yesterday that the Mariners are after Devil Rays reliever Al Reyes, desiring a young catcher in return.   Naturally, we raised Jeff Clement's name. Today U.S.S. Mariner comments on that idea, saying that Clement for Reyes has legs.  Needless to say they don't like the idea.  I agree - it would be a steal for

  UPDATE: Word via the Kansas City Star is that the Royals will get Kyle Davies in the deal.  The Teixeira trade needs to be finalized first though.  Nice job by Dayton Moore.  Apparently he preferred Davies over Wladimir Balentien.  UPDATE 2: Based on this MLB.com report and reports from Sports Radio 810, the deal is not

  The Phillies are attempting to corner the market on scumbags.  Today, they acquired 28 year-old reliever and wife beater/biter Julio Mateo from the Mariners.  Performance always wins out, and Mateo had allowed just four runs in 32.2 Triple A innings this year. Kudos to the Mariners for leaving Mateo in Triple A and getting him out of

  Let's take a look at some deals that almost happened yesterday. Kyle Farnsworth for Bob Wickman.  This would've been fun, reunions with former teams for both players.  However, the Braves wanted the Yankees to pick up all of Farnsworth's salary, apparently.  Brian Cashman didn't want to make him go away that badly, and Wickman
