“The Zone” Northwest Sports Update 8/20/24

The Seattle Mariners are replacing manager Scott Servais with Dan Wilson, per Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. Seattle once had a ten-game lead in the American League West, but now has a five-game deficit in the standings. The recent collapse will likely hurt their chances of a spot in the AL Wild Card. Servais, 59, was in his ninth season as the Mariners’ manager, compiling a 680-642 record. In his lone postseason appearance during his tenure, the Mariners won against the Toronto Blue Jays in the Wild Card series before getting swept by the Houston Astros in the ALDS.

SEATTLE (AP) — With growing speculation that a managerial change could take place, Scott Servais learned he would no longer be in charge of the Seattle Mariners from a news alert flashed across a television screen -- not from his bosses. It was clumsy misstep by the Mariners on Thursday. Just another error during a two-month span in which the club collapsed, falling from seemingly being on its way to a division title to sitting on the fringes of playoff contention in the American League.  “In what has been one of my least favorite days in my professional life, the worst part of it was the fact that Scott and (hitting coach Jarret DeHart) found out about this over the crawl of a news channel,” Mariners executive vice president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto said. “That, it crushes me and I know it hurts them a great deal.” Servais was let go in the midst of his ninth season in charge of the Mariners, but only after the team had squandered a 10-game lead in the AL West and now finds itself trying to play catch up with only five weeks left in the regular season.
