Seattle Mariners 2024 World Series Odds
The first half of the 2024 season has been a good one for the Seattle Mariners. Seattle took the lead of the American League West Division with the defending world champion Texas Rangers suffering from a World Series hangover and the perennial power Houston Astros struggling to find consistency. Although Seattle leads the AL West, they are benefiting as much from the weak division as they are from their own work. Seattle’s run production ranks among the worst in baseball, and the bullpen has been inconsistent.

Few teams are better at perpetually disappointing their fans than the Seattle Mariners. It all goes back to 2001 when the M’s went 116-46, only to get blown out 4-1 in the ALCS. Last year, the Mariners were a trending future market pick after making the 2022 ALDS in their first playoff appearances since 2001. This offseason, the Mariners are getting some but not much future market action in a division loaded with the Texas Rangers and Houston Astros, the past two World Series champions.
Last season, the Mariners were a trendy pick for gamblers, but that robbed Seattle of much of its value following their status as a surprise ambush team in 2022. Despite the sour taste in the mouths of fans and gamblers, Seattle can take encouragement from finishing only two games behind the past two World Series champions. After a mediocre offseason, the jury remains out in the minds of many gamblers.
Seattle should be better than they were last season, if only because they can clobber home runs, which was something the Mariners were already OK at.
There was no huge free-agent splash, though, and the Mariners’ payroll remains closer to the Guardians than the Rangers, which is problematic considering how outstanding the rotation projects to be. It’s a rotation that should prompt some interest in the open market.
It was a brutally thin offseason for position players, but Seattle prefers to think outside of the box. There had to have been potential trades that could have led to more runs than this.
Overall, the Mariners should pitch well, and they should hit just good enough. It should be enough to contend. But this offseason could be exciting enough to make them AL West favorites.
