Thinking about jumping back on the Mariners’ bandwagon? There’s plenty of room. A franchise that has crushed the hopes and dreams of its fans finally seems to be winning them back.
At a juncture when it has become customary to gripe about what’s wrong with the Mariners, fans are exulting about what’s right with them. Weird.
Each day that passes with the Mariners still in the division lead, each win that they pull out of thin air, each new hero that emerges, serves to chip away at the long-established mindset of skepticism and fatalism surrounding this team.
