Dan Wilson Will Not Return as Seattle Mariners Manager in 2027
The Mariners said a new direction is best for 2027 after Wilson went 187-171 in three seasons and the club posted its worst full-season record since 2019.
- On Sunday, Sept. 27, the Seattle Mariners fired manager Dan Wilson after the club finished a 76-86 season, marking a significant regression from last year's AL West championship.
- The team's worst full-season record since 2019 followed their 90-win AL West title in 2025, representing a dramatic collapse that failed to meet internal expectations.
- President of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto attributed struggles to poor defensive accountability and did not retain bench coach Manny Acta, hitting coach Kevin Seitzer, infield coach Perry Hill, and outfield coach Eric Young Jr.
- During Monday's press conference, Dipoto announced an "exhaustive" search for a new manager, saying the team's culture needs a "reset" to compete in 2027.
- The Mariners plan to compete for a postseason berth in 2027, though they face roster voids with likely departures of Randy Arozarena and J.P. Crawford.
