SEATTLE — The Mariners announced Thursday a new service to bring the team’s games to fans on cable, streaming, and satellite without blackouts.

Mariners TV will replace ROOT Sports, which shut down after the 2025 baseball season.

Fans will be able to stream games on Mariners.tv for $99.99 for the whole season or $19.99 per month.

Signups begin on Feb. 10 and will be available to residents of Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Alaska, Montana, and Hawaii.

Mariners fans outside of those states will be able to access games through the usual MLB.tv.

Fans within the Mariners regional viewing area have historically been blacked out of games through MLB.tv to avoid conflicts with local television providers.

Games will also continue to be available through traditional cable and satellite avenues.

The Mariners said specific information on providers and channels will be announced once confirmed before the beginning of the season.

Distribution will shift to Major League Baseball’s Local Media in 2026, which has been running some teams’ broadcasts since the division was created in 2023.

The Mariners said in a press release that the MLB will be responsible for producing the channel and negotiating carriage agreements with cable and satellite providers.

Mariners announcers will continue to be team employees, and the team will hire and oversee broadcasters and producers.

The Mariners announced their broadcast team for the 2026 season on Tuesday.

The popular Aaron Goldsmith is returning as the lead television announcer in his 14th season with the Mariners.

Rick Rizzs will lead the radio side in his final year alongside Gary Hill Jr.

Angie Mentink, Jay Buhner, Ryan Rowland-Smith, Dave Valle, and Brad Adam will all return as announcers.

MLB Local Media distributes broadcasts for the Padres, Diamondbacks, Rockies, Guardians, and Twins as of the 2025 season.

In recent years, Mariners games have become more challenging to watch. Comcast moved ROOT Sports to a higher-priced tier, and a direct-to-consumer app and website only became available for the first time last season for $19.99 per month.

The only way to watch Mariners games online in 2025 was on the ROOT Sports app or FUBO. This became a frustrating reality for the rising number of cord-cutters who canceled their cable television subscriptions.

In a 2024 interview, Mariners majority owner John Stanton acknowledged that subscriber numbers are way down from a decade ago, citing 3.3 million in 2014 to just 1.2 million.

ROOT Sports had also struggled to provide programming outside of Mariners games and content.

The network held the rights to broadcast Seattle Kraken games from the team’s inaugural 2021-2022 season until the end of an agreement in 2024.

ROOT Sports also lost Portland Trail Blazers games in 2024.
