Pitchers and catchers began to report to spring training for the Seattle Mariners on Feb. 10, marking the beginning of the 2026 baseball season.

The Mariners will enter this season with more expectations than almost any other year since the franchise was established in 1977. In 2025, Seattle advanced all the way to Game 7 of the American League Championship Series before ultimately falling to the Toronto Blue Jays. It was the first time the M's have ever been one win away from the AL pennant.

Since the disappointing loss at the hands of the Blue Jays, the Mariners have made moves in the efforts of clearing the biggest hurdle remaining for the franchise: make it to and, ideally, win a World Series.

If Seattle is able to reach that ultimate goal, fans will be able to start every step of the way, beginning with the M's' first Cactus League game against the San Diego Padres at 12:10 p.m. PT on Feb. 20 at the Peoria Sports Complex in Peoria, Ariz.

At the conclusion of the regular season last year, the long-time home of Mariners broadcasts, ROOT Sports, shuttered its doors. This left MLB as the home of Seattle's televised games for 2026, with the exception of nationally-televised games.

As part of the move to MLB.TV, 16 of the Mariners' home spring training games will be available to watch by fans.

Those games are: vs. the Padres at 12:10 p.m. PT on Feb. 20; vs. the San Francisco Giants at 12:10 p.m. PT on Feb. 21; vs. the Chicago White Sox at 12:10 p.m. PT on Feb. 24; vs. the Cleveland Guardians at 12:10 p.m. PT on Feb. 26; vs. the Arizona Diamondbacks at 5:10 p.m. PT on Feb. 27; vs. the Texas Rangers at 12:10 p.m. PT on March 1; vs. the Los Angeles Angels at 12:10 p.m. PT on March 3; vs. San Diego at 12:10 p.m. on March 5; vs. the White Sox at 12:10 p.m. PT on March 7; vs. San Diego in a split-squad game at 1:10 p.m. PT on March 17; vs. the Milwaukee Brewers at 1:10 p.m. PT on March 18; in a split-squad game against the Brewers at 2:10 p.m. PT on March 20 and against the Chicago Cubs at 1:10 p.m. PT on March 21.

The game against Milwaukee on March 20 will serve as the Spring Breakout game for both teams, which will highlight several top prospects from both organizations.

However, the streaming service for Cactus League games comes with a catch.

Fans looking to watch Seattle's spring training games will have to purchase the season pass for Mariners.TV. Fans can purchase the Mariners.TV-exclusive package at $99.99, or the Mariners.TV and MLB.TV combo package at a price of $199.99 for the season.

There will also be a monthly subscription to Mariners.TV available at $19.99, the same price as the ROOT Sports streaming service from last year, but it won't be available until March 23 after spring training games conclude. Mariners.TV subscriptions include minor league games, as well.

Spring training games will be available to out-of-market subscribers, whereas regular season games will be available only to in-market purchasers. Out-of-market fans will be able to watch regular season games with the MLB.TV package.

States included in-market include Washington, Idaho, Hawaii, Oregon, Montana and Alaska.

For fans unable or uninterested in subscribing to the television package can listen on Seattle Sports 710. Several broadcasts will air on a delayed broadcast.
