Gooooooood morning, Mariners fans! This is your captain, Shay, and here are some social media posts to get you through the next four hours before today’s first pitch.

I lied, this is Captain.

• There might be a new backyard addition coming to the Winker household soon…

• Not to be ignored is this interaction Jesse had with a “fan” (read: clown) in the comment section of that post:
