The Nautical 9 — Episode 6 | April 15, 2026 Down to the Depths — and Right Back UpTravis and Ryan break down a week that tested every M's fan — from the darkest record since 2011 to right back in the AL West race in four days.

Victor Robles back on the IL, Schneider on paternity leave, so Patrick Wisdom gets the call from Triple-A.🌾 Down on the Farm Cade Anderson is dealing — 11 K's in 5 innings in his last Double-A start. The guys dig into the logjam: if Bryce Miller returns and Emerson keeps rolling, something has to give. Six-man rotation? Trade? Move Emerson to the pen? Colt Emerson projected for a May call-up.😤 Anaheim — The California NightmareG1 (W 3-1): Woo dealt. Cole Young breaks it open in the 10th.G2 (L 1-0): Zack Neto leadoff homer — that was all she wrote. Jo Adell robbed Cal, Naylor, AND leaped into the stands to rob JP. Three robberies. Greatest defensive outfield game we've ever watched against us.G3 (L 8-7): Offense scored seven but Luis gave up six and the bullpen gave up more. Brutal finish.😤😤 Texas — Four Losses, Four One-Run GamesG1 (L 2-1): Cal's first career homer. deGrom and the pen did the rest. Gilbert wasted again.G2 (L 3-2): Donovan leadoff bomb. Still not enough. Third straight one-run loss.G3 (L 2-0): Two hits. Two. Four and nine. It was dark in Arlington.☀️ Houston Home Stand — The CureG1 (W 9-6): Season-high 9 runs. Three in the first on walks and chaos. Randy two-run bomb breaks it open.G2 (W 8-7): Down 7-2, came all the way back. Cal's first homer at T-Mobile. Julio's first homer of the year. JP walks it off with a bases-loaded single.G3 (W 6-1): Walked until the cows came home. Julio extends his on-base streak.G4 (W): Nails goes nuclear — back-to-back homers. 13 hits. Kirby goes 7.2. Back to one game under .500.🌍 Around the League Dodgers are 12-4 being Dodgers. Everyone else is bunched up. Rangers lead the AL West at 9-7. Blue Jays and Astros rotations are in shambles. Pirates and Reds quietly hanging around. Cubs gave up 14 to Philly.🔭 Looking Ahead Padres (10-6) in town — soft schedule but a real lineup. Woo goes tonight. Jackie Robinson Day tomorrow.
