Offseason summary

On November 30, 1994, the Mariners became the first MLB team to publish an official website, called "Seattle Mariners Home Plate".

The start of the 1995 season was delayed by the ongoing players strike, which had ended the 1994 season in August. As the strike continued, the Mariners and all MLB teams began spring training with replacement players. In late March, the Mariners had provisional rosters of replacement players that included a few strikebreaking former MLB players, including Jim Paciorek, Marty Pevey, and Randy McCament. However, the strike ended on April 2, the day before replacement players were scheduled to start the regular season. A shortened 144-game MLB season started on April 26, with the Mariners' Opening Day the following night.
