Former Buckeye baseball star Dominic Canzone tearing it up for the Seattle Mariners

The former 8th-round pick has forced himself into the Seattle Mariners’ starting lineup.
Two weeks after getting called back up to the big leagues, former Ohio State baseball star and First Team All-Big Ten honoree Dominic Canzone is tearing the cover off the baseball for the Seattle Mariners. The left-handed hitting outfielder hit another home run last night in the Mariners’ 11-2 win over the Minnesota Twins — one day after belting two homers during a 14-6 win over the first-place Chicago Cubs.
For those keeping track at home, that’s three homers in two games, giving him 18 total for his career over 139 career games spread between the Diamondbacks and the Mariners.
Canzone had a slow start to the season this year, hitting .209 with a .639 OPS in spring training this season with the Mariners and then going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in the first two games of the season. Canzone was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on April 13, and over the next 45 games Canzone hit .296 with 13 homers, 36 RBI’s, and a .924 OPS.
Despite only playing 45 games in the minors, Canzone’s 13 homers is the ninth-most in the Pacific Coast League, and his .924 OPS would rank seventh in the PCL if he had played enough games to qualify.
Since being recalled by the Mariners on June 9, the 6-foot tall outfielder from Sagamore Hills, Ohio is hitting .333 with a 1.107 OPS, four home runs, and seven RBI. He’s limited his strikeouts, only punching out four times in 36 at bats — a miniscule 11% strikeout rate.
The advanced metrics back up Canzone’s performance this season — his expected batting average (xBA) stands at .287, which is better than league average. His expected slugging percentage (.479), average exit velocity (91.3 mph), and squared-up percentage (34.5%) are all better than league average as well.
Mariners manager Dan Wilson said that Canzone’s consistency and aggressiveness at the plate is what has made him valuable to the team after spending the majority of the season at Triple-A thus far.
“I think in terms of Dom, the consistency was there right now,” Wilson said after the Mariners beat Cleveland on June 13. “And so far in the couple of games he’s had an opportunity to play in, his intent has been very aggressive and the consistency has been there. He’s found the barrel a couple of times and is really hitting the ball well. That’s what you’re hoping for, and that’s what he’s been able to do.”
Canzone was a .336 career hitter at Ohio State from 2017-2019, and has established himself as a reliable option for the Mariners this season, especially against right-handed pitching. All four of his homers have come against right-handers, and with Seattle set to face right-handed pitchers in each of their next five games, Canzone should continue to get plenty of at-bats for the Mariners, who currently hold the final AL Wild Card spot, and would be the 6-seed in the American League if the season ended Monday night.

Unreasonable Expectations: Jeremiah Smith could best his freshman stats, but it will be tough
Michael Citro via our friends at Land-Grant Holy Land
Visit their fantastic blog and read the full article (and so much more) here

After putting up lofty numbers in his first collegiate season, multiple factors may keep Smith from reaching the same statistical heights as a sophomore.
From now until preseason camp starts in August, Land-Grant Holy Land will be writing articles around a different theme every week. This week is all about our Unreasonable Expectations. You can catch up on all of the Theme Week content here and all of our Unreasonable Expectations here.
Wide receiver Jeremiah Smith had a freshman season like no other in Ohio State football history. The native of Miami Gardens, Florida rewrote the school’s freshman receiving record book, including the most receptions, touchdowns, and yards on the way to helping the Buckeyes win a national championship.
However, even with a year of college football under his belt, there are multiple factors at play that make it unreasonable to expect Smith to reach those same numbers in his second season. He’s got the talent to do so, but there are things working against him.
It may seem ridiculous to suggest this, but Smith could play better and be more savvy in his second season and still not see an increase in production in his second year. To put things into perspective, however, it’s important to note where Smith is coming from to see where he might go.
In his first year, Smith played in 16 games, racking up 76 receptions for 1,315 yards and 15 touchdowns. He averaged 82.2 receiving yards per game and 17.3 yards per catch. His 76 receptions were the fifth most in a single campaign in OSU history, with his yardage total ranking fourth all-time, and his touchdowns mark was second only to Terry Glenn’s 17 in 1995, although he played a few more games. He also ran the ball six times for 47 yards and a touchdown.
The mythical “sophomore slump” is probably the least likely thing to hold him back and the most difficult factor to pin down. Offensive players’ numbers dip in their second season for a number of reasons, including teams adjusting and game-planning ways to stop them, staying at the same level while others move forward, or more intangibles, such as the quality of the team around them.
Smith will be playing with a new starting quarterback, regardless of who wins the job coming out of camp. That quarterback will have far less game experience than Will Howard had entering 2024. Additionally, the Buckeyes will not have veteran Emeka Egbuka to take some of the attention off of Smith.
There is a ton of talent in the receiver group, to be sure, but opposing teams won’t necessarily fear Carnell Tate or Brandon Inniss to the same extent. Smith will get the opposing team’s best cover man, and safety help as often as possible.
Aside from the extra attention Smith will get from defenses in 2025, it’s possible Ryan Day and Brian Hartline will be a bit less aggressive with Julian Sayin or Lincoln Kienholz at quarterback. This could be especially true if the Buckeyes run the ball well. Those new quarterbacks might also be more willing to check down than Howard was in his year as Ohio State’s starter.
We’ll just have to wait and see.
Smith could prove this column completely wrong and destroy his 2024 numbers in 2025. That’s the kind of talent he has. That doesn’t make it reasonable to expect it to happen.

The OSU news never sleeps, and we’ve got the latest from the Buckeye offseason.
As we quickly approach 60 days until the 2025 Ohio State football season, the news continues to flow, because the offseason news never sleeps.
We’re back to discuss the headlines since our last podcast, starting off with recruiting news with Cincere Johnson committing to the Buckeyes. We don’t normally dive too deeply into recruiting on this podcast, but it was a noteworthy addition, and how do you ignore a name like that?
We have had a couple of new kickoff times announced for this fall since our last show, and neither of them will start at noon, which should make some folks happy, although these aren’t the marquee matchups of the fall. We now know when the Grambling and Ohio University games will start.
The legendary Lee Corso will don mascot headgear one more time and that will take place at the Horseshoe on Aug. 30. The College Gameday crew will visit Columbus on the day the Buckeyes host the Texas Longhorns, and Corso will call it a career after the broadcast. Here’s to hoping he puts the Brutus Buckeye head on one more time. We talk about Corso’s career a bit and give some statistics about Gameday at Ohio State.
Ohio Stadium will get some renovations that will make wealthy people happy and earn more money for the university, but it will affect the marching band’s location. The new suites will probably be nice, but your hosts will not likely ever see the inside of one.
Some future OSU schedules have been adjusted, and we’ve got the skinny on that, even though everyone will probably forget those changes by the time they roll around.
Finally, we paid tribute to the late, great Jim Marshall, who passed away recently. Marshall may always be remembered for picking up a fumble and running the wrong way, but he had a terrific Ohio State career, and it’s one worth remembering.
We are in our monthly offseason schedule, but we could have more than one show a month depending on how much news there is. We will return to our weekly schedule in August, as camp opens and we get you ready for the 2025 Ohio State football season.
We would love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email. Any questions directed toward us will be answered on our next show.
