About
Built by a fan. For the faithful.
The Couch GM started the way every great season does — on the couch, with strong opinions and the stats to back them up. The belief behind it is simple: the most passionate, most knowledgeable baseball fans don't all live in New York or Boston. Some of us are out here in the Pacific Northwest, watching every inning and knowing the farm system cold — and we deserve a national voice.
So we built one.
Not a podcast. A film.
We make cinematic short-film player profiles — fully researched, fully scored, zero fluff — for fans who want to feel something real about the game, not just hear another opinion. Ten to fifteen hours go into every video. When the notification hits, you stop what you're doing.
We don't make content for people who are just discovering baseball. We make it for the people who love it the way it deserves to be loved.
What we make
Cinematic player profiles spanning all of baseball, Mariners-weighted. MLB deep dives on the trends and trades that actually matter. Fantasy intel for the die-hards who want to know the name before it's everywhere. Pacific Northwest pride, national standards.
The gear
This shop is the gear that goes with it: premium embroidered caps, printed tees and hoodies, drinkware, and — soon — real championship hardware for leagues that play for keeps. Clean, well-made pieces held to the same standard as the films, including a color set built to represent all 30 fan bases. Made for the manager who takes the role seriously. No fluff. No bandwagon.
Who's behind it
The Couch GM is the work of Connor Webb — PNW native, WSU Coug, lifelong Mariners fan, and former credentialed Mariners media member who chose his fans over access. Finance brain, baseball heart, and an obsession with telling the human stories the front office never will.
Every fan has an opinion. This one has the research.
