Email : Mike Marjama
Mike Marjama enters his first season as Field Manager of the Lincoln Potters after spending the last two as an assistant.
Mike is licensed real estate professional and trailblazing athlete using his platform to advocate for mental health, wellness, and personal development. Mike spent 10 years on an amazing journey chasing his dream of being a professional baseball player, climbing through the minor leagues to eventually make his Major League debut in 2017. In 2018, he was recognized as one of the 30 best catchers in Major League Baseball, serving as the Opening Day catcher for the Seattle Mariners.
As a former professional athlete, he recognizes how athletes can create positive impacts by sharing their stories and advocating for their passions. In 2018, he shared his challenges with a national audience through LeBron James’ digital media company, Uninterrupted, bringing awareness to how mental health and eating disorders can impact young men, athletes and beyond. Mike’s personal challenges with mental health and eating disorders, beginning early in his life have helped shape his new journey as coach, nationally acclaimed speaker and consultant. Mike is the first male professional athlete to speak out about eating disorders and their impact on athletes and his story has been featured by MTV, Good Morning America, The Doctors, CBS Today and countless others. Most notably in 2018, Mike traveled to the United States Capitol in Washington D.C. and addressed members of Congress about crafting better legislation for those affected by mental health.
Mike currently lives in Granite Bay working in real estate and helping local ballplayers pursue their dreams of playing in the Big Leagues. Yet he also spends his time around the country speaking at events, supporting the work of nonprofits, and helping craft better legislation to improve mental health and wellness.
With a successful Major League Baseball career, along with being a nationally acclaimed speaker and consultant, he knows what it takes to perform with the best in the world. After nearly 11 years as a catcher, guiding and serving some of the best players on the planet, Mike still enjoys finding ways to continue serving others. He may no longer be on a Major League field, but this is how he continues to step up to the plate.
