Lookout Landing Slightly OT: Comcast vs Dish - Mariners Coverage

I'm getting fed up with Comcast - their DVR box is an unbelievably awful piece of garbage, and they just took away my long-standing promotional rate so now I'm paying even more for the same hunk of junk.   To add insult to injury, they took one of my favorite channels (Speed), and moved it into a premium package that I have to pay yet MORE for.  The one great thing about Comcast is that they carry ALL of the M's games in HD.

It looks like Dish Network will be cheaper....but first I need to figure out if they carry all of the Mariners games.  The customer service girl seemed truly baffled by my question, and while she eventually said "no blackouts", I don't really believe her.

I know someone else in the Seattle area has been through this.  What's the scoop?  Can I get all the Mariners games somewhere other than Comcast?   Or do they own my soul?
