In a Tweet from Adam Jude of The Seattle Times, Buhner revealed that he's scheduled for 19 games in 2025.

Most of the games will in Buhner's home state of Texas, where Seattle has two American League West rivals: the Texas Rangers and Houston Astros. Buhner gave a quote to Jude that the latter tweeted out following the news of how many games Buhner would be calling:

“I’m a little nervous about it, getting back in the booth, trying to refamiliarize myself. But it’ll be fun. It’s like riding a bike. Baseball’s been my whole life, from Little League all the way up. It’s still a passion and I still bleed Mariner blue.”
