Dominic Canzone Dominic Canzone Hits solo shot
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 10:48 PM
Canzone went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles.
Analysis: Canzone has nine homers on the year, including five over his last 14 contests. He's batting .381 (16-for-42) with seven RBI in that span as he continues to be fairly productive in a strong-side platoon role. Canzone is now hitting .276 with an .874 OPS, 26 RBI, 23 runs scored, 12 doubles and a stolen base over 170 plate appearances on the year. |

Luke Raley Luke Raley Pops 14th homer
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 10:45 PM
Raley went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles.
Analysis: Raley has endured a cold start to June. He's been held hitless in seven of nine games this month, going 3-for-31 (.097) since the calendar flipped. The outfielder is still batting .249 on the year, and he's added an .835 OPS, 14 homers, 33 RBI, 23 runs scored and a stolen base over 199 plate appearances. The Mariners appear to be committed to a platoon in right field, so Raley should continue to see steady playing time versus right-handed pitchers. |

Cole Young Cole Young Leadoff homer paces three-hit game
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 10:43 PM
Young went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles.
Analysis: Young led off the game with a homer, taking Kyle Bradish deep on the third pitch of the contest. Over the last 14 games, Young has hit safely in 13 of them, going 18-for-57 (.316) in that span. He's hit leadoff against the last five right-handers the Mariners have faced, corresponding with J.P. Crawford's (hand) exit from the lineup. Young is now batting .255 with a .684 OPS, five homers, 32 RBI, 29 runs scored, 10 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 70 contests this season, and he's trending up. |

Bryan Woo Bryan Woo Falters again
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 10:39 PM
Woo (5-5) allowed seven runs on seven hits, a walk and a hit batsman while striking out four over five innings to take the loss versus the Orioles on Thursday.
Analysis: Woo continues to be wildly inconsistent -- he's allowed at least four runs in five of his last nine outings, but he's also posted three scoreless lines in that span. The right-hander was cruising early Thursday, but a six-run third inning spoiled the effort. That included a pair of home runs, making this just the third time he's allowed multiple homers in a game this season. Woo now has a 4.28 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 79:15 K:BB through 82 innings across 14 starts. He'll look to get back on track next week in a rematch versus the Orioles in Seattle. |

Matt Brash Matt Brash Facing extended absence
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 3:54 PM
Brash has returned to Seattle to have his right lat strain evaluated further, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Brash missed most of May with a strained lat and then went back on the 15-day injured list Wednesday after aggravating the injury. More should be known about a timetable once he's looked at by doctors in Seattle, but manager Dan Wilson acknowledged Thursday that there is "going to be a little bit more time down" for Brash during this second IL stint. |

Colt Emerson Colt Emerson Returning to Seattle lineup
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 2:27 PM
Emerson (back) will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Thursday's contest in Baltimore.
Analysis: Emerson was held out of the Mariners' lineup for each of the previous three contests as be battled back spasms, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go in Thursday's series finale. The rookie infielder is sporting an elevated 30.4 percent in his first 19 major-league games but has gone deep four times. |

Domingo Gonzalez Domingo Gonzalez DFA'd by Mariners
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 1:47 PM
The Mariners designated Gonzalez for assignment Thursday.
Analysis: Gonzalez was added to the Mariners' bullpen Wednesday, but he'll now lose his spot after giving up four earned runs over two innings against the Orioles. Michael Rucker was selected to the active roster in a corresponding move. |

Michael Rucker Michael Rucker Selected from Tacoma
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 1:44 PM
The Mariners selected Rucker's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.
Analysis: Rucker will return to the majors for the first time since 2023 after posting a 1.59 ERA and 1.62 WHIP through 22.2 innings at Tacoma. He'll take the place of Domingo Gonzalez, who was designated for assignment in a corresponding move. |

George Kirby George Kirby Strikes out 10 in loss
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 8:29 PM
Kirby (5-6) took the loss Wednesday against the Orioles, allowing three runs on seven hits and three walks over six innings. He struck out 10.
Analysis: Kirby was impressive early Wednesday, blanking the Orioles for five innings while setting a season high with 10 strikeouts. However, things came apart in the sixth, as Kirby gave up three runs on three extra-base hits, which proved enough to leave the right-hander with his fourth loss in his last five starts. Still, it was a step in the right direction overall for Kirby, who'd struggled to a 7.29 ERA in his previous four outings. His ERA now sits at 4.07 with a 1.31 WHIP and 74:21 K:BB across 14 starts (84 innings). Kirby's currently scheduled for a rematch with the Orioles at home in his next outing. |

Jhonny Pereda Jhonny Pereda Sitting in second straight game
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 3:35 PM
Pereda is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.
Analysis: After making three consecutive starts at catcher, Pereda now finds himself on the bench for the second straight day while the Mariners go with Mitch Garver behind the plate. Pereda has produced a .750 OPS over 14 games since being called up from Triple-A Tacoma on May 14, but his run as Seattle's preferred option at catcher will soon come to an end with Cal Raleigh (oblique) in the midst of a rehab assignment and likely to be activated from the injured list at the beginning of next week. |

Yosver Zulueta Yosver Zulueta Scrubbed from 40-man roster
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 3:29 PM
The Mariners designated Zulueta for assignment Wednesday.
Analysis: Seattle needed to free up a spot on its 40-man roster. Zulueta has spent all of the 2026 season at Triple-A Tacoma, holding a 5.75 ERA and 21:16 K:BB across 20.1 frames. He stands a decent chance of passing through waivers, and if that happens he could remain in the organization. |

Matt Brash Matt Brash Shut down with lat strain
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 3:28 PM
The Mariners placed Brash on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to a right lat strain.
Analysis: Seattle recalled right-hander Domingo Gonzalez from Triple-A Tacoma to take Brash's spot in the bullpen. Brash has served as one of the top setup arms in front of closer Andres Munoz this season, notching three wins and six holds while accruing a 0.54 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB across 16.2 innings over his 20 appearances. |

Ryan Bliss Ryan Bliss Sent back down
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 3:27 PM
The Mariners optioned Bliss to Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.
Analysis: Bliss was just recalled Monday and started at second base the last two days. However, with Miles Mastrobuoni (calf) back from the injured list to reclaim his utility role, Bliss will head back to the minors. |

Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 3:25 PM

Miles Mastrobuoni Miles Mastrobuoni Ready for season debut
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 3:23 PM
The Mariners activated Mastrobuoni (calf) from the 60-day injured list Wednesday.
Analysis: Mastrobuoni is finally ready for his season debut with the big club after recovering from a right calf strain he suffered while playing for Team Italy during the World Baseball Classic. He's starting at second base and batting eighth for the Mariners in Baltimore on Wednesday. |

Colt Emerson Colt Emerson Not starting, but should avoid IL
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 3:11 PM
Emerson (back) will remain out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles, but he took part in a workout earlier in the day and is optimistic that he'll avoid a stint on the injured list, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Though he'll be on the bench for a third straight game while he contends with back spasms, Emerson reported improvement with his condition after taking some swings in the batting cage. Since receiving a promotion from Triple-A Tacoma on May 17, the 20-year-old infielder has cobbled together a .242/.319/.548 slash line with four home runs, 10 RBI and nine runs in 19 games. |

Will Wilson Will Wilson On rehab assignment
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 8:29 AM
Wilson (thumb) has gone 3-for-9 with two RBI and a 1:2 BB:K in his first three rehab games between High-A Everett and Triple-A Tacoma.
Analysis: Wilson began his rehab assignment with Everett last Friday and moved up to Tacoma on Tuesday. He's been shelved since early May with a fractured left thumb and could need a few more rehab games before the Mariners consider returning him to their active roster. |

Nick Davila Nick Davila Nabs first career save
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 8:06 AM
Davila allowed an unearned run on one hit and a hit-by-pitch while striking out one in the 10th inning Tuesday to record his first career save in a 6-5 win over the Orioles.
Analysis: Recalled from Triple-A Tacoma earlier in the day, Davila got the call after Jose Ferrer blew a save chance in the ninth and Randy Arozarena launched a two-run homer in the top of the 10th. Davila nearly blew his save chance too, but he got bailed out after letting the phantom runner come home when Blaze Alexander was thrown out at the plate. The rookie right-hander has yet to give up an earned run for Seattle in eight appearances and 8.1 innings this season, but his 5:6 K:BB highlights how fragile that modest success has been. He's unlikely to see regular high-leverage work behind closer Andres Munoz, Ferrer and Matt Brash. |

Randy Arozarena Randy Arozarena Goes yard in 10th in Baltimore
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 7:57 AM
Arozarena went 3-for-5 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Tuesday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Orioles.
Analysis: After leading off the Mariners' three-run fourth inning with a single and coming around to score, and then bringing home another run in the seventh, Arozarena capped his big night with a two-run homer off Rico Garcia in the top of the 10th to finally put the game away. The veteran outfielder snapped a 12-game power drought with the performance, but he's come racing out of the gates in June, slashing .367/.472/.533 through the first eight games of the month with two doubles, three steals, five runs and seven RBI. |

Logan Gilbert Logan Gilbert Delivers quality start Tuesday
Wed, Jun 10, 2026, 7:52 AM
Gilbert didn't factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing one run on three hits and two walks over six innings in a 6-5 extra-inning win over the Orioles. He struck out five.
Analysis: The right-hander produced his fifth quality start of the season on 105 pitches (61 strikes), and Gilbert was headed for his fifth win until Jose Ferrer blew the save in the ninth inning. Gilbert has given up one run or fewer in four of his last six outings, posting a 2.78 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 39:9 K:BB in 35.2 innings over that stretch. He'll look to keep rolling in his next start, which lines up to come at home early next week in a rematch with the O's. |
