Daniel Zamora - DFA'd by MarinersZamora was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Thursday.
ImpactThe southpaw was sent to Triple-A Tacoma in early June, and he'll now be removed from the 40-man roster to make room for Wyatt Mathisen, who was acquired from the Rays. Zamora made three relief appearances since he returned to the minors, and he allowed five runs (three earned) in two-thirds of an inning during his most recent outing.

Keynan Middleton - Recalled by MarinersMiddleton was recalled by the Mariners on Thursday.
ImpactMiddleton made three minor-league appearances (one start) after he was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma, and he allowed one run over five hits and two walks while striking out seven in four innings. The right-hander posted a 4.42 ERA and 1.09 WHIP in 18.1 innings with the Mariners earlier in the season, and he picked up four saves and three holds. While Kendall Graveman has been the slight favorite for save chances recently, Middleton could factor into some late-game situations if he performs well during his return to the big-league bullpen.

Vinny Nittoli - Heads back to minorsThe Mariners optioned Nittoli to Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.
ImpactThe 30-year-old Nittoli's first stint in the big leagues lasted just under a week after he was brought up from Tacoma last Friday. He made his MLB debut Wednesday against the Rockies, giving up two runs over one inning. Seattle will call up Keynan Middleton from Triple-A to replace Nittoli in the bullpen and on the 26-man active roster.

Wyatt Mathisen - Acquired by SeattleThe Mariners acquired Mathisen from the Rays on Thursday in exchange for cash considerations.
ImpactMathisen, who began the season with the Diamondbacks, will be moving on to his third organization in just over the month after the Rays were quick to drop him from their 40-man roster. The 27-year-old should have a clearer path to getting a look at the big-league level with Seattle, but he's expected to report to Triple-A Tacoma initially. Over 18 games with the Rays' Triple-A affiliate in Durham, Mathisen slashed .288/.344/.525 with three home runs and nine RBI.
