Receives spring training invite The Mariners have extended Emerson an invitation to big-league camp during spring training.

Impact Emerson isn't in the running for an Opening Day roster spot, as he's just 19 and yet to advance past A-ball, but the Mariners will reward their top prospect with a look-see in spring training. Seattle also invited fellow prospects Lazaro Montes, Cole Young, Harry Ford and Michael Arroyo to big-league camp.

Advances to High-A The Mariners promoted Emerson from Single-A Modesto to High-A Everett on Monday.

Impact A 6-foot-1, 195-pound shortstop, Emerson has quickly established himself as one of the top prospects in the Mariners farm system and one of the top infielders in the lower rungs of the minors since Seattle selected him with the No. 22 overall pick in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft. The 19-year-old pushed his way to Everett after slashing .293/.440/.427 with two home runs, six stolen bases and an 18.9 percent walk rate over his 193 plate appearances with Modesto.

Back in action for Nuts Emerson (foot) is hitting .400 with three doubles and one steal in five games since being activated from the 7-day injured list with Single-A Modesto.

Impact Emerson was activated June 29 but has only played in five of the 11 games since then, although he has played in two of the last three. Perhaps his foot was still bothering him a little, or the Mariners just wanted to be very cautious. Emerson has a .300/.439/.444 slash line with two home runs, four steals and more walks (19) than strikeouts (16) in 24 games for Modesto.
