DOMINIC CANZONE NEWS

Catches another breather Canzone is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels.

Impact Canzone went just 3-for-23 (.130) over his last six games, so manager Scott Servais decided to hold him out for the second time in as many days. For the second day in a row, Sam Haggerty will cover left field for the Mariners.

Remains hot Sunday Canzone went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Mets on Sunday.

Impact Canzone jump-started a Mariners rally from a 4-0 deficit, leaving the yard for the second consecutive game in the fourth inning with Mike Ford aboard to get Seattle within two. The outfielder has now boosted his average and slugging percentage by 91 and 174 points, respectively, a stretch during which he's posted a .320 average, .946 OPS and eight extra-base hits across 52 plate appearances.

Slugs homer as in-game replacement Canzone entered Saturday's win over the Mets as a pinch hitter in the sixth inning and remained in the game in right field, going 1-for-2 with a two-run home run.

Impact Canzone's blast with Mike Ford aboard came during his pinch-hit plate appearance and marked his fourth time leaving the yard this season. Three of those round trippers have come during his time with the Mariners, and he's now reached safely in seven of his last eight games overall while slugging four extra-base hits during that span.

Heads to bench Saturday Canzone is not in Saturday's lineup against the Mets.

Impact This is Canzone's first day out of the starting nine since Aug. 19. He hit .295 with one home run, seven runs and two RBI in 44 at-bats over that string of starts. Dylan Moore is picking up the start in right field against southpaw David Peterson.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Connects for third homer Canzone went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in a win over the White Sox on Monday.

Impact Canzone launched an eighth-inning blast that pushed the Mariners' lead to 13-1 at the time and served as his first homer since Aug. 13. The trade-deadline acquisition had broken out for a four-hit effort in Sunday's series finale against the Astros that included a pair of doubles, and following Monday's round-tripper, he's now impressively laced nine of his 20 hits on the season for extra bases.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Four hits in win Canzone went 4-for-5 with two doubles, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 7-6 victory over the Astros.

Impact Canzone had gone just 4-for-26 over his last 10 games before smacking four hits, including a pair of doubles, in Sunday's win over Houston. The 26-year-old Canzone is 10-for-42 (.238) with a .724 OPS since joining the Mariners at the trade deadline. Overall, he's slashing .238/.307/.388 with two homers, 12 runs scored and 10 RBI across 88 plate appearances this season between Seattle and Arizona.

AUGUST 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench against southpaw Canzone will sit against Astros lefty Framber Valdez on Saturday.

Impact All eight of Canzone's starts since joining the Mariners at the deadline have come against right-handers. His .162/.262/.297 line thus far for his new team doesn't make a strong case for an expanded role. Cade Marlowe and Sam Haggerty will handle the outfield corners Saturday.

AUGUST 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting versus lefty Canzone is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Kansas City.

Impact The Royals are starting southpaw Angel Zerpa, so the left-handed hitting Canzone will begin this one on the bench. Cade Marlowe and Sam Haggerty will be in the corner outfield spots and Teoscar Hernandez will handle the designated hitter duties.

AUGUST 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Hits game-tying blast Canzone went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-3 extra-inning loss to the Orioles.

Impact Canzone's ninth-inning blast tied the game at 3-3, but the Mariners would go on to lose in the 10th anyway. The outfielder has gone 5-for-26 (.192) over eight games since he was traded from Arizona to Seattle in the Paul Sewald deal. Canzone is at a mediocre .219/.275/.375 slash line with two homers, nine RBI, nine runs scored and four doubles over 69 plate appearances across 23 games between the two teams.

AUGUST 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sits against southpaw Canzone will be on the bench against lefty Cole Irvin and the Orioles on Saturday.

Impact Canzone has started against all but one of the righties the Mariners have faced since he came over from Arizona at the deadline, but he's been on the bench against all three lefties who've pitched against his new team. He's gone just 4-for-22 at the plate thus far, so it's easier to envision his playing time going down than up in the near future. Sam Haggerty and Teoscar Hernandez will handle the outfield corners Saturday.

AUGUST 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting Wednesday Canzone is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

Impact Canzone sat out against a couple lefties over the weekend and now finds himself on the bench against right-hander Yu Darvish. Acquired from Arizona at the trade deadline, Canzone has gone 3-for-18 with two doubles to begin his Mariners career. He will have to contend with Mike Ford and Cade Marlowe for starts against righties down the stretch.

AUGUST 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting again Saturday Canzone is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels.

Impact The Angels are starting a second straight lefty in Tyler Anderson, and with that, Canzone will remain on the bench. Dylan Moore and Teoscar Hernandez will man the outfield corners as Cal Raleigh serves as the designated hitter. Acquired from the Diamondbacks at the trade deadline, Canzone has gone 2-for-11 with a walk, a double and three runs scored to begin his tenure in Seattle.

AUGUST 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench versus lefty Canzone is not in the lineup Friday against the Angels.

Impact Dylan Moore, Julio Rodriguez and Teoscar Hernandez will start across the outfield for the Mariners as they face off against left-hander Reid Detmers. The left-handed-hitting Canzone has drawn only three plate appearances versus southpaws this year between Arizona and Seattle.

AUGUST 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Another start Wednesday Canzone is starting in left field and batting seventh Wednesday versus the Red Sox.

Impact Acquired from Arizona on Monday in the Paul Sewald trade, Canzone drew the start in right field Tuesday in his Mariners debut and went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored. The 25-year-old posted impressive offensive numbers throughout the Diamondbacks' minor-league system and could potentially carve out a regular role with Seattle as Jarred Kelenic recovers from a fractured foot.

AUGUST 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Doubles in team debut Canzone, traded from the Diamondbacks on Monday, went 1-for-4 with a double and a run in a loss to the Red Sox on Tuesday.

Impact Canzone drew the start in right field in his Mariners debut and was able to contribute his fourth major-league extra-base hit. The two-bagger reignited some of the modest momentum the rookie had begun building at the plate prior to the trade, as he'd authored three consecutive two-hit efforts -- two of them during the weekend series against his current team -- before going 0-for-3 in his final game for Arizona on Monday.

AUGUST 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Traded to Seattle Canzone was traded from the Diamondbacks to the Mariners on Monday along with Josh Rojas and Ryan Bliss in exchange for Paul Sewald, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Canzone is an interesting target for Seattle, as he has some Quad-A characteristics, making his big-league debut at age 25 after dominating (.354/.431/.634 slash line) in a return trip to Triple-A this season. He has a .237/.293/.368 slash line with one home run and a 19.5 percent strikeout rate in 41 MLB plate appearances. Canzone, who has played right field and designated hitter, could slot in as Seattle's primary right fielder once they unload Teoscar Hernandez, as expected.

Delivers key hit in win Canzone went 2-for-4 with two RBI in Saturday's 4-3 win over Seattle.

Impact Canzone singled through a drawn-in infield to score Corbin Carroll from third base for the game-winning run in the top of the eighth inning. It was the third consecutive start for Canzone, who delivered two hits in all three with four RBI. All three starts have come at designated hitter, a position that's largely been handled by Lourdes Gurriel and Evan Longoria (back). Given Canzone's hot bat, along with Longoria on the injured and Gurriel slumping, he could get more opportunities in the short term.

JULY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Makes second straight start Canzone started at designated hitter and went 2-for-4 with a double in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Mariners.

Impact Canzone made a second consecutive start and is 4-for-9 with a pair of doubles, two RBI and a run scored. He remains a minor roster piece, as his presence in the lineup gave a break to Lourdes Gurriel (on Wednesday) and Alek Thomas (Friday).

JULY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Swats first MLB homer Canzone went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Thursday's 7-5 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Canzone, who registered his first hit in the majors in Tuesday's series opener, belted his first MLB homer in the seventh inning to give Arizona a brief lead. His was the first of back-to-back homers, as Emmanuel Rivera followed up to increase the lead. Canzone has made three starts since being called up from Triple-A Reno earlier this month. The Diamondbacks are stacked in the outfield, and it's hard to see how Canzone can get significant plate appearances.

JULY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Selected for MLB debut Arizona selected Canzone's contract from Triple-A Reno on Friday.

Impact Canzone has put up excellent numbers throughout the minors since being selected in the eighth round of the 2019 MLB Draft out of Ohio State. That includes a .354/.321/.634 bating line with 16 homers and 71 RBI through 71 games this season at Reno. The 25-year-old can play both corner outfield spots and might also be an option at DH, though he's stepping into a fairly crowded situation with a NL West-leading Diamondbacks team. Canzone may have to impress right away to earn regular playing time.
