Optioned to Triple-A Tacoma Kelenic was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday.
Impact Kelenic was one of the most hyped prospects in the league over the offseason, leading to widespread annoyance at the Mariners' decision to keep him in the minors until mid-May. He'll head back to the minors to sort things out after hitting .096/.185/.193 through 23 games. A .109 BABIP can be blamed for some of his struggles, but it's not as if producing numbers in line with his .180 xBA and .322 xSLG would count as meeting expectations. Kelenic's 28.3 percent strikeout rate was poor but not terrible, but he simply didn't hit the ball very hard when he did make contact, producing just a 5.3 percent barrel rate. Kelenic is still only 21 years old, so there's plenty of time for him to get back on track.

Not starting Sunday Kelenic is not in Sunday's starting lineup against the Angels.
Impact Kelenic is currently hitless in his last 37 at-bats dating back to May 26, so he'll be given a day to reset during Sunday's series finale. Taylor Trammell will slide to center field Sunday, with Donovan Walton moving from his usual position at second base to left field.

Sits Wednesday Kelenic is not starting Wednesday's game against the Athletics.
Impact The rookie will sit against what would be a tough matchup in lefty Sean Manaea. It's worth wondering whether Kelenic, hitting .111 since being called up and 0-for-26 in his last seven games, will be sent down to Triple-A, much like teammate Taylor Trammell, to regain his confidence at the plate. Trammell will start in center field Wednesday.

Notches third steal Kelenic went 0-for-3 with a pair of walks, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-5 extra-inning win over Oakland.
Impact While the rookie outfielder's skid stretched to 0-for-22, he was able to get on base multiple times for the first time since May 25. Kelenic has a poor .118/.211/.235 slash line with two home runs, six RBI, six runs scored and three stolen bases through 76 plate appearances. This is likely just a set of growing pains for the 21-year-old as he adjusts to major-league pitching.

Complementary impact in win Kelenic went 0-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and a run in a win over the Rangers on Friday.
Impact Kelenic found a way to make an impact out of the leadoff spot despite going hitless, reaching safely for the third time in the last five games. The prized prospect has gotten a mostly rude introduction to the big leagues after dominating Triple-A arms, slashing just .138/.206/.276 across 63 plate appearances, although four of his eight hits have at least gone for extra bases (two doubles, two home runs).
