Mitch Garver - Swats three-run homer Garver went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer in Sunday's win over the Rangers.

Impact Garver clobbered the first pitch he saw from Andrew Heaney and sent it over the wall in center field for a three-run blast. He's only appeared in five games this month and Sunday was his first appearance in a full week. Over his last three games, Garver's racked up six hits and nine RBI and is one RBI shy of reaching 50 RBI in consecutive seasons for the first time in his career.

Victor Robles - Exits early Sunday Robles (undisclosed) exited Sunday's contest against the Rangers in the seventh inning, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Impact Robles picked up a leg injury in the fourth inning while trying to beat out a groundout, ultimately staying in the game until the seventh frame. The outfielder notched his third hit of the day, an RBI-single, before exiting the contest. Robles will finish Sunday 3-for-4 with the RBI and more information on his status will likely be provided in the near future.

Mitch Haniger - Losing out on at-bats vs. righties Haniger will serve as the Mariners' designated hitter and No. 8 batter in Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Impact Though he'll be included in the lineup Sunday against Rangers southpaw Andrew Heaney, Haniger has fallen out of the mix for regular playing time against right-handers in September. Haniger failed to pick up a start in any of the Mariners' previous six games.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Jorge Polanco - Getting Sunday off Polanco is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Impact Polanco will be joined on the bench by Josh Rojas, Luke Raley and Cal Raleigh as the Mariners give some regulars a breather in a day game after a night game. Dylan Moore will check in at second base in place of Polanco, who has gone just 5-for-40 (.125 average) at the plate thus far in September.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Josh Rojas - On bench versus southpaw Rojas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Impact The Mariners entered Sunday having faced nine straight right-handed starting pitchers, and Rojas posted a .397 OPS while starting all of those games. Luis Urias will take over at the hot corner against Texas lefty Andrew Heaney.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Luke Raley - Out of Sunday's lineup Raley is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Rangers.

Impact Raley will hit the bench Sunday after a span of nine straight starts, during which he went 11-for-33 with five doubles, three homers, two steals, 10 RBI and six runs. Justin Turner is manning first base while Mitch Haniger serves as the designated hitter.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Cal Raleigh - Receiving breather Sunday Raleigh is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Impact Raleigh's absence from the lineup ends a run of 19 straight starts, during which he posted a .229/.341/.400 slash line with three homers, 15 RBI and 10 runs. Mitch Garver will step in behind the plate to catch for right-hander George Kirby.

Teddy McGraw - New concern over arm McGraw made his final appearance of the 2024 season for Single-A Modesto on Aug. 22 due to tightness in his pitching arm, and he recently met with Dr. Keith Meister regarding the i...

Impact Mariners general manager Justin Hollander recently conceded the organization is "concerned" about McGraw's status, given the 22-year-old already has two Tommy John surgeries in his medical history. McGraw felt the tightness during that Aug. 22 outing, which was only his fourth of the season. With Modesto's season over, the right-hander will have time to evaluate his options ahead of the 2025 minor-league campaign.

Andrés Muñoz - Secures third win Saturday Munoz (3-6) got the win against the Rangers on Saturday, firing a perfect ninth inning.

Impact Munoz was called on to protect a 4-4 tie in the ninth inning and delivered by retiring Josh Jung, Ezequiel Duran and Carson Kelly on 11 pitches. The right-hander was then afforded his first victory since way back on May 5 via Randy Arozarena's game-winning single in the home half of the frame, putting a fitting bow on Munoz's third straight scoreless relief appearance. The Mariners' closer is enjoying a strong fantasy season overall, recording a career-high 21 saves to go along with six holds, a 2.10 ERA, an 0.95 WHIP and an 11.5 K/9 across 55.2 innings.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Logan Gilbert - Solid showing in no-decision Gilbert didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's win over the Rangers, allowing four earned runs on six hits, a walk and a wild pitch over six innings. He struck out seven.

Impact The right-hander allowed at least four runs for the fourth time in the last six starts, with two-run home runs by Leody Taveras and Marcus Semien in the third and fifth innings, respectively, accounting for the damage. On the brighter side, Gilbert was able to continue generating plenty of swings and misses, notching 15 whiffs among his 97 pitches while extending his streak of starts with at least six Ks to eight outings. Gilbert pushed his career-high strikeout total to 198 as well with Saturday's production, and he'll once again aim for his eighth victory in a projected road rematch with the Rangers on Friday night.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Victor Robles - Hot streak continues in win Robles went 2-for-5 with two doubles, two stolen bases and a run in a win over the Rangers on Saturday.

Impact After having gone 4-for-7 with three stolen bases in the first two games of the series Thursday and Friday, Robles showed no signs of letting up with Saturday's performance, when he displayed a bit more pop than usual for good measure. The 27-year-old early-June arrival has been quite the find for an otherwise frustratingly inconsistent Mariners lineup, posting a .325/.394/.469 slash line and posting a perfect 25-for-25 tally on steal attempts in his 67 games with Seattle thus far. September is proving to be his best month yet, as Robles is now hitting .432 (16-for-37) across 12 games this month.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Julio Rodríguez - Keeps raking in Saturday's victory Rodriguez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in a win over the Rangers on Saturday.

Impact The resurgent Rodriguez continued knocking the cover off the ball Saturday, launching a 446-foot shot to left field in the third inning for his second homer in as many games. Rodriguez's multi-hit effort was also his fourth in the last eight games, and he's now boasting a .351 average and .952 OPS across the 39 plate appearances covering the entirety of that stretch.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Luke Raley - Slugs homer No. 20 in win Raley went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a win over the Rangers on Saturday.

Impact Raley's massive 436-foot blast to center field in the fifth inning with Cal Raleigh aboard was particularly significant, as it knotted the score at 4-4. The 29-year-old has already left the yard four times in 12 September games, adding five doubles, 11 RBI and a pair of stolen bases on his way to a .310 average in that span of 48 plate appearances. Raley's game-tying round tripper Saturday was also noteworthy from a personal standpoint, as it vaulted the offseason acquisition to a new career high in homers (20).
