SEATTLE MARINERS NEWS

Mike Ford - Lifts first homer Ford went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Angels.

Impact This was just Ford's second hit in six games played, and he's added a mediocre 1:6 BB:K. The 30-year-old was effective in the minors, but it's yet to translate against major-league pitching. He hit three homers and slashed .206/.302/.313 over 149 plate appearances with four clubs last year, but he's yet to earn anything more than a part-time role with the Mariners in 2023.

Jarred Kelenic - Swats 11th homer Kelenic went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Angels.

Impact Kelenic opened the scoring with his first-inning blast, snapping a 13-game homer drought. He's faded a little bit to start June, going 4-for-20 (.200) over his first six games this month. The outfielder is still enjoying solid production from the heart of the order with a .270/.333/.502 slash line, 11 homers, 29 RBI, 28 runs scored and seven stolen bases over 59 contests.

Luis Castillo - Mixed results in loss Castillo (4-4) allowed five runs (three earned) on six hits and a walk while striking out 10 over six innings, taking the loss Friday versus the Angels.

Impact This was Castillo's second 10-strikeout effort of the season, both of which have come in his last three starts. He also gave up multiple home runs for the second time this year, and the five runs allowed were the second-highest total he's given up. All in all, it was a middling performance for the Mariners' ace, who now has a 2.70 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 92:17 K:BB through 76.2 innings across 13 starts. He's projected for a home start versus the Marlins next week.

Kolten Wong - On bench Friday Wong is not in the lineup Friday against the Angels.

Impact Wong had drawn three straight starts at second base for the Mariners, but he'll give way Friday to Jose Caballero. Wong, 32, carries a paltry .153/.246/.178 batting line through 41 games (134 plate appearances) this season.

Penn Murfee - Activated from injured list Seattle activated Murfee (elbow) from the 15-day injured list Friday.

Impact Murfee has completed his month-long recovery from a bout of right elbow inflammation and will jump back into the Mariners' bullpen Friday night against the Angels. The 29-year-old had registered a 1.38 ERA with 15 strikeouts in 13 innings prior to the IL stint.

Matt Festa - Optioned to Triple-A The Mariners optioned Festa to Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.

Didi Gregorius - Inks MiLB deal with Seattle Gregorius signed a minor-league contract with the Mariners on Thursday, Russell Dorsey of Bally Sports reports.

Impact Gregorius signed with Algodoneros de Union Laguna of the Mexican League on May 2 and has since recorded a 1.208 OPS with 11 homers. He will serve as an organizational depth piece in Triple-A Tacoma, but the 33-year-old shortstop could work his way onto the Mariners' bench if he continues to hit the cover off the ball. Gregorius slashed .210/.263/.304 through 232 plate appearances with the Phillies last season.

Penn Murfee - Another strong rehab showing Murfee (elbow) fired 1.1 scoreless innings during which he issued a walk and recorded a strikeout in Triple-A Tacoma's win over Reno on Wednesday.

Impact Murfee was sharp for the second time in as many rehab appearances, earning the win in the process. The right-hander worked up to 26 pitches, pounding 15 in for strikes. With 2.1 scoreless, hitless frames under his belt already with the Rainiers, Murfee may only need one or two more appearances on the farm to convince the Mariners he's ready for activation.

Dylan Moore - Active in season debut Moore, just activated from a season-long stay on the injured list Tuesday, entered Wednesday's loss to the Padres as a defensive replacement in the seventh inning and drew two walk...

Impact Moore swapped in for Eugenio Suarez at third base and subsequently came around to score Seattle's first run in the eighth, albeit after the Mariners were already down 10-0. The versatile utility asset should see fairly regular playing time moving forward considering his ability to fill in at every position except catcher.

JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jarred Kelenic - Two hits in loss Kelenic went 2-for-4 with a double in Wednesday's 10-3 loss against San Diego.

Impact Kelenic had gone just 1-for-17 with 11 strikeouts over his last five games. His fifth-inning double was his first extra-base hit since May 28. Overall, Kelenic is still slashing a solid .269/.330/.491 with 10 homers, 27 runs scored, 27 RBI and seven steals through 233 plate appearances this season. However, he's batting just .163 (7-for-43) with a .498 OPS and a concerning 46.9 percent strikeout rate over his last 12 games.
