J.P. Crawford - Dealing with bruised knee Crawford, who is out of the lineup Sunday against the Rangers, has a bruised knee and is scheduled to receive treatment Sunday and Monday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Assuming Crawford's knee responds well to the treatment, he should be back in the starting nine for Tuesday's series opener in San Diego. Jose Caballero has shifted over to shortstop for Sunday's contest while Kolten Wong covers the keystone.

Ty France - Another three-hit night Saturday France went 3-for-5 with an RBI single, a double and a run in a loss to the Rangers on Saturday.

Impact France's second three-hit effort in the last four games was naturally overshadowed by the Rangers' 16-run outburst, but fantasy managers were certainly with the reigniting of the 28-year-old's bat after he'd gone 0-for-8 in the prior two games. France did also record his sixth and seventh strikeouts over the last three contests -- an elevated frequency for the usually above-average contact hitter -- but he's still carrying an impressively modest and career-low 15.3 percent strikeout rate for the season.

J.P. Crawford - Out with knee injury Crawford (knee) is not in the starting lineup versus the Rangers on Sunday.

Impact Crawford suffered a late knee injury during Saturday's blowout loss to the Rangers, and while he was optimistic about being able to play Sunday, the Mariners will be cautious and have their starting shortstop sit at least one game with an off-day coming Monday. Jose Caballero will handle shortstop duties with Kolten Wong starting at second base.

Bryan Woo - Suffers loss in MLB debut Woo (0-1) took the loss Saturday, allowing six runs on seven hits and one walk over two innings against the Rangers. He struck out four.

Impact Marco Gonzales (forearm) was placed on the injured list, so Woo was recalled from Double-A Arkansas and made his MLB debut Saturday. The outing certainly didn't go as planned for the 23-year-old, who was dominating in the minors, and it's unclear if he'll get another turn in the rotation. However, Seattle would likely have to select a player from the minors if they aren't going to give Woo another chance.

J.P. Crawford - Plans to play after late injury Crawford suffered a knee injury in the eighth inning of Saturday's loss to the Rangers but he plans to play against Texas on Sunday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Crawford suffered the knee injury while making a dive into second base and colliding with Leody Taveras. While Crawford was able to stay in the game, it was clear the shortstop was dealing with soreness. If the pain doesn't subside he may sit out a game, but for now Crawford is likely to be in the lineup for Sunday's finale against the Rangers.

Cal Raleigh - Out of lineup Saturday Raleigh is out of the lineup Saturday against the Rangers.

Easton McGee - Moved to 60-day IL McGee (elbow) was transferred Saturday from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

Impact McGee is expected to be sidelined until late 2024 after undergoing Tommy John surgery last month. Bryan Woo will take over the vacant 40-man roster spot.

Marco Gonzales - Placed on 15-day IL Gonzales was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a left forearm strain.

Impact Gonzales felt discomfort in his forearm following his last start May 28 against the Pirates and testing has since revealed a strain. Bryan Woo is up from Double-A Arkansas to fill the vacant spot in the Mariners' starting rotation, beginning with his MLB debut Saturday versus the Rangers. There's no timetable yet on Gonzales, but this type of injury usually requires more than just a couple weeks of rest and rehab.

Bryan Woo - Selected for MLB debut Seattle selected Woo's contract from Double-A Arkansas on Saturday.

Impact Woo is set to make his major-league debut in a start Saturday against the Rangers as he jumps all the way from the Double-A level. The 23-year-old right-hander had registered a sharp 2.05 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 59:12 K:BB through 44 innings (nine starts) this season in the Texas League and seems worthy of a try in most fantasy formats. He's replacing Marco Gonzales (forearm) in the Mariners' rotation.

Julio Rodríguez - Another steal in loss Rodriguez went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a loss to the Rangers on Friday.

Impact Rodriguez's single and 11th steal of the season were one of the few blips on the offensive radar for a Mariners squad flummoxed by Jon Gray and two relievers Friday. The talented outfielder has hit safely in 10 of his last 11 games, a span in which his 19-for-47 showing at the plate has pulled his average and OPS up by 42 and 89 points, respectively.

Mike Ford - Hits safely in debut Ford, called up from Triple-A Tacoma earlier in the day, went 1-for-3 in a loss to the Rangers on Friday.

Impact The 30-year-old drew the start at designated hitter and was able to contribute a single in his first taste of big-league action this season. Ford generated a lackluster .206/.302/.313 slash line across 149 plate appearances with a whopping four major-league teams in 2022, and even with his success thus far this minor-league season in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, it remains to be seen how much he can contribute outside of the occasional power numbers.

Harry Ford - Holding own at High-A level Ford has produced a .246 average and .824 OPS across 222 plate appearances over 46 games with High-A Everett thus far this season.

Impact The standout catching prospect hasn't quite performed to the same caliber as during his stints at the Rookie League and Single-A levels, but his numbers aren't far behind. Ford has generated 13 extra-base hits, 26 RBI, seven stolen bases, 38 runs and an impressive 47 walks, with the latter figure playing a sizable role in his elite .429 OPS. Ford has also impressive whittled his strikeout rate down to 18 percent despite the bump in competition, and while he almost certainly remains multiple seasons away from the big-league level, he's adapted quickly to each move up the organizational ladder thus far.
