Jarred Kelenic - Sits versus southpaw Kelenic is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Impact Kelenic will put his four-game hitting streak on hold while the Mariners optimize their lineup versus southpaw Drew Smyly by scaling back the number of left-handed hitters. Along with Kelenic and Kolten Wong will head to the bench, opening up spots for Cooper Hummel and Sam Haggerty.

Kolten Wong - Sits against southpaw Wong is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Impact The switch-hitting Sam Haggerty will get the nod at the keystone while the lefty-hitting Wong heads to the bench with southpaw Drew Smyly on the mound for Chicago. Wong started in each of the previous four contests, going 1-for-14 with two walks and an RBI.

Cal Raleigh - Taking seat Monday Raleigh is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Impact Raleigh started each of the Mariners' last five games at either catcher or designated hitter, going 4-for-19 with a home run, four walks and three RBI. He'll get the night off Monday while Tom Murphy receives a turn behind the plate and Cooper Hummel serves as Seattle's DH.

Andrés Muñoz - Could start throwing this week Munoz (shoulder) told reporters Monday that he could start throwing as soon as Tuesday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Munoz was placed on the 15-day injured list before Sunday's game with a right deltoid sprain. The right-hander mentioned that he has struggled to bounce back after outings and that this is more precautionary than significant injury. The Mariners will take caution with their best reliever, but it does sound like he'll be back in the late innings for Seattle shortly after he's eligible to come off the injured list.

José Rodríguez - Summoned to majors The Mariners selected Rodriguez's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Monday.

Impact Rodriguez had thrown five scoreless innings for Tacoma to earn the promotion. He last appeared in the majors in 2020.

J.B. Bukauskas - Optioned to Triple-A Bukauskas was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma by the Mariners on Monday.

Impact Bukauskas' stint in the majors lasted one day as he was knocked around in his lone appearance. Jose Rodriguez is taking his spot in the bullpen.

Nick Solak - Designated for assignment Solak was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Monday.

Impact Solak was acquired from the Reds shortly after Opening Day after they had designated him for assignment. He'll now go through the waiver process again. Solak is 1-for-13 in four games at Triple-A Tacoma in 2023.

Penn Murfee - Takes second loss Sunday Murfee (1-2) was charged with the loss in extra innings against the Guardians on Sunday, allowing two runs (one earned) on two walks over one-third of an inning.

Impact Murfee entered with a 6-5 lead in the 12th inning, and after intentionally walking Jose Ramirez, the reliever advanced inning-opening runner Amed Rosario to third on an error during a pickoff attempt. That helped set up RBI groundouts by Josh Naylor and Josh Bell that allowed the tying and winning runs to cross the plate. Murfee has already logged seven appearances in the new season, and Sunday's earned run was the first he'd allowed over five innings.

Teoscar Hernández - Productive at plate Sunday Hernandez went 2-for-6 with an RBI single, a double, a stolen base and a run in an extra-innings loss to the Guardians on Sunday.

Impact The slugger showed off some smaller-ball tendencies in Sunday's defeat, although he added his fourth extra-base hit of the season with his two-bagger. Perhaps his second multi-hit effort of the season will serve as a launchpad of sorts at the plate for Hernandez, who'd come in having gone just 5-for-32 with 12 strikeouts across his first nine games, albeit with a pair of homers and four RBI.

APRIL 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sam Haggerty - Productive as pinch hitter Haggerty entered Sunday's extra-innings loss to the Guardians as a pinch hitter in the 11th inning, drawing a walk and recording a stolen base.

Impact The versatile utility man made good use of his one plate appearance, reaching safely for the third straight game in the process. Haggerty has logged just 13 plate appearances overall in his first six games, but he's now swiped a pair of bases in that brief sample after recording a career-high 13 across 201 plate appearances in 2022.

APRIL 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Julio Rodríguez - Records fourth steal Rodriguez went 1-for-6 with a stolen base and a run in an extra-innings loss to the Guardians on Sunday.

Impact Rodriguez extended his hitting streak to three games and reached safely for the ninth straight contest overall thanks to his 10th-inning infield single, which he followed up with his fourth steal of the campaign. The 22-year-old is already contributing the type of diverse stat line that he set expectations for during his AL Rookie of the Year campaign in 2022, knocking four doubles and two home runs in addition to his success on the base paths.

Andrés Muñoz is on the injured list. What does it mean for the Mariners' bullpen? The Muñoz injury has had a ripple effect on the bullpen. "A lot of guys are going to get opportunities, and we need them to step up.”

Cal Raleigh - Belts first homer Raleigh went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run, a walk and an additional run in an extra-innings loss to the Guardians on Sunday.

Impact Raleigh's 375-foot shot to right with Ty France aboard in the second inning opened the scoring on the afternoon. The power-hitting backstop has already laced four of his eight hits for extra bases, and Sunday's homer helped him snap a brief 1-for-13 skid that had encompassed his previous three games.

MLB power rankings: Rays for real? Time for concern with Cardinals, Phillies?

George Kirby - Solid in no-decision Kirby did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing one run on five hits over six innings in a 6-7 loss to the Mariners. He struck out four.

Impact Kirby bounced back in his second start, allowing only one run on a Jose Ramirez sacrifice fly in the first inning. The 25-year-old worked through a tough sixth inning but escaped unharmed after striking out the last two batters in the frame. Kirby was on track for the win, but the Guardians would rally to tie the game in the ninth before completing the comeback on a walkoff hit from Josh Bell in the 12th. Kirby owns a 4.34 ERA and 9:1 K:BB over 10.1 innings pitched, and he is tentatively scheduled to return to the mound in the upcoming series with the Cardinals next week.
