Jarred Kelenic - Three hits in win over Cleveland Kelenic went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Guardians.
Impact All three hits were singles, but they were far from cheap and included an opposite-field laser that left his bat at 108 mph. Kelenic is still looking for his first home run of 2023, but the 23-year-old does have two doubles and is batting .304 (7-for-23) through seven games with two steals, a run and an RBI.

Paul Sewald - Notches second save Sewald gave up a hit and a walk while striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning Saturday to record his second save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Guardians.
Impact The right-hander's velocity remains down a bit from last season -- his fastball topped out at 92.2 mph, after averaging 92.6 mph in 2022 -- but Sewald was able to get the job done as he relied heavily on his sweeper. He has a win and two saves through his first five appearances, but the 32-year-old's 4:3 K:BB in five innings reflects the fact that he may not be fully in form yet.

Marco Gonzales - Falls short of quality start Gonzales (1-0) picked up the win Saturday, allowing one run on six hits and three walks over 5.2 innings in a 3-2 victory over the Guardians. He struck out five.
Impact The southpaw wasn't quite efficient enough to record a quality start, tossing 62 of 93 pitches for strikes, but it was still a big improvement on his first outing of the season. Gonzales will look to build on this performance in his next start, likely to come next weekend at home against the Rockies.

J.P. Crawford - Timely hitting in win Crawford went 2-for-4 with two RBI from a pair of run-scoring doubles and two runs in a win over the Guardians on Friday.
Impact The veteran shortstop made plenty of noise out of the No. 9 spot in the order, belting RBI two-baggers in both the fifth and sixth innings to plate Cooper Hummel and Jared Kelenic, respectively. The 28-year-old opened the season with just one hit in his first 14 plate appearances, but he's now strung together a trio of two-hit efforts in the last four contests.

Penn Murfee - Records win Friday Murfee (1-1) recorded the win Friday against the Guardians, firing a scoreless fifth inning during which he issued a walk.
Impact Murfee needed just 11 pitches, seven which found the strike zone, to get through his one frame, following a four-inning start from Logan Gilbert. The right-hander has been busy early in the new season, with Friday's outing already marking his fifth appearance of the campaign. Murfee's ERA remains unblemished, and the one hit he allowed to the Guardians in his first outing of the season March 31 is the only one he's conceded through 4.1 frames.

Paul Sewald - Bounces back with first save Sewald picked up the save in Friday's 5-3 win over the Guardians, striking out one over a perfect ninth inning.
Impact After giving up two runs to the Angels in his last outing, Sewald bounced back with his second perfect inning of the campaign and notched his first save of the season. Through four innings, the left-hander has struck out three and walked two, but he figures to continue sharing closing duties with Andres Munoz, who pitched the eighth inning Friday.

Logan Gilbert - Strikes out six in no decision Gilbert did not factor into the decision Friday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks over four innings in a 5-3 win over the Guardians. He struck out six.
Impact Gilbert allowed one run in three of his four innings, but he salvaged his outing with six strikeouts and was let off the hook for the loss as Seattle scored the final five runs of the contest. Across his first two starts, the right-hander has given up four runs across 10 innings and sports a strong 13:3 K:BB.
