Mitch Haniger - Plays outfield, homers for Tacoma Haniger (ankle) went 2-for-3 with an opposite-field solo home run and logged six innings in right field in his most recent rehab game from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.

Impact The veteran outfielder's presence on defense for a significant chunk of the game, which included a putout at second base, and his productive night at the plate were both highly encouraging signs. Haniger got the night off Friday, but he may need just one more rehab game Saturday before being deemed ready for return.

Jesse Winker - Snaps slump with double Winker went 1-for-3 with a double and a run in a loss to the Astros on Friday.

Impact Winker laced an eighth-inning two-bagger off Justin Verlander and was subsequently brought home by a Julio Rodriguez double for the Mariners' only run of the night. Prior to the hit, the slumping outfielder had been mired in an 0-for-13 slump since returning from a one-game absence due to an ankle injury.

Impact The rookie plated the Mariners' sole run of the night with an eighth-inning two-bagger off Justin Verlander that drove home Jesse Winker. Rodriguez has now reached safely in every start since June 24, a sample consisting of 24 games.

Robbie Ray - Chased in third inning Ray (8-8) gave up four earned runs on five hits and four walks while striking out three over 2.2 innings to take the loss in an 11-1 defeat to the Astros on Friday.

Impact Ray struggled with his control, issuing four free passes to a dangerous Astros lineup which made him pay with good situational hitting. Ray was chased in the third inning after a walk to Mauricio Dubon which raised his pitch count to 84. It has been a difficult first season in Seattle for the 2021 AL Cy Young Award winner. Ray continues to get plenty of punchouts with his power slider but his BB/9 has ticked up to 3.1 from 2.4 in 2021, while his LOB% has dropped to 77.5% from 90.1% last season. Ray is tentatively scheduled to start against the depleted Angels lineup on Thursday.

Luis Castillo - Shipped to Seattle The Mariners are acquiring Castillo from the Reds in exchange for four minor leaguers, including Noelvi Marte, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Castillo has been one of the game's best pitchers over the past couple months, logging a 2.38 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 72 strikeouts in 64.1 innings over his last 10 starts. He gets a massive upgrade in team context, given the change in ballpark, defense and run support. He most recently pitched Thursday, so he could slot into Seattle's rotation early next week in the Bronx. Castillo is under club control through the 2023 season.

Phillips Valdez - Claimed by Seattle Valdez was claimed off waivers by the Mariners on Friday.

Impact Valdez was designated for assignment by the Red Sox on Tuesday but will land a spot on Seattle's 40-man roster. He's posted a 4.41 ERA and 1.16 WHIP in 16.1 innings over 13 relief appearances in the majors this year but will report to Triple-A Tacoma for now.

Andrés Muñoz - Takes fourth loss Thursday Munoz (1-4) took the loss against the Astros on Thursday, allowing two earned runs on one hit, a hit batsman and a wild pitch over one inning. He struck out one.

Impact It was about as messy an outing as the final line implies, as Munoz created plenty of trouble for himself and failed to maintain the 2-2 tie he'd been entrusted with preserving. It was a rare hiccup for the flamethrowing right-hander, who'd last given up an earned run June 10, a span of 17 appearances.
