Erik Swanson - Right back on track in return Swanson, who fired a scoreless eighth inning during which he recorded a strikeout in a win over the Athletics on Tuesday, has put together four perfect frames and 5:0 K:BB across f...
Impact Swanson has been even better than immediately prior to suffering an elbow injury in early May, as he'd given up his first two runs of the season in his most recent two appearances at that point. He's bounced right back with a quartet of spotless efforts after spending exactly a month out of major-league game action, giving manager Scott Servais a versatile valued option for all manner of relief scenarios.

Cal Raleigh - Showing improvement in June Raleigh, who went 1-for-1 with a double and two walks in a win over the Athletics on Tuesday, is hitting .245 with four doubles, four home runs, nine RBI, seven walks, a hit by pit...
Impact The young backstop still carries an abysmal .185 average and .274 on-base percentage, but he has a serviceable .429 slugging percentage thanks to 13 of his 22 hits having gone for extra bases. Raleigh had only one double-digit homer season in the minors -- he tallied 22 round trippers for High-A Modesto back in 2019 -- yet he's displayed a knack for consistently impactful contact by lacing at least 40.0 percent of his hits for extra bases in six professional stops, including his two big-league stints thus far.

Ken Giles - Logs first outing since '20 Giles, reinstated from the injured list Monday, fired a scoreless ninth inning during which he recorded a strikeout in a win over the Athletics on Tuesday.
Impact The veteran right-hander's return to the majors was a long time coming, as Tuesday's appearance marked his first regular-season outing since mid-September 2020 due to injuries. Giles got through his frame on a relatively efficient 15 pitches, 11 which found the strike zone. The 8-2 lead the Mariners enjoyed at the time of Giles' entry represented the ideal low-leverage spot to reintroduce him to game action, and he's likely to continue seeing most of his opportunities under those conditions for the time being.

Ty France - Racks up three hits France went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Athletics.
Impact France sparked the Mariners' rally with an RBI single in the seventh inning. He's gone 7-for-20 (.350) with four RBI in his last five games. The 27-year-old is up to a .320/.395/.483 slash line with 10 home runs, 45 RBI, 32 runs scored and 14 doubles through 68 contests as he continues to provide well-rounded offense.
JUNE 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Taylor Trammell - Goes yard in win Trammell went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Athletics.
Impact Trammell opened the scoring Tuesday with a third-inning solo shot. The outfielder continues to hit rather inconsistently -- he's hasn't hit safely in consecutive games since a four-game streak from May 31 to June 3. He's posted a .246/.338/.508 slash line with three homers, eight RBI, 12 runs scored and a stolen base across 72 plate appearances this year, and he should remain in the lineup against most right-handed pitchers.
JUNE 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Eugenio Suárez - Pops homer in Tuesday's win Suarez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Athletics.
Impact Suarez entered Tuesday on an 0-for-11 skid. It took him until the seventh inning to put an end to that slump, when he hit the Mariners' third consecutive homer to establish a 7-0 lead. The third baseman continues to supply solid power with 13 homers and a .438 slugging percentage through 68 contests. He's added 36 RBI, 33 runs scored, 12 doubles and a .227 batting average, and it doesn't appear that his recent slump will lead to reduced playing time.
JUNE 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jesse Winker - Clubs homer in win Winker went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double and two RBI in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Athletics.
Impact Winker contributed an RBI double in the sixth inning and a solo shot in the seventh as the Mariners took control of the game. The outfielder had gone just 1-for-10 across his last five contests before Tuesday's two-hit effort. The homer was his third in June and his fifth of the season to go with a .214/.332/.319 slash line, 26 RBI, 21 runs scored and 10 doubles in 67 games. With Dylan Moore and Justin Upton challenging for playing time, Winker could find himself on the bench against southpaws more frequently going forward -- he sat out against two of the three lefties the Mariners faced over the weekend against the Angels.
JUNE 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Julio Rodríguez - Homers in three-hit effort Rodriguez went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Athletics.
Impact Rodriguez sparked a run of back-to-back-to-back jacks from the Mariners in the seventh inning, which put the game comfortably in their control. This was the rookie outfielder's third multi-hit effort in his last five games, a span in which he's gone 9-for-21 (.429). Overall, he's slashing .272/.335/.436 with nine homers, 32 RBI, 32 runs scored and 18 stolen bases in 68 contests.
JUNE 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Marco Gonzales - Earns win over A's Gonzales (4-7) allowed two runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out two in seven innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Athletics.
Impact Gonzales received ample support from the Mariners' offense, which provided four home runs. The southpaw's one mistake was a two-run homer to Nick Allen in the seventh inning. With quality starts in six of his last eight outings, Gonzales has provided steady pitching for the Mariners. He has a 3.33 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 42:27 K:BB across 75.2 innings overall. He's projected for a road start versus the Angels this weekend.

Dylan Moore - Not starting Tuesday Moore is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game at Oakland, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.
Impact Moore started the past three games but will head to the bench Tuesday while mired in a 1-for-16 slump. The 29-year-old should continue to see regular playing time in a utility role, but his .185/.340/.358 slash line doesn't provided much value for fantasy managers.

Noelvi Marte - Struggling for AquaSox Marte owns a .234/.329/.365 slash line with 17 extra-base hits and 23 RBI across 20 games at High-A Everett this season.
Impact The precocious 20-year-old has hit a bit of a speed bump this season after an impressive showing over a modest eight-game stint with High-A Everett at the tail end of the 2021 minor-league campaign. Marte has seen a slight bump in strikeout rate to 25.5 percent from his 22.2 percent figure at Modesto last season, and Brent Stecker of 710 ESPN Seattle reports Marte's average has been under .250 since May 25.

Emerson Hancock - Impressing at Double-A Hancock has a 1-2 record, 2.45 ERA and 0.95 WHIP across 22 innings in six starts for Double-A Arkansas this season.
Impact Brent Stecker of 710 ESPN Seattle reports the organization is being careful with Hancock's workload after shoulder fatigue led to the 2020 first-round pick being shut down twice by the Travelers last season. Hancock has logged just 22 innings across his six starts, with his last two outings marking the first couple times he's reached the five-inning threshold.
JUNE 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Brash - Showing improvement at Tacoma Brash has gone 11 straight relief outings of an inning apiece at Triple-A Tacoma without allowing an earned run, Brent Stecker of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.
Impact Brash was knocked around for five earned runs over one inning by Sacramento back on May 22, but he began his current scoreless streak in his next outing May 25. The promising right-hander opened the season as the Mariners' fifth starter before control issues lead to a May 5 demotion to Tacoma, where he's transitioned to the bullpen after the team decided it would be the role he'd be best suited for this season. Stecker notes Brash hasn't allowed so much as a single walk in 10 of the aforementioned 11 appearances, including six straight.

Jarred Kelenic - Recently dealt with hammy strain Kelenic recently missed five days at Triple-A Tacoma with a hamstring strain, but he returned to action Thursday, Brent Stecker of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.
Impact The 22-year-old has cooled off at the plate after a recent hot streak, hitting just .150 (3-for-20) over his last six games. Stecker notes Kelenic continues to struggle with consistent contact despite facing a lower level of competition in Tacoma, as he's struck out 34 times in 24 games with the Rainiers. Consequently, it may take an improvement in that area over an extended stretch before Kelenic returns to the big-league club.

Justus Sheffield - Returns to Triple-A The Mariners optioned Sheffield to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.
Impact Sheffield was returned to the minors one day after Seattle designated him as its 27th man for a doubleheader with the Angels. He appeared in the second game of Saturday's twin bill, striking out one and allowing one hit and no walks over two scoreless frames in relief.
