Impact He had a five-appearance scoreless streak going, with six strikeouts over his last 4.1 innings over that stretch. Festa figures to return to the majors when the Mariners need a fresh right-handed reliever.

Matt Festa - Sent to Triple-A Festa was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday.
Tommy Milone - Contract selected ahead of nightcap Milone's contract was selected from Triple-A Tacoma ahead of Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Angels.
Impact Milone has gone five-plus innings in each of his last five starts for Triple-A Tacoma, logging a 1.00 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 22 strikeouts in 27 innings over that stretch. He is a candidate to work as the primary pitcher in the nightcap against the Angels, potentially following opener Penn Murfee, a righty.

Penn Murfee - Opening Game 2 vs. Halos Murfee will open Game 2 against the Angels in what will amount to a bullpen game Saturday evening, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Impact Justus Sheffield or Tommy Milone could work as the primary pitcher in this game. The right-handed Murfee has a 3.00 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 11 strikeouts in nine innings across nine appearances this month. He won't go deep enough to qualify for the win.

Justin Upton - Serving as DH in matinee Upton (head) is serving as the designated hitter and batting sixth in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Angels.
Impact Upton was hit in the head by a pitch during Friday's win over the Angels but is feeling better Saturday and will be in the lineup for the first half of the twin bill. He went 0-for-2 with a strikeout prior to exiting Friday's matchup.

Cal Raleigh - On bench for afternoon game Raleigh will sit for the first half of Saturday's doubleheader against the Angels.
Impact Raleigh was never going to start both halves of the twin bill despite the fact that he owns a .967 OPS in his last 12 games. Luis Torrens starts behind the plate in Game 1, but Raleigh should return for Game 2.
JUNE 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Justus Sheffield - Joins active roster as 27th man Sheffield was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma to serve as the 27th man during Saturday's doubleheader against the Angels.
Impact Sheffield made four appearances out of the Mariners' bullpen in April and tossed 4.2 scoreless innings. However, he's been working as a starter in Tacoma, where he posted an 8.51 ERA and 1.75 WHIP in 30.2 innings over eight starts. The southpaw should be available to pitch multiple innings during Saturday's twin bill before presumably returning to the minors.

Adam Frazier - Sitting in Game 1 Frazier will be on the bench for the afternoon portion of Saturday's doubleheader against the Angels.
Impact The Mariners figure to rest a good number of their regulars in one of the day's two games. Frazier's off days typically come against lefties, but the Angels will send out southpaws (Patrick Sandoval and Jose Suarez) in both halves of the doubleheader, so Frazier could have hit the bench in either contest. Abraham Toro will take over at second base in his absence.

Jesse Winker - Not starting afternoon game Winker will sit for the first half of Saturday's doubleheader against the Angels,.
Impact The Mariners will likely give many of their regulars a rest in one of the day's two games. The Angels are sending out southpaws (Patrick Sandoval and Jose Suarez) in both contests, so it likely didn't matter much which game Winker would sit for. Dylan Moore will take over in left field.

Roenis Elías - Makes rare appearance Friday Elias fired a scoreless ninth inning during which he allowed a hit in a win over the Angels on Friday.
Impact The veteran left-hander has been sparingly deployed since a May 27 callup from Triple-A Tacoma, with Friday's appearance only his fifth since that point. Elias' days as a true high-leverage option seem to be behind him, but he's put together a serviceable 4.05 ERA across his first six majors appearances since the 2019 season..

Taylor Trammell - On base thrice in win Trammell went 2-for-3 an RBI single, a walk and a run in a win over the Angels on Friday.
Impact Trammell made plenty of noise out of the bottom of the order, putting together one of four multi-hit efforts for the Mariners on the night. The 24-year-old has cooled off after a hot start to his first big-league stint of 2022, but he's mustered a .333 average (4-for-12) with a double, a home run and two RBI overall in his last five games.

Ty France - Plates three after one-game absence France went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Friday's 8-1 win over the Angels.
Impact France missed his first game of the year Thursday due to general soreness, but he didn't need to sit out another contest. He delivered a big hit in the fourth inning, smacking a bases-loaded double to extend the Mariners' lead to 7-0. The 27-year-old has gone 12-for-44 (.273) in his last 11 contests as he remains one of the M's most consistent hitters. France has a .320/.395/.490 slash line with 10 home runs, 44 RBI, 30 runs scored and 13 doubles through 64 games.

Julio Rodríguez - Racks up three hits Rodriguez went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 8-1 win over the Angels.
Impact Rodriguez had three singles in the contest, scoring after his first one in the first inning and plating Ty France with another in the third. Prior to Friday, Rodriguez had gone 4-for-30 (.133) in his last nine games, so it was encouraging to see him return to form a bit. The rookie has maintained a strong .267/.331/.421 with eight home runs, 29 RBI, 30 runs scored, 17 stolen bases, 11 doubles and a triple in 64 contests. He hasn't attempted a steal since June 5, but that can be partly attributed to his recent slump.

Cal Raleigh - Clubs eighth homer Raleigh went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored in Friday's 8-1 win over the Angels.
Impact Raleigh's second-inning homer was ultimately all the Mariners needed to get the win Friday. The catcher is now 11-for-45 (.244) with four homers, nine RBI and six runs through 13 games in June as he maintains the starting role behind the dish. He's up to a .180/.252/.432 slash line with eight homers, 18 RBI, 13 runs and four doubles across 123 plate appearances overall.
