Logan Gilbert - Hurls 6.2 scoreless frames Gilbert (2-0) recorded the win against Texas on Wednesday, tossing 6.2 scoreless innings during which he allowed six hits and struck out four.

Impact Only one of the six hits against Gilbert went for extra bases, and he finished his outing without issuing a walk for his second straight appearance. The right-hander went exactly five innings in his previous two starts, so his ability to pitch into the seventh and register a quality start Wednesday was a pleasant development for his fantasy managers. Gilbert has allowed only one earned run over his three outings this season, good for a tidy 0.54 ERA. He'll look to keep rolling in his next start, which is scheduled to take place in Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

Drew Steckenrider - Grabs second hold Steckenrider recorded his second hold in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday, firing a scoreless seventh inning in which he allowed a hit.

Impact Steckenrider tossed 10 of his 13 pitches for strikes in a sharp performance, one that netted his second hold in the last three appearances. The veteran right-hander is yet to be scored upon in five trips to the mound and has also contributed one save, and he should continue to see opportunities for both holds and ninth-inning work with the Mariners treating their closer situation as a relatively fluid one.

Jarred Kelenic - Launches second homer Tuesday Kelenic went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Impact Kelenic continued to show some encouraging signs at the plate Tuesday, as he's now 3-for-8 with a double, the homer and three runs overall in his last two games. The 22-year-old is still held in very high regard by the organization, but fantasy managers are undoubtedly hoping he'll continue to find his stride in the majors after slashing .181/.263/.354 with a 28.3 percent strikeout rate across his first 103 big-league games.

Drew Steckenrider and Diego Castillo should continue to split save chances for the Mariners in the meantime.

Impact The highly touted Rodriguez contributed to the win by singling in the seventh inning, stealing second to avoid what would have been a double play and scoring on an Abraham Toro home run. He later added a walk and second steal in the eighth to bring his season total to four-- one off the MLB lead. While the 21-year-old's bat has been cold, his wheels have been on full display as Rodriguez totaled 21 swipes in 74 minor league games last season.

Impact Getting the start at DH, Toro tacked on two valuable insurance runs with his seventh-inning long ball off reliever Spencer Patton. The utility man has started slow, going just 3-for-26 on the season, but should see an everyday role while Mitch Haniger is on the COVID-19 injured list.

Eugenio Suárez - Launches long ball Suarez went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in a 6-2 win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Impact Suarez took opposing start Jon Gray 415-feet deep to center in first inning to provide all the run support Robbie Ray would require. The 30-year-old didn't do anything productive in his other three at-bats as he's been feast or famine of late, going 4-for-21 with two doubles and two home runs over his last six games.

Impact Seattle jumped out to an early 3-0 lead after the first inning and Ray cruised from there, permitting single runs in the third and seventh innings and requiring just 85 pitches.

He's tentatively slated to pitch again this week on Sunday against Kansas City.
