Matt Koch - Outrighted to minorsThe Mariners outrighted Koch to Triple-A Tacoma after he cleared waivers Thursday.

Danny Young - Gets first call to big leaguesThe Mariners selected Young's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.
ImpactYoung, who signed with the Mariners on a minor-league deal in February following prior stops in the Toronto and Cleveland organizations, will receive his first promotion to the big leagues. The 27-year-old lefty earned a look in Seattle after posting a 15:2 K:BB through nine innings at Triple-A Tacoma. He gave up seven earned runs during his time with Tacoma, though none came via the long ball.

Matt Festa - Sidelined with elbow tendinitisThe Mariners placed Festa on the 15-day injured list Thursday with right elbow tendinitis.
ImpactFesta presumably picked up the injury following his most recent relief appearance against the Astros on Tuesday, when he gave up a home run for the third consecutive outing. With 20 punchouts in 12 innings this season, Festa has made bats miss at a prolific rate, but an inability to keep the ball in the yard -- he's allowed five home runs -- has made his ratios toxic (5.25 ERA, 1.42 WHIP).

Nick Margevicius - Dropped from 40-man rosterThe Mariners designated Margevicius for assignment Thursday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
ImpactMargevicius' removal from the 40-man roster clears a spot for Danny Young, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Tacoma. After failing to break camp with the big club, Margevicius had been a member of the Tacoma rotation, posting a 12.75 ERA and 2.58 WHIP across 12 innings through four starts.
