Alejandro Kirk - Gets Monday offKirk is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Red Sox.

ImpactEven though he produced five hits over his two starts this past weekend against the Mariners, Kirk will end up sitting for the second time in three days. Kirk still appears to be the Blue Jays' nominal No. 1 catcher, but Toronto remains incentivized to keep backup Danny Jansen involved due to Jansen's superior work on the defensive end.

Diego Castillo - Moved off 40-man rosterThe Mariners outrighted Castillo to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday after he cleared waivers.

ImpactAfter he had been one of Seattle's top relievers since he was acquired from the Rays at the 2021 trade deadline, Castillo struggled mightily over the first month of the 2023 campaign, logging a 6.23 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 7:7 K:BB in 8.2 innings before he was optioned to Triple-A on Saturday. Because Castillo is due $2.95 million in 2023 and has one more year of arbitration remaining, none of MLB's other 29 organizations were willing to put in a waiver claim for the 29-year-old right-hander. Though he no longer possesses a spot on the 40-man roster, Castillo could end up getting another look with the big club this season if he's able to right the ship at Tacoma.

Bryce Miller - Set to debut TuesdayMiller will be called up from Double-A Arkansas to make his major-league debut Tuesday against the Athletics, Joe Doyle of FutureStarsSeries.com reports.

ImpactMiller has struggled overall this season with Arkansas in posting a 6.41 ERA over his first four starts. His last outing was his best, though, as he allowed just one hit and one run while fanning five over five innings. Miller had a breakout 2022 campaign which saw him hold a 3.16 ERA and 163:46 K:BB over 133.2 innings. It's unclear whether this will be just a spot start or he could stick around a while, but there should theoretically be an opening with Robbie Ray (elbow) done for the season.

Paul Sewald - Gets second win SundaySewald (2-0) recorded the win in an extra-inning victory over the Blue Jays on Sunday, firing a scoreless ninth inning during which he allowed a hit and a walk.

ImpactTasked with preserving an 8-8 tie when he entered in the ninth, Sewald successfully got the Mariners to extra innings despite having to work around some trouble. The right-hander was pitching on consecutive days for the first time since April 7-8, and he's essentially picked up where he left off during his successful 2022 -- Sewald has seven saves in addition to his two wins, and Sunday's scoreless effort helped lower his ERA back down to an even 3.00 after he'd recently allowed an earned run apiece in back-to-back outings on April 22 and Tuesday.

Teoscar Hernández - Slugs seventh homer SundayHernandez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, a hit-by-pitch and an additional run scored in an extra-inning win over the Blue Jays on Sunday.

ImpactHernandez launched one of four Mariners homers against his old squad in the high-scoring slugfest. The veteran's 371-foot shot to right center in the sixth inning began Seattle's comeback from an 8-4 deficit and snapped an 0-for-16 funk he'd been mired in over the previous four games, a span in which he'd struck out 11 times.
