Homers, drives in three Trammell went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Athletics.
Impact Trammell's two-run blast put the Mariners ahead briefly in the third inning. He also drew a bases-loaded walk to tie the game at 3-3 in the fourth. Over four games since he was activated from the injured list following a hand injury, he's gone 2-for-8 with two homers, seven RBI, two walks and three strikeouts. Trammell continues to serve as a reserve option, primarily seeing time in left field when he plays, but Jarred Kelenic is likely to see most of the games there once Julio Rodriguez gets back into center field.

Impact Julio Rodriguez is getting another start at designated hitter as he's eased into things following a minor back issue. It has resulted in Jarred Kelenic sliding over to center field and Trammel getting a start in left.

Belts grand slam in win Trammell, just activated from the injured list earlier in the day, went 1-for-4 with a grand slam and a walk in an extra-inning win over the Blue Jays on Sunday.
Impact Trammell got Seattle's offensive fireworks started with his 359-foot laser in the first with the trio of Jarred Kelenic, Cal Raleigh and Teoscar Hernandez aboard. Trammell's first at-bat of 2023 clearly couldn't have gone any better, but it bears mentioning his trademark troubles making consistent contact at the big-league level surfaced in later in the game -- he struck out in two other plate appearances.

Mariners reinstate OF Taylor Trammell from injured list The Seattle Mariners reinstated outfielder Taylor Trammell from the 10-day injured list on Sunday.
APRIL 30, 2023 • SACBEE.COM
Activated off injured list Trammell (hand) was activated off the 10-day injured list by Seattle on Sunday, Corey Brock of The Athletic reports.
Impact Trammell has missed the first month of the season while recovering from a hand injury he suffered while working out in the offseason. The 25-year-old hit well in his rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma with a .345 average along with two homers and three stolen bases. Trammell likely will rotate in the outfield now that he's back in Seattle while getting starts mostly in the corner-outfield spots.

Hitting well in rehab assignment Trammell (hand) is hitting .357 (5-for-14) with a double, an RBI, two walks, two stolen bases, a hit-by-pitch and four runs across the first four games of his rehab assignment at T...
Impact Trammell has hit safely in each game thus far and has played a full game in the outfield on three of those occasions. However, given the Mariners outfield is essentially at full health at the moment and Trammell has had trouble making consistent contact against big-league arms during his stints in Seattle the last two seasons, he could remain with the Rainiers once he's officially activated in order to continue logging regular at-bats.

Begins rehab assignment Trammell (hand) went 1-for-5 with a double in Triple-A Tacoma's win over El Paso on Tuesday.
Impact Making his season debut after suffering a broken hamate bone in his right hand, Trammell played a full nine innings in center field. The 25-year-old, who hit under .200 in each of his first two big-league stints in 2021 and 2022, may remain with the Rainiers once his recovery is deemed complete.

Playing for Tacoma on Tuesday Trammell (hand) is in the lineup for Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday, Mike Curto of the Tacoma Rainiers reports.
Impact It's the first time that Trammell is lining up for the Rainiers as he rehabs from a broken hamate bone in his right hand. The outfielder will likely need a full rehab assignment before being ready to return to the Mariners, and when healthy Seattle will have to make a roster decision involving the 25-year-old.

Closing in on rehab games Trammell (hand) is close to returning to Triple-A Tacoma for rehab games, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Impact Trammell had surgery in the middle of February to repair a broken hamate bone in his right hand and was unable to participate in the Cactus League. He's currently training in Arizona in extending spring training, and he will soon report to the minors to begin what will likely be a lengthy rehab assignment for the 25-year-old.

To play in extended spring Trammel (hand) will begin playing in extended spring training games Monday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Impact Trammel had surgery in mid-February to repair a broken hamate bone in his right hand. He'll eventually go out on a rehab assignment and is tracking toward a late-April return.

Shifts to injured list Trammell (hand) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.
Impact According to Curtis Crabtree of FOX 13 Seattle, manager Scott Servais said Thursday that Trammell is 2-to-3 weeks away from starting a rehab assignment, putting the outfielder on track to return in late April. Trammell won't be guaranteed a spot on the MLB roster once healthy with the offseason additions of Teoscar Hernandez, AJ Pollock and Cooper Hummel providing plenty of depth in the outfield.

Likely ready by mid-April Trammell (hand) has continued to make good progress in his recovery from being hit by a pitch during a pre-spring training workout and is considered "probably a couple weeks away"...
Impact Trammell has made seemingly uninterrupted progress during his near-two-month recovery, and it appears he won't miss many regular-season games if Servais' prognosis is correct. However, the 25-year-old outfielder could potentially begin the season at Triple-A Tacoma, where he posted a .333 average and .983 OPS in 98 plate appearances in 2022.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Progressing in recovery Trammell (hand) is making solid progress in his recovery from February hamate bone surgery, the team's official site reports.
Impact Manager Scott Servais notes Trammell is "probably three weeks away, something like that," from being able to swing a bat. The Mariners' skipper noted Trammell is focused on ensuring he regains his strength in both the wrist and hand before he gets more aggressive in his activity level. If he continues recovering at a similar pace and without setbacks, Trammell could conceivably make his season debut before the end of April.

Mariners OF Trammell out 6-7 weeks with broken hand
Seattle Mariners outfielder Taylor Trammell will have surgery on his broken right hand and is expected to need six to seven weeks to recoverFEBRUARY 16, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Undergoing hamate bone surgery Trammell is headed for surgery to repair a broken hamate bone in his right hand, Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times reports.
Impact The injury occured when the outfielder was struck in the hand during a late offseason workout. The expectation is that Trammell will require around six or seven weeks of recovery time, which is basically the full range of spring training. He was probably on the outside looking in for an Opening Day roster spot this season with the Mariners, but this is still a fairly significant blow to the 25-year-old's overall standing within the organization. He now seems certain to spend a good chunk of the first half of 2023 in the minor leagues.

Impact Seattle added Trammell to the 28-man active roster after manager Scott Servais confirmed that Jesse Winker (neck) will be placed on the 10-day injured list due to a disc issue. Even though Winker isn't expected to return for the postseason, Trammell won't be a lock for a spot on Seattle's roster for the wild-card series with Toronto. Julio Rodriguez, Mitch Haniger, Jarred Kelenic and Dylan Moore are all likely ahead of Trammell in the pecking order for playing time in the outfield.

Sent to minors Trammell was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.
Impact The 25-year-old was recalled from Tacoma on Friday and will head back to the minors after he struck out in both his plate appearances Sunday versus Kansas City. Trammell has a .204/.295/.418 slash line with four home runs and 10 RBI in 42 big-league games this season.

Mariners rookie OF Rodriguez on 10-day IL with back strain
Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez, a leading candidate for the AL Rookie of the Year award, has been put on the 10-day injured list because of a lower back strainSEPTEMBER 24, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Back in big leagues Trammell was recalled by the Mariners on Friday.
Impact Trammell was sent down in favor of Jarred Kelenic on Wednesday but returns just two days later with Julio Rodriguez (back) landing on the injured list. The fact that Kelenic took Trammell's place on the roster suggests that it's the former who could be the primary beneficiary of Rodriguez's absence, but Trammell could still earn the occasional start.
