Impact Trammell was initially left out of Seattle's starting nine, but the team issued an update prior to first pitch. He's just 3-for-20 with a homer and two RBI in his last seven contests.

Starting in left field after all Trammell is starting in left field and will bat ninth Monday night against the Orioles.
Out of Monday's lineup Trammell isn't in Monday's lineup against the Orioles.
Impact Trammell will be out of the lineup for a second straight game after he went 1-for-12 with a home run, two runs, two walks, seven strikeouts and a stolen base across his last five contests. Sam Haggerty will take over in left field while Dylan Moore starts at second base.

Steals base in win Trammell walked in his only plate appearance Sunday and ended up successfully stealing his second base of the season in a 2-0 win over the Angels.
Impact Trammell entered the game in the eighth inning as a pinch hitter for Jose Marmolejos and battled for eight pitches before finally drawing a walk. He ended up taking second base but was stranded after Dylan Moore struck out to end the inning. The 23-year-old has struggled mightily so far during his rookie season, slashing .162/.271/.351 with four home runs, 11 RBI, 10 runs scored and a 10:37 BB:K.

Sits again Sunday Trammell is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.
Impact Trammell will sit for the second time in three games while manager Scott Servais trots out a starting outfield of Kyle Lewis, Sam Haggerty and Jose Marmolejos. Mitch Haniger -- who is serving as a designated hitter Sunday -- will typically occupy one of the corner-outfield spots while Lewis mans center, so Trammell looks like he'll be vying for time at the remaining corner spot with Marmolejos, Haggerty and Dylan Moore for any given game. After striking out in all four of his at-bats Saturday, Trammell is now sitting on a .162/.262/.351 slash line for the season. He could be in danger of a demotion when the minor-league season gets underway during the upcoming week.

Not in Friday's lineup Trammell will not start Friday's game against the Angels.
Impact Even with Kyle Lewis back from his knee injury, Trammell has remained in a fairly regular role. Friday marks Lewis' 10th game back on the roster, with Trammell sitting for just the third time in that stretch. Lewis will be the center fielder Friday, with Sam Haggerty starting in left.

Cracks fourth homer Trammell went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's win over the Astros.
Impact Trammell accounted for all of the scoring in Seattle's 1-0 victory with his third-inning homer off Luis Garcia. It may not be enough to salvage his roster spot. The 23-year-old is still batting .157 with a .620 OPS after Thursday's homer, and with the minor-league season set to begin soon, it would not be a surprise to see Trammell head back to the farm for continued development.

Out again versus southpaw Trammell is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact With Seattle back at full strength in the outfield following Kyle Lewis' recent return from the injured list, Trammell looks to be less of an everyday player and more of a strong-side platoon man in the corner outfield. The lefty-hitting Trammell will sit for the second time in the series against a left-handed pitcher with southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez on the mound for Boston. Meanwhile, Sam Haggerty will be rewarded with a start in place of Trammell after he slugged a home run and stole a base as part of a three-hit performance Saturday.

Plates two in win Trammell went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, two RBI and a run scored in Monday's 4-3 win over the Dodgers.
Impact Trammell took Dustin May deep to center field in the second to extend the Mariners' lead to 3-0. He later roped an RBI double down the right-field line in the fourth to give his team a 4-2 cushion. Monday was only his second multi-hit performance of the season, and it upped Trammell's slash line to .184/.298/.408 with three home runs, nine RBI and eight runs scored. The 23-year-old rookie is still having some growing pains at the plate with 23 strikeouts through his first 49 at-bats of the season.

Goes yard in win Trammell went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 8-6 win over the Twins.
Impact Trammell made a big contribution to the Mariners' comeback, hitting his blast off Twins starter Matt Shoemaker in the sixth inning to cut the deficit to two runs. The homer was his second of the year, and he's added seven RBI, six runs scored and seven walks in eight games. The rookie outfielder sports a poor .185/.353/.444 slash line, in part due to 16 strikeouts in 34 plate appearances.

Partly offsetting whiffs with walks Trammell, who hit his first major-league home run Saturday against the Twins, has partly countered his early propensity for strikeouts with a 24.1 percent walk rate in 29 plate app...
Impact In addition to his solo homer Saturday, Trammell also drew his seventh walk of the season, which helped push his on-base percentage to a solid .345 entering Sunday's action. The rookie has struck out 14 times over his first 29 plate appearances as well, however, which has been a major factor in his .136 average. Trammell's current 48.3 percent strikeout rate and 36.4 percent contact rate will naturally both normalize to a degree over time, considering he demonstrated a solid eye at plate during his minor-league career by posting strikeout rates of 22.8 percent or lower in six of seven stops.
