  • Lands on IL with hamstring strain
    The Mariners placed Polanco on the 10-day injured list Monday due to a right hamstring strain.

    Advice: Polanco was replaced by Josh Rojas in the sixth inning of Sunday's 9-5 win over the Nationals, with the former going 1-for-2 with an RBI before exiting. Polanco missed seven games earlier in May due to a right hamstring issue, and the 30-year-old will spend time on the injured list this time around. General manager Justin Hollander said Monday that while Polanco has not yet undergone an MRI, he is not expected to be sidelined long, per Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM. The Mariners selected Ryan Bliss from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move, and he will start at second base Monday and bat eighth against Astros southpaw Framber Valdez.

  • Jorge Polanco (hamstring) goes on IL for Mariners
    Mariners placed INF Jorge Polanco on the 10-day injured list with a strained right hamstring.

    Advice: Polanco aggravated the hamstring Sunday in his fifth appearance back after an eight-day absence due to the same injury. He’s hitting just .195/.293/.302 this season, so the break might be best for everyone. The Mariners will use Dylan Moore and Ryan Bliss at second base for now. The injury should also open up some playing time for Mitch Haniger, who has been sitting against righties with Moore seeing starts in the outfield. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:12 pm

  • Jose Miranda slugs moonshot homer to sink Royals
    Jose Miranda clobbered a two-run homer on Monday in the Twins’ victory over the Royals.

    Advice: Miranda kicked off the scoring in the third inning of Monday afternoon’s matinee affair at Target Field with a colossal 437-foot drive to left-center field off Royals starter Alec Marsh. It wound up being his lone hit in three at-bats before being lifted from the contest of a defensive replacement. The 25-year-old slugger has started to heat up lately, going deep three times in his last eight contests since May 19. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:41 pm

  • Austin Riley back in the lineup on Monday
    Austin Riley (side) is back in the lineup for Monday’s game against the Nationals.

    Advice: Riley missed 13 straight games with a side injury, but the Braves opted not to put him on the IL. With Ronald Acuna Jr. now out for the season, the Braves are certainly ecstatic to bring Riley back into the fold. Riley is hitting second in the lineup without Acuna there, as Ozzie Albies hits lead-off. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:18 am
     
  • Adds steal Sunday
    Freeman went 1-for-3 with a walk, a hit-by-pitch, one RBI and one stolen base in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Angels.

    Advice: Freeman is still hitting just .217 on the year, but he's made big strides by batting .302 (13-for-43) over his last 12 contests. He's hit leadoff during that entire span, though his time atop the order will likely end when Steven Kwan (hamstring) returns. Freeman has added a .667 OPS, seven steals, four home runs, 20 RBI and 29 runs scored across 184 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:17 am

  • Returns after two-week absence
    Riley (side) will start at third base and bat second in Monday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: Riley wound up missing just over two weeks (and 13 games) of action with a nagging left intercostal strain but is finally ready to rejoin Atlanta's lineup. He will be asked to carry even more of a load following Ronald Acuna's season-ending ACL tear. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:12 am
     
  • Jorge Polanco (hamstring) to undergo MRI on Monday
    Jorge Polanco will undergo an MRI exam on his injured left hamstring on Monday.

    Advice: Mariners’ manager Scott Servais told reporters after Sunday’s game that the club will have a better idea on his availability after that exam. The Mariners would probably be best served putting him on the injured list this time around and giving him the proper time to heal, but that’s not the path that they took while allowing him to sit out most of last week on a day-to-day basis. Expect the M’s to provide more information after Monday’s exam. Rotoworld Sunday, 2:56 pm

  • Jorge Polanco leaves with hamstring tightness
    Jorge Polanco left Sunday’s game against the Nationals with left hamstring tightness.

    Advice: Polanco was replaced by Josh Rojas with Rojas moving to third and Dylan Moore taking over at second. It’s been a recurring issue for Polanco in 2024 and throughout his career. An update on his availability should be available before Monday’s game against Houston in Seattle. Rotoworld Sunday, 12:40 pm

  • Leaves game with hamstring injury
    Polanco left Sunday's game against the Nationals due to right hamstring tightness.

    Advice: It's unclear when Polanco sustained the injury, but Josh Rojas came in at third base in the bottom of the sixth inning while Dylan Moore shifted to second base. Polanco missed seven games in May due to a right hamstring issue, and he is set to have an MRI on Monday, per Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM. Before leaving Sunday's game, Polanco went 1-for-2 with an RBI on an infielder's choice in the second inning. Rotowire.com Sunday, 12:30 pm
