The Seattle Mariners have outrighted infielder/outfielder Miles Mastrobuoni to Triple-A Tacoma after he cleared waivers. Designated for assignment last week, Mastrobuoni's career statistics include a .230 batting average and 22 stolen bases across five seasons. At 30, he does not have enough service time to reject the assignment. His performance this season has been limited due to a calf strain suffered in March during the World Baseball Classic, further complicating his position amidst the Mariners' injury struggles.

By the Numbers
  • Mastrobuoni's career batting line stands at .230/.295/.273.
  • He has stolen 22 bases across his big league career.
State of Play
  • The Mariners are experiencing injuries to position players Brendan Donovan and Will Wilson.
  • Mastrobuoni may be considered for a call-up if injuries continue to affect the roster.
What's Next

If Mastrobuoni remains off the 40-man roster, he will be eligible for minor league free agency at season's end. Seattle may face further roster decisions based on injuries or performance needs moving forward.

Bottom Line

Mastrobuoni's reassignment reflects the Mariners' ongoing roster management challenges amid injuries. While he remains in the organization, his future will hinge on roster needs and potential call-ups as the season progresses.
