Mariners' Health Boost: Lineup Shakeup, Pitching Dilemmas
Description
The Seattle Mariners, currently at 18-20, are set to face the Chicago White Sox in a three-game series starting Friday. Key players like Brendan Donovan, Cal Raleigh, and Bryce Miller are nearing returns, potentially shaking up the lineup. Donovan, who went 1-3 with a double and two walks in a rehab game, is expected to join the team soon. Raleigh, recovering from right side soreness, is ready to reclaim his starting catcher spot. Miller, after throwing 61 pitches in a minor league outing, is also poised for action. These returns will impact the roster, allowing for adjustments like dropping Jhonny Pereda, slotting Donovan at third base, and freeing up Leo Rivas for a utility infielder role. On the pitching front, Millers return presents options such as adding him to the rotation, bullpen, or even tinkering with Luis Castillos role. Victor Robles, also rehabbing, could send Connor Joe down when cleared. With this health boost, the Mariners aim to build momentum before a tougher schedule.
