Mitch Garver's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Seattle Mariners catcher Mitch Garver (wrist) is back in the starting lineup on Thursday, serving as the designated hitter and batting second against the visiting Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Corbin Burnes. Garver was held out of the starting lineup the last two games due to wrist soreness, but he entered Wednesday's contest as a pinch-hitter and will now return to the starting lineup. The 33-year-old veteran backstop mostly serves in the DH role for Seattle as the backup to starting catcher Cal Raleigh. He has hit just .176 (41-for-233) in his first year with the M's, but he's useful in two-catcher leagues due to his power (10 home runs). Even in the two-hole in his return to action on the Fourth of July, Garver isn't very attractive for DFS managers while going up against Burnes. Garver has never faced Burnes in his career.

Seattle Mariners catcher Mitch Garver (wrist) remains out of the team's starting lineup on Wednesday versus the visiting Baltimore Orioles. Cal Raleigh is doing the catching and is batting third, while Jorge Polanco serves as the designated hitter and bats sixth against Orioles right-hander Dean Kremer, who will be making his first start since coming off the injured list. Dylan Moore is at the keystone and is hitting in the nine-hole for the M's. Garver was hit by a pitch on his right wrist on Sunday against the Minnesota Twins and will miss a second straight game as a result. The 33-year-old backstop remains day-to-day. He's hitting a lowly .172 (40-for-232) in 2024 but has also provided fantasy managers in deeper leagues with 10 home runs and 31 RBI in his first year in the Pacific Northwest.

Seattle Mariners catcher Mitch Garver (wrist) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The veteran slugger will take a seat after getting hit by a pitch in the hand during Sunday's contest. Currently, Garver is considered as day-to-day with a right wrist contusion. In the meantime, Cal Raleigh will do the catching while Mitch Haniger serves as the designated hitter during Tuesday's contest.
