The Seattle Mariners reinstated outfielder Dominic Canzone (groin) from the 10-day injured list on Thursday and optioned infielder Jason Vosler to Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move. The M's also recalled right-hander Eduard Bazardo from Tacoma and designated right-hander Jonathan Hernandez for assignment. Canzone isn't back in the starting lineup for Thursday's contest against the visiting Detroit Tigers, but the 26-year-old left-handed hitter should see occasional starts in right field for Seattle moving forward against right-handed pitching. Canzone missed almost a month with a strained right groin and was hitting just .211 (30-for-142) with seven home runs, 14 RBI and 18 runs scored in his second year in the big leagues before his injury. He's mostly an option for outfield depth in AL-only fantasy leagues.
Seattle Mariners outfielder Dominic Canzone (thigh) went 3-for-4 with a home run, an RBI, two runs scored, a walk and a strikeout in his latest minor-league rehab game on Sunday with Triple-A Tacoma. On Saturday and Sunday combined, Canzone went 5-for-8 with a double, two home runs, three RBI, four runs scored and a walk. It appears the 26-year-old is close to rejoining the big-league roster after playing in four straight rehab games. The Mariners can use all the outfield depth they can get in the majors, but Canzone will most likely serve as a platoon guy, at best, when he rejoins the M's. Before his injury, he was hitting .211/.289/.394 with a below-average .684 OPS, seven home runs, 14 RBI and 18 runs scored in 142 at-bats in 54 games in just his second year in the big leagues.
Seattle Mariners outfielder Dominic Canzone (groin) is expected to return from the 10-day injured list in mid-August. Manager Scott Servais said last weekend that Canzone is still a few weeks away from starting a minor-league rehab assignment, so the updated timeline makes sense. The 26-year-old outfielder has been sidelined since July 10 with a right-groin strain. The Mariners placed star center fielder Julio Rodriguez (ankle) on the 10-day IL on Tuesday, so Seattle is a bit short-handed in the outfield right now. Victor Robles is going to play regularly in center field, while Mitch Haniger and young outfielder Cade Marlowe figure to split playing time in right field. Canzone, who was hitting just .211 (30-for-142) with seven home runs and 14 RBI before his injury, won't be guaranteed regular playing time when he's ready to return in mid-August.
