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

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger smacked a grand slam in Friday's 6-1 win over the Diamondbacks. It was his lone hit on the day, but it was a big one that broke the game open. It came after starter Zac Gallen left the game and with Mariners up just 2-1. It was the 33-year-old's fourth home run of the year and he's now up to 18 RBI, although the batting average sits at just .244. There was hope the veteran would return to some semblance of his 2021 form with a return to Seattle but it hasn't come to fruition to this point. The good thing is it's a long season and so far he's still healthy. Regardless, until he shows signs of a breakout he's probably only worth a roster spot in deeper leagues.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer, two runs and a walk in Thursday's Opening Day loss versus the Boston Red Sox. Haniger returned to the Mariners this offseason as part of the Robbie Ray trade. After a nice spring, the veteran starts the regular season out on a high. Haniger is entering his eighth season and while he has been productive, that is only when he has been able to be on the field. Outside of two seasons with Seattle that he played 157 contests, his next highest total is 96 games and that is all the way back in 2017. Managers should roster Haniger in deeper formats as he does provide good power stats, but he makes for a perfect sell-high candidate if he continues to hit well a few weeks into the season.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger has been off to a hot start in his second go around with the club. On Tuesday, Haniger went 1-for-2 with a walk and solo home run. In his return to the Mariners, the 33-year-old has already hit two homers with three RBI over just eight at-bats. The veteran is slated to start in the outfield for Seattle, but despite his potential for power, managers need to temper their expectations as he is one of the more injury prone players in the league. In redraft league, Haniger is a worth a late-round flier that can pay off with health.
