2K24: Seattle Mariners

[fuhrdog]

Looks like Kelenic is not making the opening day roster now.

An MRI on Saturday revealed that Jarred Kelenic suffered a Grade 2 strain of the adductor muscle in his left knee.

And the Mariner brass are popping the cork on the champagne.

Out 3 to 6 weeks. Combined with AAA being delayed, which I'm sure they want him in some game action, I think we're looking at June before we see him in Seattle.

I don't think that's going to be the case...some estimates yesterday have him out for as little as a week. Either way, I suspect he'll be up no later than the end of April, the minor leaguers will be getting in plenty of AB's in the alternative camp.

I thought the only estimate of a week came from Kelenic himself.

Any read on Trammell?
How does Seattle fit Trammell, Kelenic, Julio, and Kyle Lewis?

Trammell needs to figure out how to hit minor league pitching before he's a concern. There's plenty of room for the others, I am sure. Haniger is the only guy on the roster who would, if healthy, keep any of them out, and there is a DH spot for rotational purposes.

He says he'll be back in a week, other estimates are 2-6 weeks. With all seeming to be in agreement that it's nothing severe, I'd lean towards the lower part of the estimate.

Knee sprains are weird. Acuna had one his rookie season (when he tried to play umpire beating out an infield single in Boston). Even though there was nobody around to replace him on the roster, the Braves had to put him on the IL between the games of the DH they were playing that day to stop him from running around the clubhouse in an attempt to show he could play in game two. He ended up being out for a month.

[Hornsby]

He's back in the ST line-up...went 0-1 with a walk and a run scored.

Does anyone know why Yusei Kikuchi hasn't pitched since March 14th?

I would like to report a missing pitcher.

Thanks for the info. It's really strange that Kikuchi went from pitching in real games to pitching in a sim game after a 12 day layoff. Sounds like he may have had some kind of minor health issue that the Mariners kept quiet about.

Mariners reassigned OF Jarred Kelenic to minor league camp.
