Mariners' Mitch Haniger: On bench Friday
Haniger is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Angels.
He will yield to Mitch Garver at DH on Friday, marking Haniger's third time out of the starting lineup in four games. Friday's contest marks the first time in 2024 that Haniger hasn't been in the starting nine against a left-handed pitcher.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: On bench Wednesday
Haniger is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.
With Cal Raleigh getting a day off behind the plate but staying in the lineup at designated hitter, the Mariners won't have a spot available for Haniger. The 33-year-old should crack the lineup more often than not when the Mariners face left-handed pitching, but Haniger's opportunities to pick up starts against righties may be more sporadic, especially now that Julio Rodriguez is able to play the outfield again coming off a right ankle injury.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Not starting Monday
Haniger is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.
Hanniger will begin Monday's contest in the dugout after going 0-for-7 with two strikeouts over his last two starts. In Haniger's stead, Justin Turner will serve as the Mariners' designated hitter and will bat sixth against Rays right-hander Ryan Pepiot.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Belts pinch-hit homer Wednesday
Haniger entered a loss to the Dodgers on Wednesday as a pinch hitter in the top of the ninth inning and hit a solo home run in his only at-bat.
The veteran outfielder had returned to the starting lineup Tuesday following a one-game absence due to a quadriceps injury and gone 0-for-4, but he delivered in the clutch off the bench a day later. However, Haniger's blast only served to get the Mariners halfway to Los Angeles' eight-run total and turned out to be the final run of the night for Seattle. The solo shot snapped an 11-game homer-drought for the 33-year-old, whose .353 slugging percentage remains a career low.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: In Tuesday's lineup
Haniger (quad) will start in right field and bat seventh Tuesday against the Dodgers.
Haniger was forced to make an early exit from Saturday's game due to a quad injury, but he was available off the bench Monday and will now return to the starting nine Tuesday. The 33-year-old has begun to heat up lately, slashing .256/.293/.436 with two homers and eight RBI across 41 plate appearances since the start of August.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Inching closer to full strength
Haniger (quad) is being considered day-to-day and was available to pinch hit Monday night against the Dodgers, Kyle Glaser of The Associated Press reports.
The Mariners didn't call upon Haniger to pinch hit in the series opener, but the fact that he was available off the bench is a positive sign. The outfielder suffered a quad injury during Saturday's game against the Pirates and hasn't seen any action since.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Exits with quad injury Saturday
Haniger went 2-for-2 with a run in a loss to the Pirates on Saturday before being removed from the game in the fourth inning with a quadriceps injury, per MLB.com.
Haniger's injury, which occurred on his leaping attempt at a Rowdy Tellez fourth-inning home run, put a damper on his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 3. The veteran outfielder has started to show some signs of climbing out of his season-long funk this month, as he is sporting a .256 batting average, .729 OPS and eight RBI across 41 August plate appearances, albeit while striking out at an elevated 34.1 percent clip over that span. Haniger is considered day-to-day for the time being.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Squeezed out of lineup
Haniger is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Tigers.
Haniger had started in all but two of the Mariners' previous 18 games, but he'll hit the bench Thursday and looks like he could be at risk of losing hold of his near-everyday role with both Dominic Canzone and Julio Rodriguez recently making returns from the injured list. Canzone will start in right field Thursday, while Rodriguez is out of the lineup after aggravating a right ankle injury Wednesday, though the Mariners don't believe the 23-year-old will have to return to the IL. Assuming Rodriguez is back in action in short order as the Mariners' primary designated hitter, Haniger may have to settle for the short side of a platoon in the outfield with the lefty-hitting Canzone.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Game-winning knock Thursday
Haniger went 1-for-4 with a walk-off three-run double in a win over the Tigers on Thursday.
Haniger stepped to the plate with two out and the bases loaded in the ninth and delivered a double to right field that just got past the glove of Ryan Vilade and skipped to the wall. The bases-clearing knock pushed Haniger's RBI total to six over the last six games. The timely hit also snapped a brief 0-for-9 funk for Haniger, who sports a .208 batting average and .644 OPS across 98 games this season.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Reaches 10-homer mark
Haniger went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 10-2 win over the Phillies.
Haniger produced his first multi-hit effort since June 14. He singled in the second inning and scored on a Luke Raley homer before going yard himself in the seventh inning for Seattle's last run of the game. Aside from the first few weeks of the season, Haniger has not been very consistent at the plate. He has a .209/.293/.347 slash line with 10 homers, 36 RBI, 34 runs scored and 11 doubles over 93 contests this season. He's still getting a decent share of playing time between right field and designated hitter, but Haniger's role could be reduced once Dominic Canzone (thigh) or Julio Rodriguez (ankle) returns from his respective injury.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Plays hero in Saturday's win
Haniger went 2-for-3 with two RBI from a solo home run and a game-winning bases-loaded walk while adding another base on balls and another run in an extra-inning victory over the Phillies on Saturday.
Haniger was responsible for the Mariners' first and final runs of the night, accomplishing the former with his 11th home run of the season in the fifth to start a comeback from a 5-0 deficit. It was Haniger's second straight game leaving the yard after having homered just once in the previous 13 contests, and it also extended his on-base streak to eight consecutive starts. Haniger's plate discipline also paid off in the 10th when he pushed the game-winning run across with his second walk of the night, and he's looked much more like his typically reliable self of late by forging a .286 average and 1.087 OPS across the 36 plate appearances covering his last nine games.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Heading to bench Wednesday
Haniger is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
Haniger will hit the bench for the afternoon contest after he had started in each of Seattle's last six games while going 4-for-20 with a solo home run and five walks. The Mariners will likely continue to open up a lineup spot for Haniger against left-handed pitching, but his starting opportunities versus righties may be more sporadic, especially once Julio Rodriguez (ankle) and Dominic Canzone (adductor) return from the injured list.

Mariners' Mitch Haniger: Drawing fifth straight start
Haniger will serve as the Mariners' designated hitter and No. 8 batter in Monday's game against the Red Sox.
Haniger will nab his fifth straight start Monday after producing two extra-base hits and drawing five walks over the past four contests. His recent success at the plate could be enough for Haniger to remain a regular in the lineup for the time being, but he'll be at risk of moving into a part-time role as soon as his bat cools down.
