Mariners Notes: Caballero, Wong, Moore, Bullpen

Rookie infielder Jose Caballero’s initial call-up to the Mariners’ roster was expected to be a short-term stint to provide some depth while utilityman Sam Haggerty dealt with a concussion, but he’s parlaying that opportunity into a larger role. As Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times writes, he’s already made a strong impression on manager Scott…

Seattle Mariners catcher Tom Murphy will start and bat eighth on Saturday against Cleveland. Cal Raleigh was behind home plate the last two games and collected two hits and two RBI in eight at-bats. However, he won't be in the starting lineup for this one, although he'll presumably return on Sunday to cap off the series with the Guardians. Of course, Murphy will have a tough time filling the void left by Raleigh, so fantasy managers should look for another catcher on Saturday evening.

Tom Murphy Back In Lineup

Seattle Mariners catcher Tom Murphy (forearm) is batting seventh on Thursday against the Cincinnati Reds. Murphy will be behind the plate for the Mariners. He had some tightness in his forearm earlier in the week but is apparently good to go. The backstop will be behind Cal Raleigh on the depth chart and can be ignored for fantasy purposes.

Tom Murphy Scratched On Monday

Seattle Mariners catcher Tom Murphy (forearm) was scratched ahead of Monday's Cactus League matchup versus the Milwaukee Brewers. It sounds like the veteran catcher was pulled ahead of this game due to left forearm tightness. This doesn't sound like a serious issue, so Murphy should be fine for Opening Day. However, Cam Raleigh has stepped up and earned the starting catcher spot in Seattle. Murphy is probably only worth looking at in two-catcher leagues.

Tom Murphy Homers Friday Night

Seattle Mariners catcher Tom Murphy went 3-for-3 with a home run and three runs scored in Friday's 6-3 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks in Cactus League play. Murphy hadn't done much in his first three spring games, but he broke out at the plate on Friday. The 31-year-old backstop is returning after having season-ending surgery on his shoulder last June. He was hitting .303/.439/.455 with a homer, one RBI and nine runs scored in 14 games at the time of his injury. With Murphy out, Cal Raleigh stepped up with 27 home runs as Seattle's primary catcher in 2022, so Murphy is set for backup duties for the M's to begin the 2023 season. Those in two-catcher leagues shouldn't ignore Murphy, though, but he also hasn't played in more than 97 games in a single MLB season.
