Well, that was quick. The Seattle Mariners promoted Chris Taylor from Class-AAA Tacoma on May 22 to replace the injured Ketel Marte at shortstop. However, Taylor only appeared in two games for the Mariners before being optioned back to Tacoma in favor of Luis Sardinas on Wednesday morning.
Taylor did not look sharp in his brief time with the Mariners. The University of Virginia alum committed a pair of errors in his 2016 debut on Monday night, and went a combined 1 for 3 with a couple of strikeouts across 2 games.
