As the title gives away, a Mariners fan-favorite is back in action and—obviously, with his inclusion here—Julio Rodríguez has hit the ground running since returning from the Injured List. But, he’s not the only notable name who’s recently returned to action after time away.
Before we dive into today’s roundup, we have good news on two players who aren’t in this group. After nursing a sore wrist, Jarred Kelenic returned to action for the Modesto Nuts last night. Also, a hearty congratulations to Jake Fraley as the outfielder acquired from the Rays this offseason has received a well-earned promotion to the Tacoma Rainiers.
