Overview

  • The Mariners reinstated lefty Gabe Speier from the 15‑day injured list on Tuesday and added him to the active roster, the club announced on X.
  • Right‑hander Nick Davila was optioned to Triple‑A Tacoma in the corresponding move to open a roster spot for Speier.
  • Speier missed time with left shoulder inflammation and made rehab appearances before being cleared to rejoin the club.
  • This season Speier has a 2.92 ERA with 12 strikeouts in 12.1 innings, a solid run prevention mark paired with a 1.541 WHIP that suggests he has allowed a fair number of baserunners.
  • Manager Dan Wilson will decide when to use Speier in games, and his presence gives Seattle a trusted left‑hand option that should increase matchup flexibility and short‑term bullpen depth.
