Matthew Marlowe: Breaking News
Outrighted to Triple-A
Marlowe was outrighted to Triple-A Tacoma on Friday after clearing waivers. Marlowe was DFA'd by the Mariners this past Monday in order to make room on the 40-man roster for Jorge Polanco (knee). Marlowe wasn't claimed off waivers, so he'll remain in Seattle's organization and will head to Triple-A for the start of the 2025 campaign. He spent most of the 2024 season with Tacoma, where he slashed .235/.341/.395 with 43 stolen bases, 13 home runs and 45 RBI over 411 plate appearances.
Scrubbed from 40-man roster
The Mariners designated Marlowe for assignment Monday, Adam Jude of the Seattle Times reports. Seattle needed to free up a spot on its 40-man roster for the addition of Jorge Polanco (knee). Marlowe, 27, has slashed .240/.330/.406 with three homers and four steals over 109 plate appearances at the major-league level over the last two seasons. He could draw some interest on waivers.
