Hancock gave up two hits, walked none and struck out seven. The 26-year-old right-hander started in place of the injured Bryan Woo. Hancock threw 51 pitches over four innings to start the game. He should be more of a bullpen option as the Mariners advance to the playoffs.

This would have been Bryan Woo’s slot before he was hurt last time out. The Mariners claimed the AL West last night and have a bye all but locked up, but they still have their sights on the top seed in the AL. Fortunately, they shouldn’t need to be at their best tonight against one of the worst teams ever assembled.

Hancock is going to pitch out of the bullpen in his latest promotion to Seattle. The right-hander has seen his fastball reach 99 mph with regularity in shorter stints, and the stuff should play better in relief than it did as a starter. He’s a potential high-leverage option someday — although starting isn’t completely out of the picture — but for now it’s likely he won’t see those types of chances.

Hancock heads back to Triple-A after a mediocre — at best — start against the Royals where he allowed five runs over six innings. The Mariners could recall Logan Evans as a starting option before the All-Star break, but also could operate with a four-man rotation for a bit due to off-days. Hancock has shown flashes of being a solid starting option, but there are just too many clunkers to trust him at this stage of his career.

A double and a base hit brought a run in to score for the Royals in the first inning. Hancock gave up two more runs in the second on a walk, two hits, and a groundout. He kept the Royals off the board until the fifth, with Salvador Perez driving in two runs on a double. Hancock hung in for one more inning before his day was done after six with one strikeout. The 26-year-old right-hander will take a 5.47 ERA, 1.44 WHIP, and a 53/30 K/BB ratio across 77 1/3 innings into a start against the Pirates in Seattle on Sunday.

Hancock was shellacked for four homers and nine runs in his previous start, so this was a marked improvement. It also helped he wasn’t pitching in a windstorm like he did against the Cubs, but the stuff looked better. Unfortunately, he got a goose egg of run support, and a two-run homer by Trevor Larnach was enough. Hancock’s 5.30 ERA is a bit misleading as it’s mostly based on two horrific starts, and he’ll be back on the bump against the Royals on Tuesday.

Hancock had a forgettable outing at Wrigley Field on Saturday. Ian Happ and Kyle Tucker took him deep for a pair of solo homers in the first inning. Chicago would bring four more runs in to score in the second, including two on a second homer by Happ. Michael Busch would make it nine runs with a three-run blast in the third. Hancock would hang in for one more inning before ending his day. He struck out five. The 26-year-old right-hander sees his ERA balloon to 5.43 with a 1.43 WHIP and a 50/24 K/BB ratio across 66 1/3 innings. He’ll take on the Twins in Minnesota on Thursday.

The 26-year-old right-hander punched out four batters on the afternoon. Hancock was in complete command from start to finish in this one. Both of the hits that he allowed were singles and at no point in the ballgame did the Guardians even have a runner touch second base against him. Two of the three runners that did reach were erased on double play balls. Hancock got 11 swings and misses on 85 pitches on the day — four each on his changeup and slider — while registering a CSW of 25 percent. He’ll look to build off of this brilliant start as he brings a 4.48 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and a 45/21 K/BB ratio (62 1/3 innings) into Saturday’s tilt against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.

Hancock allowed only two hits with one walk, and he struck out six in one of his best start of his short MLB career. The right-hander made just one mistake, but it was a hanging breaking-ball that Adley Rutschman clobbered and prevented Hancock from factoring into the decision. Hancock’s ERA is still 5.19, but that mark doesn’t speak to how the 26-year-old has pitched for the majority of 2025. He’ll get the Diamondbacks on Monday.

Hancock shut down the Nats’ offense for five innings, but he issued a couple of walks in the sixth, and both came around to score on a James Wood double after Hancock had left the game. His ERA is still at 5.64, but much of that damage came in a start where he gave up seven runs over a third of an inning against the Tigers back in April. Hancock will stay in the rotation until Logan Gilbert returns, and that includes an outing against the Orioles on Wednesday.

Hancock shut down the Nats’ offense for five innings, but he issued a couple of walks in the sixth, and both came around to score on a James Wood double after Hancock had left the game. His ERA is still at 5.64, but so much of that damage came in a start where he gave up seven runs over 1/3 of an inning against the Tigers back in April. Hancock will stay in the rotation until Logan Gilbert returns, and that includes an outing against the Orioles on Wednesday.

Hancock allowed six hits, but he walked just one with three strikeouts. He was able to get Manny Machado to strike out with the bases loaded for his final out of the game, and while he doesn’t qualify for a win, it’s a nice rebound from his struggles earlier this week against the Yankees. Hancock still has an ugly 6.21 ERA, but the bulk of the damage came in two atrocious starts against New York and the Tigers. The Mariners have not set their rotation for next week yet, but he could go in the four-game series against the Astros.

Hancock gave up a run on a walk and a base hit in the first inning. A walk, wild pitch and single in the third put a second run on the board for the A’s. Hancock would toss three more scoreless innings, ending his day after six with a pair of strikeouts for his third straight quality start. The 25-year-old right-hander will take a 5.70 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and a 17/7 K/BB ratio across 23 2/3 innings into a start against the Yankees in Seattle on Monday.

Hancock left with the Mariners trailing, but he put the team in good position to come back and win, which it did 9-3. Hancock’s velocity was down some today, as his 93.5 mph average on his sinker was off by 1.2 mph from his season mark. He’s scheduled to face the A’s next week.

Hancock got plenty of run support from Seattle’s offense and managed to avoid any serious damage against a strong Red Sox lineup at hitter-friendly Fenway Park. The 25-year-old former prospect has turned in a pair of solid performances since returning to the big leagues, but we’re hesitant to recommend him for fantasy purposes. He’s in line to face the Angels on Tuesday in his next outing.

Hancock’s first start of the season was an unmitigated disaster that saw him allow seven runs in just 2/3 of an inning. He did allow a two-run homer in the first inning to Austin Hays, but the 25-year-old right-hander kept Cincinnati off the board from that point on. The former first-round pick struck out four and didn’t issue a walk. Hancock will make his third start of 2025 against the Red Sox, and while he pitched well in this one, it’s probably best to look elsewhere.

The move was announced on Wednesday night, but now it’s official. Hancock will start against the Reds on Thursday but is not a recommended streaming option after he gave up six runs in 2/3 of an inning in his only start of the season.

The move pushes Bryan Woo back to take the ball for Friday’s series opener against the Blue Jays on an extra day of rest. Hancock was lit up for or six runs and recorded only two outs back on March 31 in his lone start this season in the big leagues. He’s not a recommended fantasy option.

It’s not quite official yet, but multiple Seattle beat reporters are confirming that Hancock is likely to take the ball this weekend versus Toronto. The 25-year-old was obliterated for six runs and recorded only two outs back on March 31 in his season debut, which earned him a lightning-quick demotion to Triple-A Tacoma. He’s not a recommended streaming option for fantasy purposes.
