This is what the Mariners were envisioning when they offered Garver a two-year, $24 million contract to serve as a DH and a backup to Cal Raleigh; the duo combined for four homers today. They now have 32 homers between them this season! Alas, 29 of those do belong to Raleigh, as Garver has slipped into a platoon role against lefties while batting .216/.321/.319. Garver’s second homer today was the 100th of his career.

Just filling up the box score. In Raleigh’s fine first full season in the bigs, he finished with 27 homers, 46 runs scored and 63 RBI in 119 games. After today, he has 29 homers, 51 runs scored and 63 RBI in 73 games this season. Oh, and he’s 9-for-11 stealing bases.

Kirby gave up homers to Ian Happ and Reese McGuire and left down 4-2 before the offense picked him up. His velocity and spin rates were down a bit today. It wasn’t enough to be immediately worrisome, but given that Kirby has missed time with shoulder inflammation, it’s worth keeping an eye on. He’s slated to face the Twins on Wednesday.

Raley wound up missing nearly eight weeks with a strained oblique. He’s back now after going 7-for-19 with a homer in five games for Triple-A Tacoma. He’ll start against righties and primarily play first base after the Mariners cut Rowdy Tellez to make room for him. He should offer some fantasy value in deeper leagues, though probably not 10- and 12-teamers.

The 31-year-old elected free agency on Friday after he was sent outright to Triple-A Indianapolis, but it sounds like the two sides were eventually able to reach an agreement. The 31-year-old backstop will continue to function as extra catching depth for the Bucs.

The recovery timetable for that injury ranges from two-to-six weeks, so it sounds like Herrera could be shelved for a while once again. Pedro Pages will handle the bulk of the action behind the dish once again while Herrera is sidelined.

It’s not known when Herrera picked up the strain, but it’ll keep him out of action for at least a week-plus. The 25-year-old will hit the shelf for the rest of June, and Thomas Sagesse is up to replace the backstop on the roster; albeit in a much different role.
