Andrés Muñoz News
Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Andres Munoz closed out the team's 4-1 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Friday to earn his first save of the year. He pitched a scoreless ninth inning, allowing one hit and one walk while also inducing a strikeout. It's hard to feel confident about how the bullpen is aligned in Seattle right now. Diego Castillo and Drew Steckenrider each earned a single save during Opening Weekend, but neither has had a save chance since then as the team hadn't provided a save opportunity until this Friday, when Munoz was called upon. Castillo pitched the ninth inning in a pair of games earlier this past week when the team had four-run leads, so he seems to be the favorite for saves. However, he didn't pitch on Thursday, so he technically should have been available when Munoz was called upon instead of him on Friday. Consider it a closer-by-committee for now, but if you have to take a shot with member of the committee, go with Castillo.
Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Andres Munoz has agreed to a four-year contract extension that will guarantee him at least $7.5 million dollars. The deal also includes three club options. The initial four-year duration covers his final year before arbitration and all three arbitration years. The flame-throwing Munoz was acquired via trade from the San Diego Padres along with Ty France and others in 2020, and he has made just one appearance as a Mariner, recording two outs in the final game of the 2021 season. Munoz has long been considered a potential future dominant closer, with a fastball that averaged in the triple digits before his most recent injury. For now, with just 23 2/3 big-league innings to his name, he'll operate as a setup man in front of Paul Sewald.
The Seattle Mariners activated relief pitcher Andres Munoz (arm) on Saturday. Fellow reliever Joe Smith was placed on the injured list in a corresponding move without an injury distinction given. The 22-year-old Munoz has been working his way back from Tommy John surgery last year. He's made four appearances in rehab outings this year and over those appearances, he's posted a 4.91 ERA and 0.55 WHIP with seven strikeouts and just one walk.
