Emerson Hancock Stats

Seattle Mariners rookie right-hander Emerson Hancock (shoulder) doesn't have a tear or any structural damage in his right shoulder, but given that the recovery time frame for his injury was roughly four to six weeks when he suffered it during an Aug. 20 start, his 2023 season is likely over. Hancock was moved to the 60-day injured list on Aug. 22, one day after landing on the 15-day injured list. The 24-year-old was diagnosed with a Grade 1 shoulder strain and received a platelet-rich plasma injection on Tuesday in order to speed up the healing process. The good news is Hancock should be fully recovered by spring training next year, where he will look to open the 2024 season as a full-time member of Seattle's starting rotation.

Seattle Mariners rookie pitching prospect Emerson Hancock (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Monday with a right-shoulder strain. The team recalled right-hander Darren McCaughan from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move. Hancock goes on the shelf after being pulled from his start on Sunday against the Houston Astros after just two innings. Fellow rookie Bryan Woo (forearm) is set to come off the injured list during the series against the Chicago White Sox this week to take Hancock's spot in the starting rotation. In Hancock's first three major-league starts, he's allowed six earned runs on 13 hits (one homer) while walking three and striking out six in 12 innings pitched.

Seattle Mariners rookie right-hander Emerson Hancock (lat, shoulder) could be headed for a trip to the injured list after he felt his lat "kind of grab" in his start on Sunday against the Houston Astros, according to manager Scott Servais. Hancock was removed after just two innings with what the team was calling a shoulder strain at the time. The former first-rounder in 2020 had his season delayed by six weeks this year due to a lat strain, and he's battled shoulder issues since being taken sixth overall out of Georgia. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues that have been using Hancock might need to prepare to be without him, possibly for the rest of the 2023 season. In his three MLB starts, the 24-year-old has a 4.50 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and six strikeouts in 12 innings.
