Braden Bishop News
San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Reyes Moronta (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Monday. The organization did that in order to make a roster spot for their new outfielder. They claimed right-handed outfielder Braden Bishop from the Seattle Mariners. His last name might sound familiar since his younger brother Hunter is one of the Giants' top prospects. This is nothing more than additional depth in the outfield and giving the team a slight boost on the defensive side.
Seattle Mariners outfielder Braden Bishop was recalled from the alternate site Wednesday, following Jake Fraley's placement on the 10-day injured list. Bishop was the only available outfielder at the alternate site on Seattle's 40-man roster. Bishop will occupy a bench role, as Dylan Moore, Sam Haggerty, and Jose Marmolejos will split the majority of the vacated at-bats. Bishop is best left on fantasy waiver wires at this time, especially with uber-prospect Jarred Kelenic waiting in the wings once his service time is no longer a consideration.
Seattle Mariners outfielders Mitch Haniger (testicle) and Braden Bishop (spleen) both had surgery on Friday and are out indefinitely. The Mariners have had some bad luck in their outfield this week after just trading Jay Bruce last weekend. Haniger is the big one, though, and he could wind up missing a month or more with this freak injury. He had been disappointing with a .220 average, but his counting stats of 15 homers, 46 runs and 32 RBI play in all leagues. With both Haniger and Bishop on the shelf, Mac Williamson will see everyday playing time now in Seattle, but he won't be worth adding outside of AL-only leagues.
