With the rosters expanding from 26 to 28, we’ve seen a pile of promotions this week. A lot of them are depth pieces, but we saw some blue chippers, too.
Freshly promoted Mariners C Harry Ford should get some run behind the plate and cover a few starts in the outfield. Cal Raleigh has tailed off a bit after the All-Star break and would likely benefit from a few more days at DH. In 97 games at Triple-A this year, Ford is slashing .283/.408/.460 with 16 home runs and seven stolen bases.
