Mariners Place Robinson Cano On Disabled List

By Steve Adams | May 16, 2017 at 6:07pm CDT

The Mariners announced on Tuesday that second baseman Robinson Cano has been placed on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to May 13, with a strained right quadriceps. Though Cano hasn’t played since May 10, the newly implemented 10-day disabled list only allows teams to backdate DL stints by a maximum of three days.

Cano becomes the latest key Mariners contributor to land on the DL, as he joins the vast majority of the starting rotation — Felix Hernandez, Hisashi Iwakuma, James Paxton, Drew Smyly — and breakout rookie Mitch Haniger on the shelf. Relievers Evan Marshall, Evan Scribner and Shae Simmons are all on the disabled list, too, as is utilityman Shawn O’Malley.

Seattle’s press release doesn’t include any quotes from GM Jerry Dipoto on Cano’s status, nor does it include any type of timetable for his return. However, to this point there’s been nothing to suggest that Cano is in for a lengthy stay on the DL. That said, even a minimal absence for Cano is a tough pill for the Mariners to swallow. Though 2017 represents Cano’s age-34 campaign, he turned in one of the finest seasons of his career in 2016 and has actually been performing at a higher level thus far in 2017. Through 34 games (152 plate appearances), the seven-time All-Star is batting .296/.362/.533 with eight homers and eight doubles.

Outfielder Boog Powell has been recalled from Triple-A Tacoma to take Cano’s spot on the active roster. While he obviously won’t be a candidate to fill in for Cano at second base, the Mariners didn’t necessarily need to recall an infielder, as reserve players Taylor Motter and Mike Freeman are both capable of playing second base.

    There are no comments yet because everyone is CUSSING their face off and the comments just get taken down by the moderators. Gosh darn it. Next thing you know the moose will be on the DL. in fact, they should have the moose in a cast and crutches wheeled to the mound to throw out the first pitch tonight.

    Well at least Segura is getting five hits every game and Haniger is almost back… Right?

    Too bad they can’t put Servais on the DL.The M’s need someone else to manage the late innings of a game.I just don’t get why he keeps using Diaz to close games with his 5.28 home run prone ERA.The guy is just not that good.And it’s not like they don’t have other guys who can close,especially now with Cishek back.

    IIRC Cano has never been on the DL before in his career. No one is safe this season.

    The mariners are about to have to promote all of AAA just to have a team this season.

    Sucks for the Mariners, injuries are the worst part of sports. I like to see every guy get a chance to go out and play each day.

    As far as moderation goes, this is the least moderated discussion board that I participate on by far. People should be able to present a heated argument without cussing, like mature adults.

    Wasn’t Cano on the DL for an abdominal issue a few years ago?

      Doubt it since he’s played at least 156 games every year from 2007-2016.

    If we had got any resemblance of a catcher it would help out! .141/.226/.195 overall triple slash from our catchers is absolutely atrocious. Why isn’t anyone talking about that? Yeah, injuries have hit, but not at catcher, we just suck at that position. And to liamsfg, when you’ve sucked as long as the mariners have, you should be allowed to cuss

    Good news of for the angels! The M’s have been playing well, but without cano plus hanger and others the angels have an easier division.

    Well kid, Cabo’s best seasons are behind him. I wish him the best in returning to good health quickly. Staying healthy as an age 34 player-2nd base – will become more and more difficult. Too bad the M’s committed to another 6 seasons at his pay grade.

      Thanks for the well wishes, but us Mariners fans have also heard this spiel for the last four seasons now. It sucks he’s on the DL, but his production hasn’t worried me at all yet besides the issues he had in the first half of 2015.

    Cano has outperformed his contract (so far) and deserves praise for how he handles himself on and off the field. I admit, I’m surprised. Ironically, they have Nelson Cruz the ageless wonder who continues to defy father time. batting .319 with 10 HR and 36 RBI in 40 games and turns 37 this July. Maybe, Cano does the same thing through his age 37 season like Cruz is. Stop hating on Robbie Cano, Yankee fans. Signed, a Yankee fan
