Mike Zunino Placed On DL With Oblique Strain

By Jeff Todd | March 30, 2018 at 9:22pm CDT

The Mariners have elected to place catcher Mike Zunino on the 10-day DL with a left oblique strain, per a club announcement. David Freitas was recalled to take his spot on the active roster.

Per the club, the injury occurred during a workout on Wednesday. The initial hope, though, had been that the it wouldn’t require a DL stint. It’s still unclear how long Zunino will be down.

Clearly, the M’s were not anticipating opening the year without their top backstop. Zunino turned in a big 2017 season — .251/.331/.509 with 25 home runs — and is expected to be a key component of Seattle’s hopes in 2018. Hopefully this muscle injury will not prove to be a major obstacle.

    Marjama took a bat to the hand in the opener, but stayed in and did a heck of a job considering. Hopefully he can make the most of this opportunity. Freitas will get called up to help out.

    Seattle’s luck with injuries continues to baffle me.

    A team should never need a catcher’s offensive production. They get too banged up.

      Catcher is a defensive position, but I’d always want an OK bat when it comes to catcher.
