Mariners Place Mitch Haniger On IL, Select Tayler Scott

By Jeff Todd | June 7, 2019 at 3:32pm CDT

The Mariners announced today that outfielder Mitch Haniger has been placed on the 10-day injured list. He has been diagnosed with a ruptured testicle, Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times tweets.

That’s obviously not a run-of-the-mill injury for a ballplayer, though unfortunately it’s also not unheard of. There is no indication at this point how long Haniger will be sidelined.

In happier news, the M’s have selected the contract of righty Tayler Scott, as Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported earlier on Twitter. Scott, 27, carries a 5.88 ERA with a 44:19 K/BB ratio in 33 2/3 innings over 19 appearances at Triple-A this year. He’ll make his MLB debut after signing a minors deal with the Seattle organization over the winter.

Scott was a 2011 fifth-round draft pick who spent time in high school in the states, but he’s a born-and-bred South African. He’ll become the first player from an African nation to pitch in the big leagues; infielder Gift Ngoepe previously became the first such player to appear in the majors.

          Yeah I watched the game and it looked painful but didn’t expect this injury

        • 27menout

          He fouled the pitch off himself in the 3rd inning and continued to play and was replaced in the 9th inning, not 7th. My bad, it was a long extra inning game last night.

    One time the woman and I were getting each other ready before doing the deed and she squeezed one of mine too hard and knocked it into the other like they were billiard balls. Needless to say that immediately stopped the proceedings. This sounds much worse. Get better soon Mitch.

    Seriously though, no cup? Could this have happened despite a cup?

      As a former catcher in high school and college, yes it can happen with a cup. Sometimes the edges of the cup get askew and when the impact of the baseball hits, it can cause the injury

      I had a cup break on me in a football game. Never used one again. Enough said.

    How could we go this far without a one nut Kruk joke?

    I read this and my balls went way up inside. I think they a trembling in fear right now. That is awful. Have to hand it to him to keep playing with that though. Take your time coming back the team is going nowhere. No need to comeback too fast and do more damage.
