Mariners Activate Casey Sadler, Place Sam Haggerty On IL

By TC Zencka | September 7, 2020 at 12:11pm CDT

The Mariners have added Casey Sadler to their active roster. Sadler was claimed off waivers from the Cubs a couple of days ago. In a corresponding move, Sam Haggerty has been placed on the 10-day IL, per a team release.

Sadler has bounced around in his professional career, suiting up for the Pirates, Rays, Dodgers, and Cubs prior to the Mariners. Last season was the busiest of his career: he made 33 appearances between the Rays and Dodgers with a 2.14 ERA/4.39 FIP across 46 1/3 innings. He was less effective for the Cubs this year as he struggled to find the plate (7.7 BB/9). He came out of the Cubs’ pen 10 times this year, finishing with a 5.79 ERA/6.58 FIP before being placed on waivers.

Haggerty was another waiver claim made by the Mariners this past January. The Mariners snagged the utlity man from the Mets, who had in turn acquired him from the Indians along with Walker Lockett for catcher Kevin Plawecki.

The 26-year-old Haggerty can play all over the field, but he mostly settled into left field for the Mariners this season. The switch-hitter held his own with a triple slash of .260/.315/.400 over 54 plate appearances, racking up 0.4 rWAR. The Mariners are flush with multi-positional athletes who can take the at-bats that otherwise would have gone to Haggerty. Dylan Moore will see time in left as could Dee Strange-Gordon or Shed Long Jr., who appeared in 16 games in left last season, though he has yet to play there this year.

    Haggerty has been fun to watch in his brief stint up. Hopefully he gets well and gets the opportunity to pick it back up to prove he belongs in the bigs.

      He AAAA fodder. He belongs as a scrap heap guy, nothing more. Not a bad backup infielder in a pinch, but he’ll never be a permanent fixture

    The Mariners may not make the playoffs, but one thing’s for certain. It’s gonna be a blast watching Yankees and Astros fans engage in scoreboard-watching courtesy of the Mariners, Tigers, Jays, and Orioles. That’s six teams vying for three spots.
