Los Angeles Angels outfielder Justin Upton went 1-for-4 with a home run and a walk in Monday's win over the Astros. Upton had been in the midst of a 3-for-23 slump but took some strides towards breaking out of it, walking in his second at-bat of the game, then homering in his third. The veteran outfielder now has seven homers, which is tied for third on the team. Upton's barrel and hard-hit rates are the highest they've been since the 2018 season when he hit 30 homers- though he remains a relatively one-dimensional fantasy option given his low batting average and high strikeout rate.--Tim Capurso

Seattle Mariners outfielder Justin Upton (head) was hit in his helmet by a fastball from Los Angeles Angels starter Michael Lorenzen on Friday. He was promptly removed from the game after the incident. According to Mariners manager Scott Servais, Upton never lost consciousness. He was communicating with trainers while he was being looked over. Servais is hopeful that Upton can be utilized as the team's designated hitter on Saturday. Friday was Upton's debut with the Mariners and he went 0-for-2 with a strikeout and the aforementioned hit-by-pitch in the contest.--Andrew Ericksen - RotoBaller

The Seattle Mariners are calling up veteran outfielder Justin Upton from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday in time to face his old team, the Los Angeles Angels. In a corresponding move, Sam Haggerty has been optioned to Tacoma. The Angels released Upton before the start of the regular season, and he was hitting just .200/.289/.378 with two home runs, six RBI and eight runs scored in 12 games for Tacoma before his call-up. The 34-year-old is no longer the power threat he was earlier in his career, but he should see at least semi-regular playing time while sharing time in right field with Taylor Trammell. Upton finished with a .211/.296/.409 slash line with 17 long balls, 41 RBI, 47 runs scored and four stolen bases in 89 games with the Angels last year.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The Seattle Mariners signed free agent outfielder Justin Upton on Saturday. He was released by the Angels on April 8th and found a new home in Seattle. The 34-year-old slashed .211/.296/.409 with 17 home runs, 41 RBI, and 47 runs over 89 games for the Angels in 2021. According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the Mariners will be responsible for only about $550,000 in Upton's $28 million contract. Upton will provide Seattle outfield depth and occasionally serve as the team's designated hitter. Fantasy managers in deep league formats searching for power can add Upton to their roster.--Brad Camara - RotoBaller

Outfielder Justin Upton has officially cleared waivers and been released by the Los Angeles Angels. The 34-year-old was designated for assignment a week ago. He is now a free agent and can sign with any team. Upton has spent 15 years in the majors. Last year, he appeared in 89 games for the Angels and slashed .211/.296/.409 with 17 home runs, 41 RBI and 47 runs. It seems likely that another team will take a chance on him, at least with a minor league contract.--Andrew Ericksen - RotoBaller
