Drew Steckenrider On Restricted List, Roenis Elias Called Up
3 years agoThe Seattle Mariners placed right-hander Drew Steckenrider on the restricted list on Monday and selected left-hander Roenis Elias' contract from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move. The 31-year-old Steckenrider probably isn't vaccinated, so he won't make the trip for the team's series in Toronto this week. Steckenrider does have two saves in 13 innings pitched for the M's this year as part of a committee approach to the ninth inning, but he also has allowed seven earned runs and was pulled from a save situation on Sunday after allowing two runs. Diego Castillo, Paul Sewald and Andres Munoz could see save chances with Steckenrider out this week. Elias missed each of the last two seasons due to an elbow injury, and he could be sent right back to the minors when Steckenrider returns later this week.
