Sailors announce right-handed Matt Brash He has recovered from the 15-day list of injuries. He underwent UCL surgery last year and will be in the major league for the first time since the 2023 season began. Right-handed Troy Taylor Selected as Triple A Tacoma as the corresponding move.
It's an early birthday gift for Brash, who will turn 27 on May 12. Before his recent absence, he was establishing himself as a powerful bullpen weapon for sailors. By 2022, M's still uses him as a beginner. He started his MLB debut with five games early that year, but his average running average score of 7.65. They chose him as a minor and began to convert him into relief.
Since then, the results have been great. He was recalled in July and threw 30 2/3 of the innings from the bullpen for the rest of the time. At that time, he had an ERA of 2.35, strikeout rate of 33.9%, and a walking rate of 12.6%. He added 3 1/3 of the postseason no divisions. In 2023, he was his first full season as a reliefist, recording 70 2/3 innings with a 3.06 ERA, a strikeout rate of 34.7% and a heavily improved 9.4% walking rate.
Since being called in July 2022, he has 2.84 ERA in 101 1/3 innings, with a strikeout rate of 34.5% and a walking rate of 10.3%. He became part of the club's high-leverage group, winning four saves and 33 holds at the time.
Unfortunately, this has been stopped for over a year. He had some arm trouble in early 2024, and eventually under the knife in May. Now that he is back, it will be a good push for the Seattle bullpen. Jackson Kowar Still recovering from his own UCL surgery. Gregory Santos He recently underwent knee surgery and was quickly transferred to Illinois State University for 60 days, meaning he won't be back anytime soon.
Club Rescuers This year's Rescuers have a collective 3.69 ERA, which puts them outside the top 10. However, their 3-point shooting percentage is 18.9%, which is actually the 28th place in the league, behind the Cardinals and the Marlins. Assuming Brash returns to his previous strikeout method, he will give them a nice bump in the department. Andrés Muñoz It's Seattle close, but Brash should jump in and play one of the main set-up roles.
