• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Swipes bag in Sunday's win

  Rotowire May 13, 2024

  Moore went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a steal in Sunday's win over the Athletics. Moore led things off with a base hit and stole second before eventually coming around to score on a Mitch Garver single to give the Mariners a quick lead. He later drove in a run on a sacrifice fly. It was just his third stolen base since April 24, though he's on pace for double digit steals again after only managing seven in 67 games last season. Moore continues to see regular at-bats with J.P. Crawford (oblique) still working his way back and even works out of the leadoff spot against lefties like he did Sunday. For the year, the 31-year-old is slashing .222/.321/.411 with three homers, 13 RBI, 12 runs and an 11:28 BB:K in 106 plate appearances.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Five RBI in win

  Rotowire May 11, 2024

  Moore went 3-for-4 with a home run and five RBI in Friday's 8-1 win over the Athletics. Moore hit a two-run home run in the fifth inning, then added a two-run single in the fifth and an RBI single in the seventh. He had recorded just one multi-hit effort and a total of four RBI over his previous 12 contests. The 31-year-old lifted his slash line to .226/.333/.429 with three homers, 12 RBI, 11 runs scored and five stolen bases through 99 plate appearances. Moore continues to operate as the Mariners' top shortstop while J.P. Crawford (oblique) is on the mend.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Hitting bench Thursday

  Rotowire May 9, 2024

  Moore is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins. Moore has taken over as the Mariners' primary option at shortstop since J.P. Crawford (oblique) was placed on the 10-day injured list April 25, but he'll cede his spot in the field to Leonardo Rivas in the series finale in Minnesota. During Crawford's absence, Moore has batted just .184, though five of his seven hits over his last 13 games have gone for extra bases.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Keeps up hard hitting Tuesday

  Rotowire May 8, 2024

  Moore went 2-for-3 with an RBI double, a triple, a walk and two runs in a win over the Twins on Tuesday. Moore's propensity for hard contact was on full display again Tuesday, with the veteran utility man belting his seventh and eighth extra-base hits of the season. Moore has already tied a career high with his pair of three-baggers, and with four doubles, he's just under halfway to his 2023 total of nine in that department. The 31-year-old came into Tuesday with a .143 average and 32.3 percent strikeout rate over the prior 10 games, making his first multi-hit effort since April 24 a particularly welcome sight.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Lifts second homer Friday

  Rotowire May 4, 2024

  Moore went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Astros on Friday. The fifth-inning blast with Luke Raley aboard extended Moore's hitting streak to three games while also serving as Moore's first homer since Opening Day. The utility man also coaxed his average back over the Mendoza Line for the first time since April 25, but his .682 OPS still has plenty of room for improvement.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Checks out of starting nine

  Rotowire Apr 28, 2024

  Moore is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks. After starting each of the past four games at shortstop while producing three hits and adding two stolen bases and one run over 12 at-bats, Moore will give way to Leonardo Rivas in the series finale. Moore should still see the bulk of the starts at shortstop for the duration of J.P. Crawford's (oblique) stay on the injured list.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Likely to fill in for Crawford

  Rotowire Apr 25, 2024

  Moore will start at shortstop and bat sixth in Thursday's game against the Rangers. He'll man shortstop for the second game in a row and is expected to serve as the main option at the position after J.P. Crawford (oblique) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, according to Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM. Moore has a pair of 20-steal seasons on his resume and already has five stolen bases in just 53 plate appearances so far in 2024, so his speed could make him an appealing short-term option in deeper mixed leagues now that he's on track to get consistent playing time.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Nabs two thefts in loss

  Rotowire Apr 25, 2024

  Moore went 2-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases in Wednesday's loss to the Rangers. Seattle managed only one run in the contest, but that wasn't due to a lack of production on Moore's part. The utility man collected two of the team's eight hits and put himself in scoring position twice with a pair of steals. Moore is up to five thefts on the campaign, but he's still slashing a meager .214/.358/.357.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Swipes bag in loss

  Rotowire Apr 15, 2024

  Moore went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Sunday's loss to the Cubs. Moore replaced Dominic Canzone in the second inning after the latter suffered an apparent shoulder injury that forced him out of the game. Moore led off with a base hit in the fifth and took second base for his third steal of the year but would be stranded there. There was a brief possibility that a path to additional playing time could open up for Moore with the injury to Canzone, but the Mariners are expected to promote outfielder Jonatan Clase from Triple-A Tacoma on Monday who will likely slide into that starting outfield role while Canzone is sidelined.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Clubs homer off bench

  Rotowire Mar 29, 2024

  Moore went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in a 6-4 loss to Boston on Thursday. Moore began the game on the bench but entered as a pinch hitter for Dominic Canzone in the seventh inning. The move paid off for Seattle, as Moore slammed a 409-foot, two-run shot to center to bring the Mariners to within a run. Moore slashed .378/.511/.595 with two long balls this spring, but he's had contact issues throughout his big-league career and isn't slated for an everyday role this year, so his fantasy outlook is limited.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Blistering spring continues Tuesday

  Rotowire Mar 20, 2024

  Moore went 3-for-3 with an RBI single, a three-run home run, a stolen base and an additional run in a Cactus League win over the Rockies on Tuesday. Moore operated out of the leadoff spot while starting at shortstop, and his dominant showing at the plate pushed his Cactus League batting average to .393 across 28 at-bats. Moore has compiled a double, Tuesday's homer, seven RBI, eight walks, three stolen bases and seven runs this spring, a particularly welcome sign after he slashed .199/.311/.370 over the last three seasons. However, he also produced a 30.4 percent strikeout rate over that span, and his 13 strikeouts this spring is a warning sign those issues aren't behind him.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Showing versatility in spring

  Rotowire Mar 7, 2024

  Moore went 0-for-3 in Wednesday's 8-7 over the Royals. Moore has been looking sharp thus far in the spring Wednesday excluded, hitting .364 with an .864 OPS over 11 at-bats. The 31-year-old has been in the lead-off spot several times while also playing three different infield positions. This versatility, paired with his time playing in the corner outfield last season, is an indicator of his utility value for manager Scott Servais, which should help Moore retain a roster spot despite hitting just .207 last season over 145 at-bats.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Picks up seventh steal

  Rotowire Sep 8, 2023

  Moore went 1-for-2 with one double, one RBI and one steal in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Rays. The 31-year-old has been losing his grip on playing time since Josh Rojas arrived at the trade deadline, garnering just 16 starts since Aug. 1. Moore made the most of his first start since Sept. 2 though, swiping his seventh bag of the year. After attempting just four steals on the season before Aug. 28, this was his fifth attempted steal and fourth successful pilfer since that date.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Back to bench Sunday

  Rotowire Sep 3, 2023

  Moore is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets. Moore had picked up starts in the corner outfield in four of the past five games, going 1-for-10 with a pair of stolen bases and an RBI over that stretch. Cade Marlowe will get the starting nod in left field Sunday, but both he and Moore could be in store for fewer opportunities in the outfield in the near future with Jarred Kelenic (foot) closing in on a return from the 10-day injured list.

One day after belting a pair of homers, Moore struck with a small-ball-themed multi-hit effort that pushed his average up another 33 points. The month of August has been transformative for Moore's previously abysmal campaign, as he's now boasting a .378 average and 1.222 OPS across the 43 plate appearances covering his last 14 games.

  Rotowire Aug 19, 2023

  Moore went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a solo home run in Saturday's 10-3 victory over the Astros. Moore launched his sixth and seventh long balls of 2023 onSaturday, marking his first career multi-homer game. However, he struck out in his other two at-bats, increasing his strikeout rate to 37 percent on the year. Overall, the outing broke Moore out of a cold snap, as he entered the game 2-for-17 (.117) across his last six appearances.

• Mariners' Dylan Moore: Back in lineup

  Rotowire Aug 12, 2023

  Moore (undisclosed) will bat seventh and play shortstop Saturday against the Orioles. Moore was scratched from Friday's lineup with an undisclosed issue, but whatever was ailing him was evidently minor. He could be in line for a run of starts at shortstop after J.P. Crawford landed on the injured list with a concussion Friday, though Jose Caballero will also be in the mix.

  Moore was a late scratch from the Mariners' lineup Friday against the Orioles, Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports. No reason was given, but Moore is presumably dealing with some sort of injury. Jose Caballero has entered the lineup at shortstop and will bat eighth.
