Rays' Ben Williamson: Idle against righty
Williamson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
The 25-year-old was part of the Opening Day lineup against lefty Matthew Liberatore, but he's been held out of the starting nine for two straight games versus right-handers. Williamson will handle the short side of a platoon at second base with Richie Palacios until the Rays get Gavin Lux (shoulder) back from the injured list.

Rays' Ben Williamson: Sitting Saturday
Williamson is not in Tampa Bay's starting lineup against St. Louis on Saturday.

Rays' Ben Williamson: Turning heads in camp
Williamson has impressed manager Kevin Cash this spring with his ability to handle second base and shortstop in addition to his burgeoning power, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.
"The bat has really come to life," Cash said of Williamson. "He's a big, strong guy and the power has kind of showed up here. He's had some big at-bats and drives the ball well, so it looks like he can really help us." Acquired this offseason from Seattle, Williamson is hitting .375 with two home runs, two steals and a 5:4 K:BB in 36 plate appearances this spring. While the righty-hitting Williamson figures to be in the lineup against lefties, his strong spring and quality defense at multiple positions opens the door for him to find work against righties as well.

Rays' Ben Williamson: Heading to Tampa Bay
The Rays acquired Williamson from the Mariners on Monday as part of a three-team trade involving the Cardinals, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.
Brendan Donovan is headed to Seattle as part of the deal. Williamson is a glove-first third baseman who slashed just .253/.294/.310 with one homer in 85 regular-season games for the Mariners in 2025. He is now stuck behind Junior Caminero in Tampa Bay, so Williamson could begin the 2026 campaign at Triple-A Durham.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Optioned to Triple-A
Williamson was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.
Williamson had been the Mariners third baseman prior to the Eugenio Suarez acquisition, and it makes more sense for Williamson to be playing every day at Triple-A than playing sparingly in the majors. Known more for his glove than his bat, Williamson is slashing .253/.294/.310 with one home run and five steals in 85 games as a rookie.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Records fifth steal
Williamson went 1-for-4 with one RBI and one stolen base in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Angels.
Williamson has started to make a larger impact on the basepaths with three steals over his last six games. He's still not doing much else, though -- during that span, he's gone 5-for-20 (.250) with two RBI, one walk and no extra-base hits. That's right in line with his production all year, as he's batting .254 but he has a poor .598 OPS with five steals, one home run, 21 RBI and 35 runs scored as a fixture at the bottom of the Mariners' lineup.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Logs steal in loss
Williamson went 2-for-3 with a stolen base in Monday's 6-0 loss to the Brewers.
Williamson had gone 0-for-8 over his previous three games, and this was just his second multi-hit effort in July. The rookie third baseman continues to earn his playing time through steady defense rather than big contributions on offense. For the season, he's slashing .259/.293/.319 with one home run, 19 RBI, 35 runs scored and three steals across 76 contests, giving him minimal upside as a contact hitter with little pop at the bottom of the order.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Day off Thursday
Williamson isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees.
Williamson will take a seat Thursday after collecting a base hit in each of the first two games of the series. Miles Mastrobuoni will fill in as Seattle's third baseman and bat ninth.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Idle Sunday
Williamson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.
Miles Mastrobuoni will get the nod at third base while Williamson heads to the bench for the series finale. The rookie had started in each of the Mariners' previous five games, going 4-for-14 with three doubles, two walks, two runs and two RBI.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Sitting for second time in three games
Williamson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.
The rookie will head to the bench for the second time in three games while Miles Mastrobuoni gets the nod at third base. Though Williamson has produced an adequate .254 batting average since being promoted from Triple-A Tacoma on April 13, he's drawn walks at a weak 4.1 percent rate and isn't hitting for much power (.052 ISO). Mastrobuoni profiles as more of a utility player and might not be a serious threat to unseat Williamson atop the depth chart, but Seattle could look outside the organization for an upgrade at third base prior to the July 31 trade deadline if the team remains in the thick of the playoff picture.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Absent from Saturday's lineup
Williamson is not in Seattle's starting lineup against Texas on Saturday.
Miles Mastrobuoni will start at the keystone and bat eighth while Williamson begins Saturday's game on the bench. Williamson has gone 6-for-18 (.333) with four runs scored over his last five starts.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: On bench Sunday
Williamson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.
Williamson started the previous five games but will hit the bench Sunday after going 3-for-17 during that stretch. Miles Mastrobuoni will step in at the hot corner and bat ninth in the series finale at Chicago.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Getting Sunday off
Williamson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Miles Mastrobuoni will cover third base in the series finale while Williamson sits after starting each of the Mariners' last eight games. Williamson is batting a credible .256 over 50 games since earning a call-up from Triple-A Tacoma on April 13, but he isn't providing much in the way of fantasy juice. He's logged just one home run and two stolen bases, and both his run (25) and RBI (13) totals have been weighted down due to the fact that he typically bats eighth or ninth in the order.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Grabbing seat Thursday
Williamson is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Orioles.
Williamson started at third base in each of the previous 15 contests for the Mariners, but he'll get a breather in Thursday's afternoon tilt. Miles Mastrobuoni will fill in at the hot corner and hit eighth as Seattle tries to avoid the sweep.

Mariners' Ben Williamson: Picks up steal in loss
Williamson went 2-for-3 with a double, a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Angels.
Williamson went 0-for-7 with three strikeouts over his first three games in June, leading to a day off to reset Thursday. He bounced back well Friday, earning his fourth multi-hit effort in his last nine games. The third baseman hasn't shown much power, but he's slashing .252/.285/.311 with one home run, two steals, 13 RBI and 23 runs scored over 43 contests while hitting at the bottom of the order.
