Hancock Adductor Strain Opens Mariners Rotation Spot
Seattle lost starter Emerson Hancock to an adductor strain, leaving the team thin on rotation depth heading into late September.
Emerson Hancock suffered an adductor strain over the weekend, forcing the Mariners to seek rotation depth. Seattle currently has no other starting pitchers on optional assignment. The team signed Simeon Woods Richardson to a Triple-A deal partly in response to the vacancy. Woods Richardson's availability as a call-up option depends on his performance with Tacoma.
