Mariners Call Up Dominant Prospect Kade Anderson for Saturday Start
The 22-year-old lefty posted a 1.06 ERA with 135 strikeouts in 93⅓ innings at Double-A and will debut against the Cubs.
The Seattle Mariners are promoting left-handed pitching prospect Kade Anderson to the major league roster for a start on August 22 against the Chicago Cubs. Anderson, the third overall pick in the 2023 draft out of LSU, dominated Double-A hitters this season with a 10-1 record, 1.06 ERA, and 135 strikeouts in 93⅓ innings across 18 starts. The Mariners sit at 60-68, currently 4.5 games back in the AL West and 3 games out of a wild card spot. The call-up comes as Seattle looks to reverse a disappointing season that included a 22-0 loss to Milwaukee earlier this week.
