Seattle Mariners: Stock Up, Stock Down 5/16-22/22
Each week, PNWS evaluates the Seattle Mariners players. We’ll feature those who are playing well and those who are not playing well. This is the stock report for May 16-22, 2022.
Every week, PNWS evaluates the Seattle Mariners, whose play is good (stock up) and not so good (stock down), based on their last seven days of performances. Then, we’ll add what insight we can provide or have learned. Here we go looking back at the week of 5/16-5/22.
Hitters (stock up)
Eugenio Suarez – After consecutive weeks of featuring on the stock down section, Mr 200 moves to the stock up. This past week, he went 9/28, 7 runs, three doubles, two home runs, 3 RBIs, one walk, and nine strikeouts for a .321 avg. He clobbered his 200th career home run.
Adam Frazier – Another week of Frazier being a positive on a struggling team. This week he went 8/28, 4 runs, one home run, 4 RBIs, two walks, and four strikeouts for a .284 avg. Just keep the hits coming.
Abraham Toro – Prior to going on the 10-day IL for a shoulder sprain, Toro was having a good week, going 5/19, 3 runs, two home runs, 3 RBIs, one walk, and four strikeouts for a .263 avg. He’s been one of the unluckiest hitters to start the year and appeared to be turning it around. Hopefully, this injury doesn’t keep him out longer than the required 10-days. The Seattle Mariners can use all the good hitters it can.
Penn Murfee – The 2018 33rd-round draft choice makes GM Jerry Dipoto and his scouting department look great. This week he went 3.2 innings, walking 2, striking out 5, for a 0 ERA and a .82 WHIP.
