As he works back from a knee injury, Mariners' reliever Tayler Saucedo posted a solid first rehab assignment at Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.
Saucedo landed on the 15-day injured list a little over two weeks ago with a hyperextended right knee. Because he hasn't missed much time, the left-handed reliever shouldn't need more than a couple rehab appearances, setting himself up for a return within the next few days.The 30-year-old fan-favorite went on the injured list with a scary knee injury while covering first base during the Twins series, so it's good to see him up and pitching again so quickly.
Saucedo has become a fan favorite because of his connection to Seattle, having gone to high school in the city, and his funny interactions on social media,In addition to his career with the M's, he's also played for the Blue Jays. He's 4-2 lifetime with a 4.03 ERA. The Mariners will play the Washington Nationals on Friday night in the nation's capital. Right-hander George Kirby will toe the rubber for the M's. He's 4-4 with a 3.99 ERA at this point in the year.
