ST. PETERSBURG -- When the Mariners come out of the All-Star break on Friday, it seems likely that they will have Julio Rodríguez in the lineup for that night’s game against the Giants at T-Mobile Park. Manager Dan Wilson said prior to the team’s first-half finale against the Rays at

SEATTLE -- Two days removed from being hit in the head by a throw, Julio Rodríguez was back in the outfield at T-Mobile Park on Sunday afternoon, playing catch ahead of the Mariners’ final home game of the first half against the Blue Jays. Rodríguez exited the Mariners’ game against

SEATTLE -- After two weeks of hit after hit on the injury front, the Mariners finally had some real reinforcements waiting for them when they returned to the Pacific Northwest to open a six-game homestand Tuesday. And major reinforcements, at that.

SEATTLE -- The Mariners returned their star catcher and the longest-tenured shortstop in franchise history ahead of Tuesday’s homestand-opener against the Orioles.
