Fantasy Impact:

Rucker has pitched parts of three seasons in the majors - all with the Cubs - but has not seen big league action since 2023. The righthander has a 4.96 ERA across 123.1 career innings. He pitched in the Phillies and Nationals organizations in 2024 and then did not pitch at all in 2025. The 32-year-old will look to revive his career with the Mariners and is likely destined for Triple-A Tacoma.
