Availability
Alex Hoppe optioned to Triple-A Tacoma
Hoppe split time between Triple-A Worcester and Double-A Portland in Boston's organization last season, posting a 4.55 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 73:34 K:BB across 61.1 innings. Acquired from the Red Sox in November, he was added to Seattle's 40-man roster heading into 2026 but has yet to make his big-league debut.
Fantasy Impact
The Mariners optioned Hoppe to Triple-A Tacoma Wednesday, and he could factor into Seattle's bullpen picture later in the season.
Alex Hoppe traded to Mariners
The Mariners have acquired right-hander Alex Hoppe from the Red Sox in exchange for Minor League catcher Luke Heyman.
Fantasy Impact
Hoppe will look to compete for a depth role in the bullpen for Seattle. The Mariners designated Tayler Saucedo for assignment as the corresponding move.
