Luis Torrens

Luis Torrens hit a pinch-hit home run against Oakland on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Torrens was just called up from Triple-A and pinch-hit for Abraham Toro with two outs in the eighth inning when he crushed a solo home run. It was the only Mariners run on the night as they have been held to just one run in back-to-back games against Oakland.

The Seattle Mariners designated Luis Torrens for assignment Thursday.

It is a brutal business sometimes as Torrens just came through with a pinch-hit, walk-off single for Seattle against the Yankees on Tuesday. Nonetheless, this was expected after the Mariners acquired Curt Casali at the trade deadline.

Luis Torrens hit a pinch-hit walk-off single Tuesday in the 13th inning against the Yankees.

Fantasy Impact

What a game this was. With the Mariners pinch-hitting Carlos Santana earlier in extra innings, that led to the pitcher position being due up No. 9 for the Mariners which led to Torrens pinch-hitting in that instance. After 12 1/2 innings of scoreless baseball from both sides, Torrens came through with a single to lift the Mariners to a 1-0 victory.

Luis Torrens went 2-for-4 with one RBI, one run and one strikeout in Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Angels.

Fantasy Impact

Torrens hit his first home run of the season in the fifth inning, which was also the only run of the night for the Mariners. It is likely he will either be sent down to Triple-A or designated for assignment once Curt Casali --- who the Mariners acquired at the trade deadline --- is healthy.

The Mariners activated Luis Torrens off the injured list Saturday.

Fantasy Impact

Torrens injured his shoulder in the brawl against the Angels last month. He hit a home run in a rehab game with High-A Everett on Friday. He'll return to what will likely be a backup catcher role behind Cal Raleigh.
