Availability
Nick Margevicius has signed a minor league contract with the San Francisco Giants. According to reports, he will receive $825K if he reaches the Majors.
Fantasy Impact
Margevicius has not pitched in the Majors since 2021 when he appeared in five games (three starts) with the Mariners. All told, Margevicius is 4-11 with a 6.12 ERA in 110.1 Major League innings between San Diego and Seattle. Last season, the southpaw pitched for Triple-A Toledo in the Tigers' organization and posted a 5-3 record with a 3.89 ERA and 70 strikeouts in 74 innings. More than likely, this is an organizational depth signing.
Mariners pitcher Nick Margevicius is set to see a specialist to determine a root cause for the shoulder inflammation.
Fantasy Impact
Margevicius will then consider rehab options. He remains without a timetable to return.
The Mariners placed pitcher Nick Margevicius on the 10-day injured list Monday due to left shoulder inflammation.
Fantasy Impact
It is possible that this shoulder injury had an impact on Margevicius's lack of control in his start Sunday against Boston. Robert Dugger was recalled from the alternate training site. With Margevicius being part of the six-man rotation for Seattle, Ljay Newsome is a potential candidate to take over that role next time through the rotation.
Nick Margevicius took the loss Sunday against Boston, recording just one out while allowing four runs on two hits with one strikeout and four walks.
Fantasy Impact
This was a start to forget for Margevicius, who could not even get out of the first inning. After loading the bases with nobody out, he was able to strike out Xander Bogaerts for the first out of the inning. It all went downhill from there, however, as he allowed a single before walking two straight hitters with the bases loaded when he was taken out of the game.
Mariners starter Nick Margevicius left Sunday's start early in the fifth inning against Houston.
Fantasy Impact
Margevicius had thrown 4+ innings, allowing one (unearned) run on one hit with three strikeouts and zero walks. He suffered the injury against the first batter he faced in the fifth inning when a trainer came out before he was removed from the game. LJay Newsome entered the game out of the bullpen. Margevicius replaced James Paxton in the Mariners six-man rotation so if he is to miss extended time, Seattle will either need to move back to the usual five-man rotation or find the next man up to fill that open spot in the current rotation.
