Paul Sewald (elbow, heel) should be ready for camp

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Paul Sewald should be ready for the opening of spring training following offseason elbow and heel procedures.

Fantasy Impact

The elbow and heel procedures were only minor and all signs point toward a healthy spring for the right-hander. Sewald enjoyed a fine 2022 season that included a 2.67 ERA and 29.8% K% along with 20 saves across 65 appearances. He should collect more saves in 2023 but will see competition from Andres Munoz -- also recovering from an injury -- for closing duties.

Paul Sewald has procedure on heel and elbow

Paul Sewald had a procedure on his heel and a clean-up on his right elbow.

Fantasy Impact

Sewald is expected to be fully healthy by Spring Training, but it is an interesting development. It is possible he was pitching through some pain last year, which makes his 2.67 ERA and 0.77 WHIP even more impressive. While many are chasing saves with Andres Munoz, I expect Sewald still to see a decent share of the closer role.

Paul Sewald allows pair of home runs Thursday

Paul Sewald allowed two runs on two hits across one inning Thursday against the Rangers to go along with one strikeout and one walk.

Fantasy Impact

Sewald entered the seventh inning with the Mariners leading 7-4. That lead was cut to one run after Marcus Semien and Nathaniel Lowe launched back-to-back home runs. The Rangers ended up tying the game in the eighth inning off Andres Munoz, but the Mariners were able to earn the win in extra innings.

Paul Sewald earns the win Saturday

Paul Sewald earned the win Saturday against the Royals, allowing one hit across two shutout innings.

Fantasy Impact

Sewald entered a 5-5 game in the seventh inning. After a 1-2-3 frame where he threw eight pitches, Sewald was sent back out for another frame where he worked around a Vinnie Pasquantino single who has thrown out trying to stretch it into a double.
