Sweats out 16th save Munoz earned a save against the Angels on Thursday, allowing two hits and walking one batter in one scoreless inning.

Impact Munoz had little margin for error when he took over in the ninth frame, as Seattle held a meager 1-0 lead. The veteran closer allowed the first two batters he faced to reach base and yielded three total baserunners in the inning, but a caught-stealing helped him escape without giving up the tying run. The unsteadiness has been typical for Munoz this season -- he's recorded 16 saves but has also blown five save opportunities while posting an uncharacteristic 4.60 ERA ad 1.34 WHIP. Nonetheless, he's locked into the closer role and has now successfully converted each of his past seven save chances.

Tallies 15th save Munoz struck out two batters in a perfect ninth inning to pick up his 15th save of the season in Friday's 3-1 win over Cleveland.

Impact Munoz struck out Kyle Manzardo and Brayan Rocchio to lead off the final frame before inducing a groundout from Kahlil Watson to end the game. With a 4.91 ERA through 29.1 innings, the 27-year-old hasn't been as reliable this year compared to past seasons, but he's now thrown five consecutive scoreless innings and earned a save in each of his last five appearances.

Nails down 14th save Munoz struck out the side in a perfect ninth inning Tuesday to record his 14th save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Pirates.

Impact The right-hander was at his dominant best, firing 12 of 16 pitches for strikes and popping triple digits on the radar gun with half his offerings, topping out at 102 mph. Munoz has been erratic this season, but he may be finding his form -- he's converted saves in four straight scoreless appearances while delivering a 7:2 K:BB in four innings.

2026 MLB Power Rankings: Reasons For Second-Half Optimism For All 30 Teams

Secures 13th save Munoz picked up the save in Sunday's 3-1 victory over the Red Sox. He allowed a hit and no walks while striking out two over a scoreless inning.

Impact Munoz had little trouble finishing off the Red Sox, working past a one-out single from Mickey Gasper by striking out Willson Contreras and Jarren Duran to secure his 13th save of the season. It has been an uneven season for the well-regarded closer, as he owns a 5.27 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 41:13 K:BB with five blown saves across 27.1 innings (30 appearances). Munoz has gotten the job done of late, though, converting saves in each of his three most recent outings with no runs allowed.

Collects 12th save Munoz earned the save Tuesday against the Orioles, allowing two walks while striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning.

Impact Munoz was handed a three-run lead in the ninth and made things a bit interesting. The right-hander issued walks to Gunnar Henderson and Samuel Basallo, bringing the tying run to the plate, but ultimately closed out the victory to secure his 12th save in 17 opportunities. He's recorded consecutive scoreless appearances for the first time since May 22. Munoz now owns a 5.47 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and a 39:13 K:BB across 26.1 innings.

Earns save Tuesday Munoz allowed a hit and struck out one without walking a batter in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Orioles.

Impact Munoz recently battled back tightness following a poor outing Sunday versus the Nationals. He was cleared to pitch earlier Tuesday and converted his 11th save of the season with 17 pitches (13 strikes). The right-hander has had a poor season with a 5.68 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 38:11 K:BB through 25.1 innings, which also includes five blown saves. However, his inconsistent performance hasn't cost him the closer job yet, and that's unlikely to change immediately since Matt Brash (lat) landed on the injured list last week. If Munoz hits another rough patch, Jose Ferrer, Gabe Speier or Eduard Bazardo would likely be candidates to challenge for save chances.

Cleared to play Munoz (back) will be available to pitch in Tuesday's game against Baltimore, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Timesreports.

Impact Munoz made an early exit from Sunday's contest due to back tightness, but he's been given a clean bill of health ahead of Tuesday's contest. The 27-year-old has recorded a team-high 10 saves on the season but hasn't been particularly reliable while doing so, logging a 5.92 ERA and 1.44 WHIP across 24.1 innings.

Battling tight back Munoz was removed from Sunday's game against the Nationals due to lower-back tightness, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Mariners closer entered for the ninth inning of a 7-1 game since he hadn't pitched in nearly a week, and he allowed both batters he faced to reach before departing with the injury. The initial diagnosis is encouraging since it's not an arm issue, and Munoz should be considered day-to-day heading into Tuesday's series opener versus Baltimore

JUNE 14 • ROTOWIRE

Departs with apparent injury Munoz was removed from Sunday's game against the Nationals due to an apparent injury, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Making his first appearance in nearly a week, Munoz allowed a hit and a walk on nine pitches before exiting the contest with training staff. It's the second notable injury of the day for Seattle, which also saw Josh Naylor (shin) depart after fouling a pitch off himself.

Dan Wilson and Mariners can't kid themselves and must shelve Andrés Muñoz as closer Andrés Muñoz hasn't been pitching well as the closer and should be replaced by someone else.

Picks up save No. 10 Munoz secured the save Monday against the Orioles, allowing no runs on no hits and one walk in the ninth inning. He struck out two.

Impact Baltimore made Munoz work Monday, as the hurler needed 20 pitches (11 strikes) to complete the frame. The hard-throwing right-hander is looking for some consistency as Seattle's closer, considering he's not yet converted four consecutive save opportunities at any point this year. Through 24.1 innings, Munoz has a shaky 5.18 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 37:10 K:BB with 10 saves in 15 attempts.
