McGee loses no-hit bid in 7th inning of 1st MLB start

Seattle Mariners pitcher Easton McGee took a no-hitter into the seventh inning of his first major league start before Matt Chapman doubled off the center-field wall for the Toronto...

Called up for start Saturday McGee was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma and will start for the Mariners on Saturday in Toronto.

Impact Chris Flexen had been listed as the probable starter for Seattle, but McGee will instead get the call against a dangerous Blue Jays lineup. The 25-year-old right-hander was sporting a 3.14 ERA and 24:9 K:BB through 28.2 innings (five starts) this season at the Triple-A level. He's an iffy fantasy bet in the afternoon matchup at Rogers Centre, but there could be more favorable assignments ahead if he sticks around in Flexen's rotation spot.

Dispatched to minors The Mariners optioned McGee to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.

Impact McGee was one of seven players Seattle sent out of big-league camp Sunday in the team's latest round of roster cuts. The 25-year-old right-hander is entering his first season in the Mariners organization after being acquired from the Red Sox in November. McGee, who received a cup of coffee in the majors with Tampa Bay in 2022, otherwise spent the entire 2022 campaign at Triple-A Durham, where he logged a 5.43 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 82:20 K:BB across 107.2 innings.

Mariners add pitchers Gabe Speier, Easton McGee to roster

The Seattle Mariners claimed left-handed pitcher Gabe Speier off waivers from Kansas City and acquired right-handed pitcher Easton McGee from Boston in exchange for cash

Dealt to M's The Mariners acquired McGee from the Red Sox on Wednesday in exchange for cash considerations.

Impact McGee will take up a spot on the Mariners' 40-man roster, but because he still has three minor-league options remaining, Seattle will have the luxury of stashing him at Triple-A Tacoma to begin the 2023 campaign if he's unable to secure a spot in the big club's Opening Day bullpen. The 24-year-old righty made his big-league debut with the Rays in 2022, tossing three scoreless frames in his lone appearance out of the bullpen.

Scooped up by BoSox The Red Sox claimed McGee off waivers from the Rays on Wednesday.

Impact Boston didn't formally activate McGee prior to Wednesday's contest, so he won't be available out of the bullpen while the Red Sox close out their regular season Wednesday against the right-hander's former Rays organization. McGee made his big-league debut Sunday in Houston, giving up an unearned run in three innings out of the bullpen.

Booted off 40-man roster The Rays designated McGee for assignment Monday.

Impact Even though he impressed while working three innings and allowing an unearned run in long relief in his MLB debut during Sunday's 3-1 loss to Houston, McGee finds himself as the latest victim of Tampa Bay's continual roster churn. The Rays selected the contract of right-hander Kevin Herget to replace McGee in the bullpen.

Three relief innings in debut McGee allowed one unearned run on four hits and no walks while striking out one over three innings in Sunday's 3-1 loss against Houston.

Impact In his major league debut, McGee entered the game in the sixth inning with the Rays down 2-1 and pitched well. He surrendered just one unearned run after a Jonathan Aranda throwing error and a Jeremy Pena base hit in the seventh inning. McGee may get one or two more looks before the end of the regular season, but it is unclear whether he will make it onto the playoff roster.

Contract selected by Tampa Bay McGee had his contract selected by the Rays on Thursday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Impact The 24-year-old has a 5.43 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 82:20 K:BB across 107.2 innings at Triple-A Durham this year and will now receive his first taste of the majors. McGee started in 22 of 27 outings at Triple-A this season but should serve as an option out of the bullpen for the Rays.
