Slugs two homers Haniger went 2-for-5 with a pair of two-run home runs in Thursday's 10-9 win over the Rangers in extra innings.

Impact Haniger accounted for the Mariners' first four runs, homering in the first and third innings. He's produced multiple hits in four of his last seven games, but the power show is encouraging after he went 25 contests without a homer. The right fielder is up to nine long balls, 31 RBI, 27 runs scored and a .239/.301/.405 slash line through 52 games this year.

Productive in defeat Haniger went 3-for-6 with a double, two runs, two RBI and a strikeout during Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Royals.

Impact Haniger went 0-for-6 with three walks and four strikeouts over the first two games of the series in Kansas City, but he was much more productive during Sunday's high-scoring series finale. The 31-year-old's double in the top of the seventh inning was his first extra-base hit since Sept. 2, and he's now struck out in 21 consecutive games dating back to Aug. 28.

Busy night on basepaths Thursday Haniger went 2-for-5 with an RBI single, a double and two runs in a win over the Athletics on Thursday.

Impact Haniger was a big part of the Mariners' fast start, plating Julio Rodriguez (back) with the first run of the game via a first-inning single and then subsequently coming around to score on Cal Raleigh's double. The veteran outfielder has shown some signs of life at the plate of late after a recent 0-for-17, seven-game slump, hitting safely in three of the past four contests.

Crosses plate twice Monday Haniger went 1-for-3 with a walk and two runs in a win over the Angels on Monday.

Impact Haniger had just returned to the lineup Sunday after missing four games with lower-back tightness but had gone 0-for-4 with two strikeouts. Monday's outing was therefore a lot more productive, and it snapped an 0-for-20 slump for Haniger that dated back to Sept. 7. The fact the veteran outfielder was able to play a full game in the outfield for the second consecutive day also seems to indicate his previously ailing back is back to full health.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Hitless in return Haniger (back) went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Angels.

Impact Haniger missed four games with lower-back tightness. His return to the lineup was a quiet one, and he's now gone 0-for-17 across his last five games. The slump has dropped him to a .228/.282/.389 slash line through 42 contests this year, and he's added seven home runs, 23 RBI, 19 runs scored and six doubles. He should still see regular playing time in right field and as the designated hitter going forward.

Checks back into lineup Haniger (back) will start in right field and bat third in Sunday's game against the Angels.

Impact Haniger is back in action to close out the weekend after he missed the Mariners' last four games on account of lower-back tightness. The Mariners' decision to deploy Haniger in the outfield rather than at designated hitter in his first game back seemingly implies that the team is confident in the 31-year-old's health moving forward.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • Associated Press

Set to return Sunday Haniger (back) is expected to start Sunday against the Angels, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Haniger hasn't played since leaving last Sunday's contest against Atlanta with lower-back tightness, but his absence won't stretch on for much longer. He tested his back while swinging and running prior to Friday's game against the Angels and evidently felt fine, as he may even make an appearance as a pinch hitter Saturday.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined Haniger (back) remains on the bench Saturday against the Angels.

Impact Haniger left Sunday's game against Atlanta with tightness in his lower back and hasn't seen the field since. It's still not clear exactly when he'll return, though he was at least able to swing and run prior to Friday's series opener. Sam Haggerty will be the right fielder Saturday.

Out again Friday Haniger (back) is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Angels.

Impact Haniger hasn't seen the field since Sunday due to a back issue, and his absence will continue in Friday's series opener. Jake Lamb is starting in right field while Carlos Santana serves as the designated hitter.
