Joe Saunders fell to 3-5 after giving up six runs in five innings against the Rangers on Friday.
The Mariners had to know Saunders would give up more than his share of homers and hits after adding him to their rotation; the surprise is that he's already walked 22 batters in 57 2/3 innings. Last year, he walked a total of 39 in 174 2/3 innings. Saunders is at best a matchup guy in AL-only leagues. He'll be worth playing next week when he gets a road start in San Diego.
May 25 - 1:36 AM
Joe Saunders gave up four runs in 5 1/3 innings Saturday in a no-decision against the Indians.
Saunders tied a season-high by giving up 11 hits, including a solo homer by Mark Reynolds. He now has an 11.25 ERA in five starts on the road this season compared to a 0.94 ERA in four starts at home. That pretty much says it all.
May 18 - 4:28 PM
Joe Saunders gave up one earned run on five hits over 6 1/3 innings Sunday against the Athletics.
It was a solid bounceback effort from Saunders, who allowed seven runs over five innings in his last outing. He managed to limit the A's to just two extra-base hits, three walks, and had six strikeouts. Saunders is good for the occasional quality start, but is still no more than AL-only option.
May 12 - 7:29 PM
Joe Saunders was shelled for seven earned runs over five innings Sunday in a loss to the Blue Jays.
Saunders twirled a complete game against the Orioles in his last start but was dreadful on Sunday afternoon in Toronto. The Jays tagged him for nine hits -- including two dingers -- and then beat up reliever Hector Noesi for three more runs. Saunders is now 2-4 with a 6.15 ERA and 1.56 WHIP. He is obviously not a fantasy option.

Justin Smoak
Sidelined
Justin Smoak left Saturday's game due to a strained oblique and will be reevaluated Sunday.
If Smoak lands on the DL, the Mariners would likely simply turn to Kendrys Morales or Michael Morse at first base, opening up extra at-bats for Jason Bay and Raul Ibanez. Rather than call up someone from Triple-A, they could activate Franklin Gutierrez.

Felix Hernandez
Sidelined
Felix Hernandez had a very uneven performance Saturday, striking out nine but allowing five runs over 5 2/3 innings in a loss to the Rangers.
When King Felix's stuff wavered, the powerful Rangers lineup capitalized, collecting nine hits and a home run. The Mariners' ace didn't have the best last few weeks. A back injury forced him out of a start against the Yankees on May 14 and he's surrendered 11 runs -- 10 earned -- in his next two outings. While one wonders if he's still dealing with some back tightness, fantasy owners aren't advised to remove him from starting lineups.

Aaron Harang
Sidelined
Aaron Harang was lit up for seven runs in 3 2/3 innings by the Angels on Tuesday.
Josh Hamilton and Howie Kendrick homered off him. Harang fell to 1-5 with an 8.58 ERA. The Mariners need to make a switch here, whether it's Jeremy Bonderman, Hector Noesi or James Paxton as the replacement. Erasmo Ramirez still isn't healthy, unfortunately.

Mariners transferred RHP Stephen Pryor from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.
Pryor now won't be eligible to return until mid-June, but he wasn't going to be ready before then, anyway. The hard-thrower recently resumed his throwing program but has yet to test things out from a mound.

Josh Kinney (shoulder, ribs) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Thursday with Triple-A Tacoma.
Kinney has been on the shelf all season because of a stress reaction in his left shoulder and rib cage. He's likely to spend around two weeks in the minor leagues.
