Yankees signed C Mitch Garver to a minor league contract.

Garver struggled this year for the Mariners, hitting .175/.302/.294 with four homers in 149 plate appearances. The 35-year-old should have a shot to make New York’s playoff roster.

Mariners released C Mitch Garver.

Garver hit .175/.302/.294 with four homers and 15 RBI in 149 plate appearances this season. He should be able to latch on somewhere as emergency catching depth, if he plans to keep on playing.

Mitch Garver hit a two-run homer off the Blue Jays’ Trey Yesavage in the Mariners’ win Sunday.

After doing a nice job while Cal Raleigh was on the injured list (.238/.304/.476 with three homers in 15 games), Garver, who was starting for the first time in seven days, is back to playing pretty seldomly since Raleigh returned. The homer today was his first this season with Raleigh on the active roster. He’s hitting just .194/.325/.330 overall.

Dominic Canzone is not in the Mariners’ starting lineup for Sunday’s matinee against the Blue Jays.

Canzone homered and drove in three runs on Saturday night, so the timing off the off day is a bit curious, though the Mariners are likely just trying to keep him fresh. Cal Raleigh will function as the team’s designated hitter in his place while Mitch Garver draws his first start of the week behind the dish and will bat seventh for the M’s against Trey Yesavage and the Blue Jays.

Dominic Canzone (hamstring) is not in the Mariners’ lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Guardians in Cleveland.

Canzone has been battling a right hamstring issue, and the Mariners are being careful with his workload to ensure that they don’t aggravate it. Cal Raleigh will function as the Mariners’ designated hitter on Sunday while Mitch Garver draws a start behind the dish and will bat seventh.

Mitch Garver went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run on Friday against the Royals.

Garver’s two-run shot off Royals’ reliever Nick Mears drove home the only two runs scored in this game. This was only his second total hit in the eight days since taking over for the injured Cal Raleigh behind the plate, but both were home runs.

Mitch Garver (back) returns to Mariners’ lineup on Sunday.

Garver was scratched from the M’s lineup on Saturday due to tightness in his back, but it appears to have been only a minor issue. Expect him to see the bulk of the action behind the dish while Cal Raleigh (oblique) is shelved.

Mitch Garver was scratched from Saturday’s lineup against the Padres on Saturday.

Garver was a late scratch from Saturday’s game. It’s worth noting that the 35-year-old is expected to handle catching duties while Cal Raleigh (oblique) is unable to play, so if Garver needs to miss time, it’ll be Jhonny Pereda starting behind the plate until their return.

Brendan Donovan was scratched from Saturday’s lineup against the Padres.

Donovan wasn’t the only player scratched, as the Mariners also removed Mitch Garver from Saturday’s lineup. No reason has been given as to why either player was removed, but it’s very likely injury-related. Leo Rivas is now the third baseman, and Jonny Pereda will handle catching duties. There should be an update on both shortly.

Cal Raleigh (oblique) is not in the lineup on Thursday against the Astros.

Raleigh was removed from Wednesday’s game with “right-side discomfort,” but Mariners manager Dan Wilson said the move was precautionary. However, Raleigh also missed three games with right-side tightness last week, so this is clearly an ongoing issue. There’s a chance that the Mariners will place their All-Star on the injured list until this issue subsides fully. Mitch Garver will catch and bat eighth on Thursday.
