Julio Rodriguez Back in Uniform | Oakland News

Julio Rodriguez is back in the Mariners lineup after a concussion sidelined him since July 3rd, now activated as the designated hitter batting second — a major boost for the team as he’s already hit 14 homers and driven in 40 runs this season. To make room, utilityman Miles Mastrobuoni was designated for assignment. Meanwhile, All-Star Brendan Donovan begins his rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma after missing time with a groin strain, though his first game didn’t go well — 0 for 3 with three strikeouts. Both players’ returns could be game-changers as the Mariners look to regain momentum. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
