Engel signed a minor-league contract Tuesday with the Mariners, Mike Curto of the Tacoma Rainiers reports.

EDGE Analysis

Engel has already reported to Triple-A Tacoma and is in the starting lineup Tuesday night against the Triple-A affiliate of the Giants. The 31-year-old outfielder was released by the Padres last week, having spent most of his time with that organization stuck in recovery mode from a March hamstring strain.

The Padres released Engel on Wedensday.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old outfielder held a .620 OPS in Triple-A and went 0-for-6 at the plate in his brief major-league stint. Engel now has the opportunity to sign on with another team as organizational depth.

Engel was designated for assignment by the Padres on Saturday, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Engel comes off the 40- and 26-man roster after the Padres activated Jose Azocar (elbow) off the 10-day injured list. Engel has appeared in just five games with the Padres, and the outfielder didn't pick up a hit in his six at-bats in those contests. If he goes unclaimed, Engel could report back to Triple-A El Paso to provide some organizational depth.

Engel (hamstring) was reinstated off the 10-day injured list by the Padres on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Engel ended up missing well over a month with his hamstring strain. The outfielder will take the place of Jose Azocar with Azocar placed on the 10-day IL with left elbow inflammation. Engel should operate as a backup outfielder now that he's back on the roster.

Engel (hamstring) played his fourth minor-league rehab game Wednesday with Triple-A El Paso, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Engel went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts Wednesday versus Triple-A Tacoma, but the positive news is that he was 3-for-9 with two doubles, four walks and two stolen bases in his three games prior. The 31-year-old outfielder appears on track to return from the 10-day injured list and join the Padres within the next few days as he completes his recovery from a late-March hamstring strain.

Engel (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment Saturday with Triple-A El Paso.

EDGE Analysis

Engel landed on the injured list March 30, just before the start of the 2023 regular season, after suffering a left hamstring strain toward end of spring training. He should be an option for the Padres' outfield by the end of the coming week.

Engel (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to March 27.

EDGE Analysis

Engel suffered a left hamstring strain at the end of spring training and will miss at least the first couple weeks of the 2023 regular season.

Engel is expected to begin the season on the injured list due to a hamstring injury he suffered Thursday, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Engel dealt with a calf strain early on in camp and has been plagued by hamstring problems the last few years. It's not clear at this point how long this one might sideline him, but he might have been in line for some playing time early with Fernando Tatis (suspension) unavailable for the first few weeks and Juan Soto (oblique) potentially sidelined as well.

Engel (calf) will bat eighth and play left field Saturday against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Engel had been sitting out of spring action due to a right calf strain. Barring setbacks, he should still have time to build up by Opening Day. He should serve as the Padres' fourth or fifth outfielder this season.

Engel has yet to make a Cactus League appearance due to a strained right calf, Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's not clear when Engel might be cleared for game action, but given that he derives most of his value from his legs, the Padres surely will proceed cautiously. If healthy, Engel is expected to operate as an extra outfielder for the Friars.
