Woo allowed two runs on three hits and struck out nine without walking a batter over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the White Sox on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Woo was sharp, though two of the three hits he allowed were solo home runs by Gavin Sheets and Andrew Benintendi. After a rough debut, Woo has turned in a couple of reasonably solid starts. He's still at a 7.30 ERA and 1.30 WHIP through 12.1 innings, but his 20:2 K:BB is a positive sign that he has the control to hang around in the majors. He'll remain in search of his first win next week in a projected road start versus the Yankees.

Woo allowed two runs on four hits and a walk while striking out seven over 4.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
After getting tagged for six runs in two innings in his debut versus Texas, Woo was much improved against another AL West rival. He still needed 81 pitches (56 strikes) to get 14 outs, falling one-third of an inning short of qualifying for his first win. The blemish on his line Saturday was a two-run home run from Shohei Ohtani. Woo has managed an 11:2 K:BB over 6.2 innings to begin his major-league career -- his strikeout stuff has carried over from Double-A Arkansas, where he racked up 59 strikeouts in 44 innings this season. Assuming he gets another start, he's tentatively projected to face the White Sox in Seattle next week.

Mariners GM Justin Hollander said prior to Tuesday's game against the Padres that Woo will remain in the rotation for the time being, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woo struggled mightily in his MLB debut against the Rangers on Saturday while allowing seven runs in just two innings of work. With Marco Gonzales (forearm) on the shelf and Tommy Milone (shoulder) on the minor-league 7-day injured list, the Mariners will give one of the top prospects in their system at least one more chance through the rotation. His ability to miss bats in the minors makes Woo an intriguing long-term bet, but there's just as much risk as there is reward for redraft leagues.

Woo (0-1) was the pitcher of record in Saturday's 16-6 loss to the Rangers, allowing six runs on seven hits and one walk over two innings. He struck out four.
EDGE Analysis
Marco Gonzales (forearm) was placed on the injured list, so Woo was recalled from Double-A Arkansas and made his MLB debut Saturday. The outing certainly didn't go as planned for the 23-year-old, who was dominating in the minors, and it's unclear if he'll get another turn in the rotation. However, Seattle would likely have to select a player from the minors if it isn't going to give Woo another chance.

Woo was reassigned to minor-league camp by the Mariners on Friday,Corey Brock of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Woo is considered one of the better pitching prospects in the Seattle system and registered a 84:22 K:BB in 57 innings with a 4.11 ERA for short-season Arizona, Low-A Modesto and High-A Everett. He likely begins the season in Double-A Arkansas, and could be an option for the Mariners in the 2024 season.
