Moore will be working toward playing a full game on defense in coming days, but Thursday served as a good foundation for the resumption of his rehab assignment.

EDGE Analysis

Moore had to be pulled off his initial rehab assignment a month ago because of scar tissue that had built up following his core muscle surgery. He's ready to go again now, though, but figures to need a good number of rehab games before returning given how long he's been sidelined

Moore was taken off his rehab assignment from an oblique strain last week because of issues not from the strain but from his surgically repaired core muscle. The utility player underwent a cortisone shot in the area where he underwent the procedure.

EDGE Analysis

Moore clarified that it isn't the oblique strain that has sidelined him for the first three-plus weeks of the 2023 season but the core muscle area he underwent offseason surgery on over the winter.

EDGE Analysis

The valued utility player has been inching closer to game action, but the Mariners have remained cautious with him with an eye on having him available for the bulk of the season. Manager Scott Servais noted Moore's expected rehab assignment timetable is at least five games, considering he never had an opportunity to play in Cactus League games after being diagnosed with a Grade 1 left oblique strain.
