Moore went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in a 6-4 loss to Boston on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Moore began the game on the bench but entered as a pinch hitter for Dominic Canzone in the seventh inning. The move paid off for Seattle, as Moore slammed a 409-foot, two-run shot to center to bring the Mariners to within a run. Moore slashed .378/.511/.595 with two long balls this spring, but he's had contact issues throughout his big-league career and isn't slated for an everyday role this year, so his fantasy outlook is limited.

Moore went 3-for-3 with an RBI single, a three-run home run, a stolen base and an additional run in a Cactus League win over the Rockies on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Moore operated out of the leadoff spot while starting at shortstop, and his dominant showing at the plate pushed his Cactus League batting average to .393 across 28 at-bats. Moore has compiled a double, Tuesday's homer, seven RBI, eight walks, three stolen bases and seven runs this spring, a particularly welcome sign after he slashed .199/.311/.370 over the last three seasons. However, he also produced a 30.4 percent strikeout rate over that span, and his 13 strikeouts this spring is a warning sign those issues aren't behind him.

Moore went 0-for-3 in Wednesday's 8-7 over the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Moore has been looking sharp thus far in the spring Wednesday excluded, hitting .364 with an .864 OPS over 11 at-bats. The 31-year-old has been in the lead-off spot several times while also playing three different infield positions. This versatility, paired with his time playing in the corner outfield last season, is an indicator of his utility value for manager Scott Servais, which should help Moore retain a roster spot despite hitting just .207 last season over 145 at-bats.

Moore went 1-for-2 with one double, one RBI and one steal in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Moore has been losing his grip on playing time since Josh Rojas arrived at the trade deadline, garnering just 16 starts since Aug. 1. The 31-year-old made the most of his first start since Sept. 2 by swiping his seventh bag. After attempting just four steals on the season before Aug. 28, this was his fifth attempted steal (fourth success) since that date.

Moore is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Moore had picked up starts in the corner outfield in four of the past five games, going 1-for-10 with a pair of stolen bases and an RBI over that stretch. Cade Marlowe will get the starting nod in left field Sunday, but both he and Moore could be in store for fewer opportunities in the outfield in the near future with Jarred Kelenic (foot) closing in on a return from the 10-day injured list.

Moore went 1-for-3 with a walk, one RBI and a stolen base in Monday's 7-0 win over the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Moore is hitting .300 (15-for-50) with three home runs and two steals over 20 games in August while occupying a part-time role. The utilityman is up to four thefts in five attempts this year. He's batting .240 with an .862 OPS, seven homers, 17 RBI, 14 runs scored, five doubles and a triple over 109 plate appearances while providing cover all around the field.

Moore went 4-for-5 with an RBI single in a win over the Astros on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

One day after belting a pair of homers, Moore struck with a small-ball-themed multi-hit effort that pushed his average up another 33 points. The month of August has been transformative for Moore's previously abysmal campaign, as he's now boasting a .378 average and 1.222 OPS across the 43 plate appearances covering his last 14 games.

Moore went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a solo home run in Saturday's 10-3 victory over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Moore launched his sixth and seventh long balls of 2023 Saturday, marking his first career multi-homer game. However, he struck out in his other two at-bats, increasing his strikeout rate to 37 percent on the year. Overall, the outing broke Moore out of a cold snap, as he entered the game 2-for-17 (.117) across his last six appearances.

Moore is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Jose Caballero will start at shortstop and Josh Rojas will cover second base as the Mariners take on the Astros and right-hander J.P. France. Moore has played well when healthy this season, but he generally fares better versus lefties than righties.

Moore (undisclosed) went 1-for-4 in Saturday's 1-0 extra-inning loss to the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

The reason for Moore's absence Friday was not revealed, but he was back in action and played the full game at shortstop Saturday. The utility man is hitting .368 (.7-for-19) over 21 plate appearances in August, which has helped him earn semi-steady playing time. Overall, Moore has a .231/.315/.569 slash line with five home runs, two stolen bases, 12 RBI and 10 runs scored through 73 plate appearances this season.
