Haniger is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Haniger will hit the bench for the afternoon contest after he had started in each of Seattle's last six games while going 4-for-20 with a solo home run and five walks. The Mariners will likely continue to open up a lineup spot for Haniger against left-handed pitching, but his starting opportunities versus righties may be more sporadic, especially once Julio Rodriguez (ankle) and Dominic Canzone (adductor) return from the injured list.
