Evans (3-3) took the loss as the Mariners fell 9-6 to the Yankees on Wednesday, surrendering six runs on nine hits and two walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out two.

EDGE Analysis

Jazz Chisholm had the right-hander's number in this one, launching a solo shot off Evans in the third inning before connecting on a two-run blast in the fifth that helped chase him from the game. It's only the second time in his first nine MLB starts that Evans has served up multiple long balls, and he'll head into the All-Star break with a 3.75 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 35:15 K:BB through 50.1 innings.

Evans is slated to start Wednesday's game against the Yankees in New York, Max Goodman of NJ.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Evans will be making his second straight turn through the Seattle rotation after he was summoned from Triple-A Tacoma last week to replace the struggling Emerson Hancock, who was demoted to the minors. In his first big-league appearance since June 10 this past Thursday, Evans took a no-decision in the Mariners' 3-2 loss to the Royals while striking out three over 5.2 shutout innings. Evans owns a mediocre 17.4 percent strikeout rate over eight starts with Seattle this season, but he's thus far pitched to a 2.96 ERA and 1.25 WHIP over 45.2 innings. Provided he can avoid any major blowups in future starts, the rookie right-hander should hold down a spot in the Seattle rotation until Bryce Miller (elbow) is ready to return from the injured list.

Evans allowed three hits and a walk while striking out three over 5.2 scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Royals on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans threw 56 of 95 pitches for strikes, which isn't a dominant showing, but he was effective at limiting baserunners. This was a positive return to the majors after he had allowed nine runs over 19 innings across his previous three starts over two stints with the big club. He's pitched to a 2.96 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 33:13 K:BB across 45.2 innings over eight starts this season. Evans will likely be in the majors at least through the All-Star break while Bryce Miller (elbow) remains out and Emerson Hancock is in the minors following his recent slump. Evans will be tested in his next start, which is projected to be on the road versus the Yankees.

The Mariners recalled Evans from Triple-A Tacoma ahead of his start against the Royals on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The 24-year-old righty will be taking the place of Emerson Hancock in Seattle's rotation, as the latter was optioned to Triple-A on Wednesday. Evans gave up eight runs in only three innings during his last start at Tacoma, but he'll have a good chance to bounce back Thursday against a Kansas City offense that is tied for 27th in MLB with a .662 OPS on the season.

The Mariners will recall Evans from Triple-A Tacoma to start Thursday's game against the Royals, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Bryce Miller (elbow) likely out until late July, Evans will come up from the minors to claim the fifth spot in Seattle's rotation. The 24-year-old has already made seven starts for the M's this season, turning in a 3.38 ERA and 1.33 WHIP alongside a 30:12 K:BB over 40 innings, but he gave up eight runs in only three frames during his most recent outing at Tacoma. That being said, he figures to have a favorable matchup during his return to MLB, as he'll face a Royals offense that has posted a .617 OPS over the past two weeks.

The Mariners optioned Evans to Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans owns a 3.38 ERA and 1.33 WHIP over 40 innings across seven starts on the year, but with Logan Gilbert (elbow) nearing a return, the former will be pushed out of the MLB rotation. Zach Pop will join the Mariners' pitching staff in a corresponding move to provide extra bullpen depth.

Evans (3-2) allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings to take the loss versus the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans is likely only getting a spot start, as he didn't do anything particularly impressive while filling in for Bryce Miller (elbow) in this outing. Evans got through the order with little trouble the first time, but Arizona got to him in the third, fourth and fifth innings, and it was too much for Seattle to come back from. Evans has done fine when called upon this season, posting a 3.38 ERA despite a 1.33 WHIP and 30:12 K:BB across 40 innings through seven starts. He'll likely head back to Triple-A Tacoma when Logan Gilbert (elbow) is activated from the injured list.

The Mariners recalled Evans from Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans is taking the rotation spot vacated by Bryce Miller (elbow), who was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday. The right-handed Evans has managed a 2.83 ERA in six starts with the big club this season, although he has struck out only 25 across 35 innings. Evans could be in store for just one start during his upcoming stint in the big leagues, as Logan Gilbert (elbow) is expected to return from the injured list early next week.

Mariners manager Dan Wilson confirmed that Evans will be called up from Triple-A Tacoma to start Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks in Arizona, Tim Booth of The Seattle Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Evans made the trip with the Mariners to Arizona due to what Wilson initially termed as a precautionary reason, but the rookie right-hander will end up being needed in the rotation as a replacement for Bryce Miller, who will go back on the injured list due to elbow inflammation, which previously shelved him in May. Though Miller could be in line for a lengthier stay on the IL this time around, Evans could be headed back to Tacoma after his start Tuesday. The Mariners are expected to get Logan Gilbert (elbow) back from the IL early next week, and Evans might find himself as the odd man out of the rotation if Seattle elects to keep Emerson Hancock in place as its fifth starter. Over his six starts with the Mariners earlier this season, Evans went 3-1 with a 2.83 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 25:10 K:BB in 35 innings.

The Mariners optioned Evans to Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans turned in a 2.83 ERA and 1.26 WHIP across 35 innings during his first six starts in a big-league uniform, though his 4.72 FIP indicates his performance hasn't been quite as impressive as his surface stats may suggest. He'll now head back to Triple-A to make room on the active roster for Jackson Kowar (elbow), who returned from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.
