Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger left Tuesday's game versus Oakland after being hit in the wrist by a pitch. This piles on to the injuries the Mariners have suffered as Robinson Cano, Dee Gordon and Nelson Cruz are all out due to injury. X-rays have come back negative, so Haniger will likely avoid missing extended time. He is considered day-to-day and likely will miss a few games due to this injury. Haniger has a tremendous season so far, hitting .298 with 11 home runs, 36 RBI and 22 ru[...]

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger has emerged as the go-to slugger on the team with Nelson Cruz dealing with multiple nagging injuries and Robinson Cano suspended until August. Haniger had a fantastic month of April, hitting 10 home runs and driving in 27 runs. His numbers, however, have dipped recently, and he has only one home run over his last 71 at-bats. But there is plenty of reason to remain optimistic about Haniger's fantasy prospects moving forward. He still sports a slugging per[...]

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger went 3-for-5 with a triple and his 10th home run of the season as the Mariners pounded the Indians 10-4. The Mariners finish up their April with a 16-11 record and Haniger's play has been a huge reason why. He has backed up his preseason breakout buzz with a huge first month, slashing .309/.384/.701 with 10 home runs (tied for the league lead) and 27 runs batted in. Both of the power numbers are good enough to be at the very top among league leaders and [...]

Haniger has homered in each of his past three games and is slugging a robust .671 thus far this season. The 27-year old outfielder now is among the league leaders in RBI and home runs and is flashing the potential that had fantasy owners salivating last April.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger has come out swinging to the 2018 season, hitting his first homer of the season in the second inning of the Mariners 6-5 loss to the Indians. Haniger is now 4-for-6 through the first two games of the season and it would be smart to ride this hot streak in daily leagues in the coming days. Haniger's ability to stay on the field, however, will ultimately be a major factor to the young outfielder's fantasy value this season.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger heads into this season with plenty of national pundits picking him for a breakout season. He certainly has the tools but Haniger staying healthy all season is an entirely different matter. The Mariners have been cautious with their usage of Haniger this spring and he hit an un-inspiring .200 through 40 at-bats. Haniger got off to a strong start last season but an oblique injury completely derailed his season. He did come back and finished up strong, hitt[...]

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger (hand) faced live batting practice on Friday and could begin playing in games as early as Saturday. Haniger has been out since the start of camp with a sore right hand but said he's feeling great. Injuries have been the issue so far in his major league career, but he put up an impressive .281 average with 16 home runs and 47 RBI in 96 games for the M's last year and is a great depth option in deep mixed leagues if he's on the field and producing. He has [...]

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger (hand) will hit live batting practice against relief pitcher Nick Vincent on Saturday, and he could be cleared to participate in spring games after that. Injuries have been the problem so far for Haniger in his two seasons in the big leagues, but he's been adequate for fantasy owners when healthy, batting .281 with 16 homers and 47 RBI in 96 games last year. He still has plenty to prove before he's a fixture in mixed league lineups, but he should be read[...]
