Haggerty went 0-for-3 with a walk, two stolen bases and a run in a win over the Mets on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Haggerty's pair of sixth-inning pilfers led to a run and would prove to be key, given the final margin of victory. The utility man stole second after drawing a walk and then also took third base to put himself in position to eventually cross the plate on Mark Vientos' throwing error. Haggerty was just recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday as part of roster expansion, and his extensive defensive versatility should afford him semi-regular playing time despite his offensive struggles this season.

The Mariners recalled Haggerty from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
As MLB rosters expand to 28 players Friday, Haggerty will return to Seattle to give the team a bench bat capable of fielding multiple positions. His versatility may buy him a fair share of opportunities off the bench, but with a .613 OPS on the season through 62 plate appearances, it's unlikely he makes much of an impact with the Mariners.

Haggerty was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Haggerty was called up from Tacoma earlier this month and posted a .930 OPS over eight games, but the Mariners needed to remove someone from the roster to open up a spot for the returning J.P. Crawford, and Haggerty was the player sent out.

Haggerty was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
With J.P. Crawford heading to the 7-day injured list, Haggerty will take his roster spot. The 29-year-old will make his first appearance in the majors since being optioned June 6. Prior to that, the utility player had been with the Mariners the whole season, but was hitting below the Mendoza Line. Triple-A has been a different story, where he has slashed .325/.411/.590 with eight home runs in 42 games.

Haggerty was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Haggerty will head to Triple-A for the first time this season after he produced a .190 batting average with two doubles, two RBI, six runs scored and four stolen bases over 42 at-bats in 24 games with Seattle this season. Considering he struggled to find action in the big-league lineup, the 29-year-old could certainly benefit from some extra reps with Tacoma. Haggerty can play every position besides catcher, so he has a strong chance to return to Seattle at some point this summer due to his positional flexibility.

Haggerty went 1-for-3 with a two-run double, a walk and a run in an win over the Athletics on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The valued utility asset slotted into the No. 9 hole in place of Ty France (wrist) and delivered nicely, doubling home the first two runs of the game for Seattle in the fourth inning. Haggerty has scuffled at the plate all season and is carrying a .162 average and .478 OPS across his first 42 plate appearances, but the unusual combination of an especially low .222 BABIP and elevated 25.9 percent line-drive rate imply he's had his fair share of bad luck when putting the ball in play. With France potentially set to miss "a few days" per the team's official site, Haggerty could be in line for at least another spot start or two.

Haggerty stole a base as a pinch runner for Ty France (wrist) in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
France may not be available to play Wednesday, so there could be a chance for Haggerty to nab a rare start at first base. Haggerty has served as a bench option lately -- he hasn't started since May 14. The utility man has four steals and a .147 batting average through 38 plate appearances.

Haggerty entered Wednesday's loss to the Red Sox as a pinch hitter in the sixth inning and remained in the game at second base, going 1-for-1 with a double, a walk and a run.
EDGE Analysis
It was a rare taste of both action and offensive success for Haggerty, who came into the night with only nine plate appearances since May 3. The 28-year-old's two-bagger was his first extra-base hit of the season, and he's still sitting on an abysmal .147/.237/.176 slash line across 38 plate appearances.

Haggerty was reinstated off the 7-day concussion injured list by the Mariners on Saturday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Haggerty returns, as expected, from the injured list for Saturday's game against the Cardinals after missing a week from a hard fall sustained against the Rockies last Saturday. He'll return to a utility role with Seattle with Cooper Hummel heading to Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move.

Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto told reporters before Wednesday's game against the Brewers that he expects Haggerty (concussion) to return to from the injured list Saturday, Jen Mueller of Root Sports Northwest reports.
EDGE Analysis
Haggerty was placed on the 7-day concussion list Monday after diving for a groundball against the Rockies on Friday. Once back the 28-year-old should continue to see regular playing time against left-handed pitching at second base.
