Haggerty (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals, Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports.
EDGE Analysis
A left shoulder injury will keep Haggerty on the bench for a fourth straight game, but because he was used as a pinch runner in Sunday's 5-3 loss to Oakland, the Mariners seemingly aren't expecting him to require a stint on the injured list. While Haggerty is sitting Wednesday, Mitch Haniger will man right field, opening up the designated-hitter spot for Carlos Santana.

Haggerty (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Washington.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old was scratched from Sunday's lineup due to a lingering left shoulder injury, and he'll remain on the bench Tuesday despite Seattle's scheduled day off Monday. Haggerty still came off the bench Sunday and contributed a pair of stolen bases as a pinch runner, and he figures to be available Tuesday in a similar capacity.

Haggerty (shoulder) came off the bench and contributed a pair of stolen bases in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Though he was scratched from the lineup in advance of the series finale with a sore left shoulder, Haggerty was still available off the bench in a pinch-running capacity. He ended up delivering value in that capacity for fantasy managers in weekly leagues who had Haggerty in lineups, as the 28-year-old turned in his third and fourth stolen bases of the week. Assuming the shoulder isn't bothering him too much when he takes batting practice following Monday's off day, Haggerty could be back in the lineup for Tuesday's series opener with the Nationals.

Haggerty was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics with a lingering left shoulder injury, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Scott Servais said Haggerty recently aggravated the injury on a slide. According to Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times, the shoulder bothers Haggerty only when he swings a bat, so he's expected to be available off the bench Sunday as a pinch-hitting option or as a late-inning defensive replacement. Adam Frazier, who had been scheduled to get the day off, will enter the starting nine in Haggerty's stead.

Haggerty went 0-for-4 with a hit-by-pitch, a stolen base and a run in a win over the Angels on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Even on the rare occasions these days when he doesn't hit safely, Haggerty still seems to find a way to contribute. Working out of the No. 9 spot Wednesday, the veteran outfielder was plunked in the third inning, stole second base and eventually came around to score on Mitch Haniger's single. Haggerty has been complementing a red-hot bat with some solid stolen-base production of late, as he's now swiped three bags in the last four games.

Haggerty will start in left field and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
The recent returns of Julio Rodriguez, Mitch Haniger and Dylan Moore from the injured list were expected to cost Haggerty playing time, but the 28-year-old has performed too well for the Mariners to remove him from an everyday role. Haggerty, who will be making his fifth consecutive start in the corner outfield Wednesday, is slashing a sublime .339/.377/.554 with two home runs, three stolen bases, 10 RBI and nine runs in 22 games since the All-Star break.

Haggerty went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run in a win over the Angels on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Haggerty's stolen base was part of a wild ninth-inning rally for the Mariners that the hot-hitting veteran ignited with a one-out single. Haggerty subsequently advanced on a wild throw to second by catcher Max Stassi and then swiped third base before escaping a rundown attempt to score Seattle's first run. The 28-year-old has been a constant thorn in the side of opposing pitching all season and boasts a .385/.433/.577 slash line across the 30 plate appearances covering his last eight games.

Haggerty went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a win over the Yankees on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Haggerty's blistering bat continued to produce Wednesday, as he opened the scoring with a 395-foot shot to left field in the sixth inning. The 28-year-old's play partly influenced the decision to send Kyle Lewis to Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday, as Haggerty has significantly outperformed his teammate at the plate and is capable of playing all three outfield positions.

Haggerty went 2-for-3 with two walks in an extra-innings win over the Yankees on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The hot-hitting outfielder was the only constant offensive presence for the Mariners in a game that was scoreless until the 13th inning. Haggerty's multi-hit effort was his third in the last four games and pushed his season line to an elite .323/.370/.516 across 100 plate appearances.
