O'Malley (hand) is 3-for-11 in three games since returning from the disabled list for Triple-A Albuquerque.

EDGE Analysis

The utility man was sidelined with a broken hand since spring training, but he was able to return to action with the Isotopes over the weekend after rehabbing at extended spring training to start the season. O'Malley has a unique profile as a switch-hitter who can play both on the infield and the outfield, but his .231 career batting average in the majors suggests he's destined for an organizational depth role.

O'Malley is sidelined with a broken left hand, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

No word has come forth as to when the injury cropped up, but the injury limited him to just 15 at-bats this spring. O'Malley hopes to have the cast removed from his hand later this week, but even with a brace on his hand, it will be tough to take part in many baseball activities for the time being. This all but rules him out from landing an active roster spot out of camp, leaving him to dwell as an organizational depth piece once again this season.

O'Malley agreed to a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Saturday which includes an invitation to spring training, Bob Dutton of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

O'Malley missed the majority of the 2017 season while recovering from an appendectomy and arthroscopic shoulder surgery. He ended up appearing in 33 games across three levels of the minors, but hit just .235/.333/.361 over that span before being cast off the Mariners' 40-man roster in September. He'll look to catch on as a utility man, though it's more likely he winds up as organizational depth.

O'Malley was outrighted to Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

O'Malley was designated for assignment at the beginning of September to open a spot on Seattle's 40-man roster. O'Malley's performance with Tacoma was underwhelming this season, as he hit .205 with a .532 OPS over 20 games.

O'Malley was designated for assignment on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The Mariners needed to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for Gordon Beckham, whose contract was selected as a corresponding move. O'Malley is hitting .205/.250/.282 with one home run in 84 plate appearances with Tacoma.

O'Malley, who remains sidelined with a concussion sustained at Triple-A Tacoma on Aug. 22, is not expected to be called up when major-league rosters expand Friday, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports. "Shawn has gone through a lot this season, between the shoulder issue and there's been a ton of different things that have come upon him this year," manager Scott Servais said. "So I don't know what kind of status he's in game-shape or if he can really help us.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran utility man has had a laundry list of health woes to deal with this season, with the head injury being his latest ailment. O'Malley has yet to be cleared to resume baseball activities with the Rainiers, and it appears likely that his 2017 game action will be limited to the Triple-A level.

O'Malley was removed Monday in the first inning of Triple-A Tacoma's game after sustaining a concussion, Tacoma radio play-by-play announcer Mike Curto reports.

EDGE Analysis

O'Malley apparently suffered the head injury after tripping over the pitcher's mound while pursuing a popup. The utility man has had a rocky season on the health front, as he was sidelined for the beginning of the campaign with appendicitis and also missed significant time while recovering from shoulder surgery. The concussion could keep him out of the mix for a promotion to the Mariners when rosters expand in September.

O'Malley was activated from the 60-day disabled list and optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

O'Malley had been out since early May while recovering from shoulder tendinitis, but performed well in 14 minor-league rehab games, hitting .311 with a .986 OPS over 45 at-bats. However, with no room for a utility bat on the Seattle roster, he'll stay with Tacoma for now, serving as organizational depth in the event of an injury. O'Malley hit just .229/.299/.319 with the Mariners last year and missed the beginning of the 2017 season after undergoing an appendectomy.

O'Malley (shoulder) has gone 6-for-9 with a home run and three RBI over the last two games of his rehab assignment with Double-A Arkansas.

EDGE Analysis

O'Malley had produced only one hit in 19 at-bats in his previous six games with Arkansas, but his standout performances the last two days suggest that he might have knocked off the rust after being sidelined through early July while recovering from an appendectomy, followed by arthroscopic shoulder surgery. The utility man's rehab window will draw to a close soon, so he could be activated from the 60-day disabled list at some point later in August. O'Malley may occupy the bench role that Taylor Motter had previously filled for the Mariners before Motter was ultimately optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on July 24.

O'Malley (shoulder) went 2-for-2 with a triple, three walks and three runs as the designated hitter for Rookie-level Arizona on Saturday, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The utility man couldn't have asked for a better 2017 debut, and is likely in for at least several more games at the Rookie level before taking his rehab up the organizational ranks. O'Malley slashed .229/.299/.319 with two home runs and 17 RBI over 89 games with the Mariners last season in what was his first taste of extended big-league action. If he remains free of setbacks, O'Malley should be cleared for a return to the big-league club at some point next month, although how much playing time he'll see will largely depend on the club's injury situation at the time.
