Rotowire
Moore went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 9-1 loss to the Blue Jays.
Moore is 4-for-15 with a homer, two stolen bases and three RBI over four games since he returned from a hip strain. The utility player has been one of the Mariners' strongest hitters so far this season, racking up seven homers, 12 RBI, 18 runs scored, seven steals and a .282/.330/.553 slash line through 27 contests. He's already over halfway to matching his career high in homers, which was in 2021 when he slugged 12 long balls in 126 games.

Mariners' Dylan Moore: Records steal in return
Rotowire
Moore went 1-for-4 with one RBI and one stolen base in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Athletics.
Moore missed the minimum 10 days on the injured list due to a mild hip strain. The utility player played the full game in right field, though it's expected he'll move around the lineup going forward. Second base and right field are his best bets for playing time to help cover the absences of Ryan Bliss (biceps) and Luke Raley (oblique). Moore is batting .284 with an .878 OPS, six home runs, 10 RBI, 16 runs scored and six steals over 24 contests this season. That kind of production, as well as multi-position eligibility, makes him a useful player to roster in all fantasy formats.

Mariners' Dylan Moore: Expects minimum IL stay
Rotowire
Moore (hip) said Tuesday that he expects to return from the 10-day injured list when first eligible May 7, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
He first tweaked his hip/adductor last week and was given an MRI over the weekend, which showed that the injury is "not even a Grade 1 strain," per Moore. However, the Mariners decided to exercise caution and put the super-utility player on the IL. It's unclear whether Moore will need a rehab assignment.

Rotowire
The Mariners placed Moore on the 10-day injured list with right hip inflammation.
It's another blow to the Mariners' infield depth after Ryan Bliss suffered a torn biceps earlier in April. It's unclear when Moore suffered the injury, but it doesn't sound like a long-term issue. Moore has been one of Seattle's top hitters this season, slashing .286/.346/.557 with six home runs, nine RBI, 16 runs scored and five stolen bases. Leo Rivas and Miles Mastrobuoni are candidates to see more playing time for the Mariners.

Mariners' Dylan Moore: Appears ticketed for utility role
Rotowire
Moore could end up serving mostly as a utility player this season as opposed to being an everyday starter, Tim Booth of The Seattle Times reports.
The Mariners have holes to fill in the infield following the offseason departures of Josh Rojas and Justin Turner from Seattle. Jorge Polanco is penciled in as the club's primary third baseman, and a strong spring training by Ryan Bliss has put him in contention to start at second base to open the season. Moore is just 3-for-34 this spring and could be on the outside looking in when it comes to an everyday role, but he should see plenty of action while bouncing all around the diamond in 2025. "I think as a utility player, when there is a spot open or there is availability for a spot, somebody goes down, that is also your job," Moore said. "So if there is a spot open, I always think that I am the guy to go fill that need for however long."
