Scouting Report

Updated May 20, 2026

Matt Brash, Seattle Mariners relief pitcher, is dealing with right lat inflammation and has begun a rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma. The 28-year-old was one of the better relievers in baseball, posting a 2.47 ERA in 2025 across 53 games and had not allowed a run in 14 appearances in 2026 before landing on the injured list. The Mariners are hopeful for his return soon, with Brash trending in the right direction. The team is also dealing with other injuries including catcher Cal Raleigh's oblique strain.
