INF/OF Miles Mastrobuoni designated for assignment

SEATTLE – Seattle Mariners Executive Vice President & General Manager of Baseball Operations Justin Hollander announced today the following roster moves:

• Weston Wilson (#31), INF/OF, selected from Triple-A Tacoma.
• Miles Mastrobuoni, INF/OF, designated for assignment.

The Mariners 40-man roster remains full at 40 players.

Wilson, 31, was signed by the Mariners to a minor league contract on June 14 and has played in two games with the Triple-A Tacoma Rainiers. The right-handed hitting infielder and outfielder appeared in 19 games with the Baltimore Orioles this season, batting .231 (9×39) with a .348 on-base percentage in 46 plate appearances.

Wilson has appeared in 4 Major League seasons with the Philadelphia Phillies (2023-25) and Orioles (2026), batting .240 (61×254) with 39 runs, 12 doubles, 1 triple, 10 homers, 32 RBI, 10 stolen bases and 32 walks, with a .331 on-base percentage, .413 slugging percentage and .744 OPS. In the big leagues he has appeared at left field, first base, second base, third base, center field and right field, even making 6 pitching appearances.

The 31-year-old North Carolina native was originally selected by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 17^th round of the 2016 MLB First-Year Player Draft out of Clemson University (SC). He homered in his first career plate appearance on Aug. 9, 2023, becoming the sixth player in Phillies history to do that and the first in 25 years.

Mastrobuoni (mass-troh-BOH-nee), 30, has appeared in 84 games with the Mariners since last season: 76 games last season and 8 games this year, batting .246 (43×175) with 23 runs, 4 doubles, 1 home run, 13 RBI and 6 stolen bases with a .602 OPS.

Mastrobuoni began the season on the 10-day Injured List, and later 60-day IL, with a right calf strain. He was acquired by the Mariners from the Chicago Cubs in exchange for cash considerations on Jan. 14, 2025. He has appeared in 5 Major League seasons with the Tampa Bay Rays (2022), Cubs (2023-24) and Mariners (2025-26), batting .230 (97×422) with 57 runs, 12 doubles, 2 homers, 22 RBI, 22 stolen bases and 40 walks.

INF/OF Michael Helman transferred to 60-day Injured List

Arlington, Texas — The Texas Rangers today announced the following transactions prior to tonight’s series opener against the San Diego Padres at Globe Life Field.

• Outfielder Jarred Kelenic (#25) contract selected from Triple-A Round Rock
• Infielder Josh Smith optioned to Triple-A Round Rock
• Infielder/outfielder Michael Helman transferred to 60-day Injured List

The 26-year-old Kelenic (pronounced ‘KELL-nick’) slashed .340/.431/.620/1.051 (17-50) with 3 home runs, one triple, 3 doubles, 11 RBI, and 8 walks in 13 games with Triple-A Round Rock since signing a minor league contract with Texas on June 2. The left-handed-hitting outfielder reached safely in 11 of 12 games with a plate appearance for the Express and produced an RBI in 10 of 12 contests, while making defensive appearances in centerfield (10 games/starts) and leftfield (one game/start). Kelenic is making his second appearance on an active Major League roster this year, as he batted .226 (12-53) with one home run and 4 RBI in 19 games with Chicago-AL from April 29 to May 24. He was a non-roster invitee to White Sox Major League Spring Training camp in 2026, posting a .632 OPS in 14 Cactus League games before beginning the season at Triple-A Charlotte.

Originally selected in the first round (6th overall) of the 2018 MLB Draft by New York-NL out of Waukesha West (Wis.) High School, Kelenic made his Major League debut with Seattle on May 13, 2021 vs. Cleveland. He has seen big-league action in each of the last six years, batting .211/.283/.374/.656 with 50 home runs, 6 triples, 65 doubles, 160 RBI, and 31 stolen bases in 426 games for the Mariners (2021-23), Braves (2024-25), and White Sox (2026). Kelenic recorded career highs in games played (131), hits (95), and home runs (15) in 2024 with Atlanta and has seen action at all three outfield spots in the Majors, primarily in leftfield (172 games) and centerfield (159 games).

Smith, 28, has batted .218 (22-101) with 3 doubles and 6 RBI across 34 games for Texas this season, including 2-for-9 (.222) in three games since he was activated from the 10-day Injured List on Monday. All 28 of his defensive starts have come at second base, while also appearing at third base (one game) and designated hitter (2 games). The infielder has converted 96 of his 98 total chances for a .980 fielding percentage.

Helman, 30, was placed on the 10-day Injured List on Sunday with a right finger fracture after he was struck by a 99.5-fastball from Boston’s Tyron Guerrero on Saturday at Fenway Park. The utility player has appeared in 15 games for Texas this year, batting .167 (5-30) with one home run and 2 RBI.

With today’s transactions, the Rangers remain at the 40-man limit on the club’s Major League roster, along with five players on the 60-day Injured List (RHP Carter Baumler, LHP’s Cody Bradford, Robert Garcia, and Jordan Montgomery, and INF/OF Michael Helman).
