Happy... Brandon Maurer Day? That doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

While Maurer looks for his first win of the season, there's good news coming out of the M's Triple-A camp today. According to MLB.com's Greg Johns, Hisashi Iwakuma will take the mound for the Tacoma Rainiers this afternoon. If he performs well, he could be eligible to return to the rotation as soon as Friday, when the Mariners will face off against the Astros in Houston. Keep your fingers crossed.

Game info

  • Mariners vs. Rangers, 1:10 p.m. PST
  • This afternoon's game will be televised on ROOT Sports, broadcast on 710 ESPN, and available to out-of-market viewers on MLB TV here.
  • Game day giveaway: Robinson Cano jersey t-shirts (for kids 14 and under).
