Seattle Mariners place four relievers on COVID-19 list after positive test

SAN DIEGO -- Four Seattle relievers were placed on the COVID-19 injured list Friday after the Mariners reported a positive test within the team.

The Mariners did not identify who tested positive.

Those placed on the IL were right-handers Robert Dugger, Will Vest and Drew Steckenrider, and left-hander Anthony Misiewicz.

"The No. 1 priority obviously is the health and safety of our players and everybody understanding the importance of getting vaccinated," manager Scott Servais said before the opener of a three-game series with the San Diego Padres.
