As announced by the Seattle Mariners on Saturday, Dylan Moore has been designated for assignment (DFA) to make way for the reinstatement of Víctor Robles. It effectively all but brings to an end Moore's time in the Pacific Northwest after seven seasons.
For many the decision to DFA Moore is long overdue, with the fanbase recently having become extremely frustrated with manager Dan Wilson continuing to play him. He had been on a truly horrific run of form at the plate since May 28 with just three hits, resulting in a .045 batting average, .240 OPS, -26 wRC+ and -0.
