Mariners recall first baseman Daniel Vogelbach, option Mike Freeman to Class AAA Tacoma

The Mariners made more roster moves on Sunday with the real possibility of more coming in the following days.

As expected, right-hander Chris Heston was recalled from Class AAA Tacoma to make the start on Sunday against the White Sox in the homestand finale. To make room for him, lefty Dillon Overton, who pitched 4 1/3 innings in Saturday’s loss, was optioned back to the Rainiers.

But the Mariners weren’t done. Seattle also recalled first baseman Daniel Vogelbach from Tacoma and optioned utility infielder Mike Freeman back to Tacoma. Vogelbach was inserted into the lineup at first base and batting seventh.
