Player Notes
April 27, 2008
Yuniesky Betancourt hit his first homer of the season in Sunday's 4-2 loss to Oakland.
April 22, 2008
Yuniesky Betancourt will return to the lineup at shortstop tonight, following two straight days off, according to MLB.com.
April 5, 2008
Yuniesky Betancourt picked up two more hits on Saturday to up his average to .444 in 18 AB for the Mariners. Betancourt continues to swing away from the ninth spot in the order. After two nearly identical seasons at the plate, the hope is that Bentacourt will show some plate discipline and hopefully turn into a .300 hitter. Time will tell.
March 28, 2008
Yuniesky Betancourt went 2-for-2 and collected five RBI against San Francisco on Thursday, with most of his damage coming on a three run homer, his second of spring training. He raised his average to .302 and seems ready to roll heading into opening day.
March 14, 2008
Yuniesky Betancourt continues to show strong bat potential since being moved up in the order. In today's 9-4 win over the Rockies, Betancourt hit third in the order, going 2-for-4 with a run scored (and was caught stealing). Suddenly the SS for the Mariners is starting to become rather attractive, hitting well and proving he deserves a shot in an active batting order.
March 5, 2008
Updating an earlier story, Yuniesky Betancourt went 3-for-4 and scored a run in the Mariners' 6-5 victory over the Angels in Cactus League play, according to the Associated Press.
March 5, 2008
The Mariners are using Yuniesky Betancourt in the No. 2 spot of the lineup on Wednesday. "We want to take a look at it." manager John McLaren informs the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Thus far, Betancourt is 2-for-2 in the game. The 26-year-old shortstop is an AL-only player when working out of the No. 8 or No. 9 spot, but if it works out, this move makes him more intriguing in mixed leagues.
