MLB Note - Seattle Mariners Altavilla, Dan

Sep 21, 2017 - 9:27 AM RHP Dan Altavilla was still struggling after taking a line drive off his right ankle in Houston on Saturday, depriving the Mariners of a key arm in the bullpen. "He's still got some swelling where he got hit by that line drive," Mariners manager Scott Servais said. "He's pretty proud of himself, sticking his foot out and stopping it and making the play. Then a couple days later, they feel it." For the season, Altavilla is 1-1 with a 4.43 ERA in 40 2/3 innings.
