Mariners call up Gordon Beckham to help fill void for Robinson Cano (hand)

Seattle Mariners infielder Gordon Beckham was called up from Triple-A Tacoma.

What It Means:

Robinson Cano (hand) is expected to be facing a long-term absence, so Beckham will take over at second base for the Mariners.

The 31-year-old veteran slashed .300/.412/.500 with 4 home runs, 15 RBI, 17 runs scored, and 1 steal in 25 games in Triple-A this season.
