Mariners' Jose Caballero: Clubs three-run homer
Caballero went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's 11-2 win over the Athletics.
Caballero's two homers this season have come in his last two games. He made it a 5-0 lead for the Mariners with his second-inning blast. Prior to finding his power swing, he'd gone 3-for-17 across his previous eight games. The infielder is slashing .276/.371/.431 with 10 RBI, 11 runs scored and six stolen bases through 70 plate appearances in his first taste of the big leagues. He'll need to keep hitting to fend off Kolten Wong for the starting job at second base.

Mariners' Jose Caballero: Three swipes and a home run Sunday
Caballero went 1-for-1 with a walk, a solo home run and three stolen bases during Sunday's 3-2 loss against Atlanta.
Caballero was hit by a pitch in his first at-bat and proceeded to steal second and third but was stranded to end the inning. He walked in the third and stole another bag, marking his sixth swipe of the year. In his final plate appearance, the rookie hit his first career home run to cut Atlanta's lead to 3-2. Caballero started the year in a platoon with Kolten Wong, but the youngster has outplayed the veteran thus far.

Mariners' Jose Caballero: On base thrice in loss
Caballero went 1-for-2 with an RBI infield single, two walks and a run in a loss to the Red Sox on Wednesday.
Caballero's fourth-inning knock finally put the Mariners on the board after they'd already incurred a 9-0 deficit, and he also came around to score Seattle's second run on a throwing error by Pablo Reyes in the sixth. The rookie has delivered consistently at the plate over his first 20 big-league games following a long minor-league career, with Wednesday's production pushing his average and on-base percentage to .298 and .393, respectively, across 56 plate appearances.

Mariners' Jose Caballero: Returns to bench
Caballero is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Caballero started in the middle infield in each of Seattle's last three games, though two of those starts came while shortstop J.P. Crawford was managing a left knee injury. With Crawford back in action Wednesday, Caballero will head to the bench and is projected to see infrequent starts as a short-side platoon player moving forward.

Mariners' Jose Caballero: Keeps up hot hitting in loss
Caballero went 2-for-3 and recorded a stolen base in a loss to the Rangers on Monday.
The rookie's pair of singles extended his hitting streak to five games, while the stolen base was his third of the season and first since April 25. Caballero has quickly generated a .306 average and .350 on-base percentage over his first 40 big-league plate appearances following six-plus seasons in the minors, and although his current .423 BABIP is unsustainably high, he's played a big part in his good fortune by posting an elite 38.5 percent line-drive rate.

The rookie has logged just 31 plate appearances to date, but he's already flashed with a pair of doubles and stolen bases apiece in addition to Wednesday's encouraging performance.

Mariners' Jose Caballero: Draws first MLB start
Caballero drew his first major-league start in Tuesday's extra-innings loss to the Brewers and went 0-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base.
Caballero was just summoned from Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday and made his big-league debut as a defensive replacement the same day against the Rockies. He slotted into the No. 8 spot in the order while starting at shortstop Tuesday and was able to make some modest contributions during his first plate appearance. Caballero was off to a great start with the Rainiers before the promotion (.333 average, 1.143 OPS in 40 plate appearances), but he's believed to be in for a brief stint with the Mariners while Sam Haggerty (concussion) goes through a 7-day IL stint.
