Seattle Mariners Reliever Comments on Recovery From Season-Ending Surgery
SEATTLE — Injuries are a difficult thing to try and navigate for any professional athlete. They’re a part of the game. But that doesn’t make it any easier.
Especially when one of those injuries is a season-ending one.
That’s been the case for Seattle Mariners reliever Matt Brash this season. The third-year pitcher has been out the entire year as he’s recovering from Tommy John surgery he underwent back in the beginning of May. Brash originally suffered elbow inflammation during spring training and hoped to make a comeback before undergoing surgery.
Brash rejoined the team for their current homestead. It’s the second homestead Brash has been with the team this season after spending most of his year rehabbing in Arizona.
The last time Brash was with the team, he wasn’t able to do a whole lot aside from warm-ups. He’s been able to throw in a limited capacity since Seattle returned home on Tuesday within the confines of what he’s allowed to do with his rehab program.
“It’s always nice to be here,” Brash said before Wednesday’s game against the San Diego Padres. “This is where I want to be, obviously. My rehab’s going good. So I’m excited to be back here with the guys. I’m throwing, playing catch this time. Last time it was just kind of going through the motions with my workouts. But it’s nice to feel kind of like a real player again and throw with the guys and all that, so I’m excited.”
Brash’s recovery was a huge change of pace for the 26 year-old hurler. He went from making 78 appearances in 2023 (48% of games) to not playing at all.

“That was probably the hardest part,” Brash said. “I threw a lot of games last year and I love doing that and being in the moment and coming to the field every day. Rehab gets a little repetitive and going through the motions. But, like I said, being here — this is where I want to be. It’s nice being here for the home stand and help the boys make that playoff push and cheer them on.”
Since Brash’s absence from the staff, the Mariners bullpen has undergone some changes. Collin Snider and Andres Munoz are both having career seasons, Gregory Santos is currently out with injury but has been one of the hardest-throwing relievers Seattle has had when he’s healthy. And rookie Troy Taylor has played himself into being a back-end reliever since making his debut Aug. 11 against the New York Mets.
“Obviously I’ve been watching in Arizona,” Brash said. “So it’s been really cool to see all the guys. Me and Munoz have been together for a while now so I’m really happy for him. He’s been awesome. There’s been some new guys this year, obviously, and some guys that maybe haven’t had a full chance yet. And it’s just awesome to see them take full advantage of that and see them showing what they can do. But yeah — bullpen’s been doing their thing. I feel like they’ve been pretty rock solid over the last few years and it’s been cool to see all them doing their thing, for sure.”
Brash might not have taken the field this year, but his impact is something that is still present. Brash has been praised for what he means to the organization by General Manager Justin Hollander, former manager Scott Servais and even more coaches and staff within the team.
It’s not rare for higher-ups to talk up players, but it’s easy to see when talking to all of those people that their praise of Brash isn’t just lip service.
“It means a lot,” Brash said. “Being down in Arizona, I’m away from the team and all that. So it’s really cool when upper management and your coaches and people that have given you a chance and kind of let me grow as a ball player said nice words about me. I’ve always said I’m super grateful to the Mariners for giving me an opportunity. I love this (organization). It means a lot, for sure.”
Brash is estimated for a June 2025 return according to initial reports following his surgery. When he returns, he’ll rejoin a bullpen that features all the aforementioned names plus whoever else Seattle adds. And a healthy bullpen of Brash, Munoz, Santos, Snider and Taylor will be dangerous no matter what offense they go against.

“I can’t wait,” Brash said. “Watching the game is one thing but wanting to be out there is another. I’ve got it marked down on my calendar for next year. But it’s really cool. I feel the depth we have in the bullpen now — and all these young guys too coming out — throwing good stuff. I can’t wait to be a part of it again.”

SEATTLE – Western Washington is staying locked into a cool and unsettled weather pattern as we head into the second half of the week.
Showers will continue to rotate through the region over the next several days as a series of weather disturbances move overhead, keeping skies mostly cloudy and temperatures running below average for mid-May.
Thursday will bring a brief break in the action before the next weak system arrives later in the day. Expect scattered showers to redevelop with plenty of cloud cover sticking around. Temperatures will remain cool, with highs near 60 degrees.
It will be cool on Thursday in Western Washington with increasing clouds and showers. (FOX 13 Seattle)
What’s next:
The weather turns a bit more active Friday as the next system swings into the Pacific Northwest. Western Washington will see widespread showers and even the possibility of a few isolated thunderstorms. While not everyone will hear thunder, a few heavier downpours and small hail can’t be ruled out if any storms manage to develop during the afternoon.
Rain showers will push through Western Washington again on Friday afternoon. (FOX 13 Seattle)
Saturday will be cool with scattered showers and another chance for isolated thunderstorms, especially near the Cascades. Afternoon highs will struggle to make it out of the 50s across many lowland Puget Sound area communities.
Mountain travelers should also be prepared for a dramatic change compared to the recent warm spell. Much colder air will filter into the Cascades this weekend, and while significant snow accumulation looks unlikely, higher elevations could still see snow showers and sharply colder conditions. Anyone planning outdoor recreation in the mountains should be ready for winter-like weather at times.
Snow levels will drop to near pass levels in the Washington Cascades Friday through Sunday. (FOX 13 Seattle)
Looking Ahead:
The pattern finally begins to improve late in the weekend and into early next week. High pressure is expected to rebuild over the northeastern Pacific, bringing a return to drier weather and some sunshine. Temperatures should gradually rebound back into the 60s by Monday and Tuesday, although the ridge may remain weak enough to allow for occasional clouds at times.
Temperatures will be cool the next three days with showers in Seattle, but next week will be drier and warmer. (FOX 13 Seattle)
