The Seattle Mariners are reportedly calling up one of the top prospects in their loaded farm system on Sunday.

With first baseman Ty France dealing with a right heel issue after being a hit by a pitch Friday, Tyler Locklear is set to join the big league club for the series finale with Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium, according to Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times.
Locklear wasn’t in the lineup for the Triple-A Tacoma Rainiers’ game Saturday night.
Locklear was a second-round pick out of Virginia Commonwealth in the 2022 draft and one of seven Mariners prospects in Baseball America’s top 100 prospects. Baseball America ranks Locklear as the No. 94 prospect in baseball. He’s the No. 8 prospect in Seattle’s organization, according to MLB Pipeline.
The 23-year-old first baseman was promoted to the Triple-A Tacoma Rainiers less than two weeks ago after tearing up the Double-A Texas League. In 41 games with Double-A Arkansas, Locklear slashed .291/.401/.532 with 12 doubles, one triple, eight home runs, 26 RBIs, 23 walks and 49 strikeouts. In 10 games with the Rainiers, he hit .300/.417/.475 with two doubles, one triple, one home run, seven RBIs, six walks and 11 strikeouts.
France was a late scratch from the lineup in Saturday’s 8-4 loss to the Royals. Mariners manager Scott Servais the team will learn more France’s status Sunday.
“I’m concerned about it,” Servais said. “We’ll know more tomorrow if he’s going be on the IL or where it goes from there.”

SEATTLE — Homestead Community Land Trust celebrated the completion of Nest, a new mixed-income condominium community on Seattle’s Phinney Ridge, during a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Friday.
The development creates 30 homeownership opportunities in one of Seattle’s most sought-after neighborhoods, including 19 permanently affordable homes and 11 market-rate homes.

Located at 6109 Phinney Ave. N., Nest is Homestead’s second condominium development on Phinney Ridge and the latest addition to its portfolio of permanently affordable homeownership communities.
Residents will have walkable access to neighborhood businesses, transit, and parks, as well as views of the Cascade and Olympic mountain ranges.
Homes designated for income-qualified households are expected to be priced between approximately $250,000 and $335,000, compared with Seattle’s median condominium price of about $600,000.
Speakers at the ribbon-cutting ceremony included Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson, state Sen. Emily Alvarado, Nicole Vallestero-Soper, director of policy and innovation for Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson, and Homestead homeowner Jessica Garcia-Ortiz.
The project was developed on a site assembled from a former Seattle City Light property made available through the City of Seattle for affordable homeownership and an adjacent parcel acquired by Homestead.
The development highlights how public land, public investment, and community partnerships can be used to create long-term homeownership opportunities in high-cost neighborhoods.
Nest includes one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes, rooftop community space, and all-electric, fossil-fuel-free construction.
The homes feature heat pumps, induction ranges, and modern building systems designed to reduce environmental impact and operating costs.
The development also incorporates environmentally sustainable materials and bio-based, PVC-free flooring that is cradle-to-grave certified carbon neutral.
The development was made possible in part through the transfer of a former Seattle City Light property for permanently affordable homeownership, advancing the use of public land to support housing affordability in Seattle.
