Mariners urged to call up Michael Arroyo amid offensive struggles

The Seattle Mariners are considering a call-up for Triple-A player Michael Arroyo as they struggle to stay competitive in the AL West, currently sitting 3 games back of the Wild Card. With J.P. Crawford sidelined for several weeks, the team needs a boost in right-handed hitting. Arroyo, a 21-year-old utilityman, boasts a.300 batting average with 13 home runs this season. Mariners' roster remains underwhelming as they face fierce competition in the league, prompting discussions for a more aggressive approach to bolster their lineup before the season progresses further.
