Kowar, 28, has been with the Mariners for over a year but will be making his team debut whenever he gets into a game. He was acquired from Atlanta in December of 2023 but required Tommy John surgery in March of 2024. He spent all of last year and the first few months of this year on the IL.

The Seattle Mariners activated right-handed reliever Jackson Kowar from the 60-day injured list on Wednesday and optioned starter Logan Evans to Triple-A Tacoma after a standout outing Tuesday night.
