Mariners Announce Julio Rodriguez News After Angels Game
Mariners Announce Julio Rodriguez News After Angels Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Los Angeles Angels defeated the Seattle Mariners on Saturday night. This was the second game of a three-game AL West series. With the loss, Seattle ends the night 3.5 games back of the first-place Houston Astros, and just two games up on the third-place Angels. Advertisement In addition to the MVP-caliber numbers switch-hitting catcher Cal Raleigh has been putting up this season, Seattle has been reliant on the production of All-Star center fielder Julio Rodriguez. The 24-year-old is second on the team in RBIs and runs scored, and has played good defense in center, including a home run robbing catch in the series opener against LA. Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez (44)© Jason Parkhurst-Imagn Images In an unfortunate development on Saturday, Rodriguez was removed from the game after recording hits in each of his first two at-bats. While running from second to third, Rodriguez was struck by a 98.1 MPH ground ball off the bat of Randy Arozarena. Advertisement Not only was this an automatic out, but it forced Rodriguez to exit the game. There was obvious concern among Seattle fans, and the Mariners have since announced an official update via manager Dan Wilson. "Julio Rodríguez had X-rays taken tonight here at Angel Stadium, which came back negative … He is day to day and Dan Wilson is optimistic that he'll avoid the IL, but they won't know more until tomorrow," Daniel Kramer of wrote on X. This encouraging update from the team got even better when Rodriguez told reporters there is a "high chance" he plays in the series finale against Los Angeles (via Kramer). Advertisement Rodriguez owns a .742 OPS this season, which is below his career .793 mark. The 2022 AL Rookie of the Year, Rodriguez burst onto the scene with 28 home runs and 75 RBIs in his first MLB season. He followed that with 32 homers and 103 RBIs the next season, but took a step back in 2024. While his numbers do not mirror what he did in his first two MLB seasons, Rodriguez remains an integral part of this Seattle team that has postseason hopes.

Buy FuboTV Now or Wait Until the Disney Deal Is Done?
FuboTV is being merged with Disney's Hulu streaming service. FuboTV's first-quarter results weren't as strong as they may have seemed. The company's subscriber count was weak. 10 stocks we like better than fuboTV › FuboTV (NYSE: FUBO) made headlines in early 2025 when it agreed to merge with Disney's (NYSE: DIS) Hulu streaming service. This is a very big deal for FuboTV, and the stock has risen dramatically since the agreement was announced. Should interested investors buy now before the deal is done, or does it make more sense to wait and see what happens? FuboTV says it has "a global mission to aggregate the best in TV, including premium sports, news and entertainment content, through a single app." In the U.S. market, the product it sells is "a sports-first cable TV replacement product." Basically, it is competing with the major content providers with an aggregated cable replacement for so-called cord-cutters. That's not exactly a bad plan, but it is still a fairly big project to undertake since companies like Disney, among many others, have created compelling streaming products of their own. And cable providers are increasingly offering their services through the web, as well. Notably, even if a consumer uses FuboTV, they still need a connection to the internet to make it work. Cable and phone providers are still how large numbers of consumers reach the web. Disney is a media titan with massive content franchises. Hulu was an early effort to break into the streaming world, with multiple original partners. At this point, Hulu's partners have stepped back, preferring to start their own streaming services. That includes Disney. Merging FuboTV with Hulu, with Disney ending up retaining a 70% stake in the company, seems more likely to benefit Disney than Hulu or FuboTV. That's because FuboTV could end up being a mere vassal of Disney. In that scenario, Disney could sell content to FuboTV with costs so high that FuboTV barely makes a profit. Another scenario to consider is that Disney simply sells its stake in FuboTV, leaving FuboTV with a larger business, but one that is still at a strategic disadvantage as content makers push their own streaming products. The interesting thing is that FuboTV didn't have a great first quarter in 2025. For example, the company reported GAAP earnings of $0.55 per share in the first quarter. But if you remove one-time items, the company actually lost $0.02 a share. That was an improvement from an adjusted loss of $0.14 a year earlier, but FuboTV is still a money-losing venture. Worse, FuboTV's subscriber base declined year over year in the first quarter. The first-quarter showing suggests it isn't entering into the Hulu pairing on the strongest footing. Meanwhile, it is taking on a large business that it will operate separately from its FuboTV operation. Complexity will dramatically increase for FuboTV, given that Hulu is a larger streaming business. So execution will be very important, noting that it is entirely possible that FuboTV is biting off more than it can chew. That's highlighted by the company's first-quarter subscriber issues. Could Hulu combining with FuboTV be a massive win for everyone involved? Sure, that's one possible outcome, but there are negative outcomes that could transpire as well. Disney's large ownership stake could leave FuboTV beholden to Disney, placing the desires of other shareholders in a distant second place. FuboTV's not-so-great first-quarter subscriber numbers could be a harbinger of trouble to come even as it bulks up its subscriber count with Hulu. And Disney could just be attempting to offload a business that it doesn't want before the business really starts to show signs of weakness. Tiny FuboTV taking on the much larger Hulu service does sound exciting. But for most investors, it probably makes more sense to wait and see how the new FuboTV performs following the transaction before buying. After FuboTV's big stock price jump, it seems like there's a lot of good news already priced in here.
