Colt Emerson News: Set for Triple-A debut

The Mariners promoted Emerson from Double-A Arkansas to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Divish notes that Tacoma needed help in the infield, so Emerson is in line for his first taste of Triple-A. He's been scorching hot for Double-A Arkansas of late, as he was riding a nine-game hitting streak prior to his promotion. Emerson will finish his time at Arkansas with a .282/.360/.430 slash line with three home runs and seven stolen bases in 161 plate appearances.
