Fairchild has gone 2-for-8 with an RBI, a run and a stolen base in two games for Triple-A Tacoma since re-signing with Seattle on a minor-league contract Saturday.
After being dropped from the Mariners' 40-man roster Tuesday, Fairchild cleared waivers a few days later and elected to become a free agent Friday. He ended up working out a new deal with the Mariners a day later and will continue to provide the organization with outfield depth at the Triple-A level.
