Seattle’s infielders were locked in from day one this year, and looked like what could easily be the strongest position group on the team. Kyle Seager returned to build on his resurgent 2019 season.

Evan White hoped to make a good impression in his debut following an unprecedented contract extension in leaping straight from AA.
