There hasn’t been one season in Kyle Seager’s still young Mariners career where he hasn’t played above-average baseball.
But, as our own Colby Patnode reminded us, there have been quite a few talented men at the hot corner, so what put’s him ahead of the rest?
Well, if we look optimistically into the future, what we’ve seen so far in Seager’s career is just the beginning of something very special.
Offensively, he’s been a reliable doubles and home run hitter.
If he continues to hit his average of 33 doubles and 24 home runs per campaign over the course of the next three seasons, he will end up sitting in 4th on both the Mariners all-time doubles list with 279 only behind Ichiro, Edgar Martinez, and Ken Griffey Jr.
