Physically Seager looks like his old self. Like a 2B.
What would be the point of moving him to 2B? Will he hit better if he becomes a 2B? We don't have anyone capable of playing 3B better (please don't say Healy). Long seems to be the heir apparent at 2B.

I'm not going to play into your baiting. I'll happily agree to disagree.

Seager won't be playing 3B for us when we're contending next, let's put it that way.

Also, have to say that Goldsmith's defense of Blowers cycle with Wilson was pretty entertaining.
Speaking of Blowers, looks like he will finally find out this piece of trivia about him that I have known forever:

Replying to @JonHeyman
In 1995 Mike Blowers had 8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 RBI games. The only other two to do it in one season are Lou Gehrig in 1930 and Jimmie Foxx in 1938. Pretty good company. Does Mike know this @shannondrayer ?

Thanks! I have known it for almost 20 years but have never found a way to ask him! I confirmed that only three had done it by asking STATS LLC. Please let me know. Thanks again.

I guess I can do something else and be confident this will end in a loss. I am usually optimistic but until the M's management dump this manager ( :lol: ), and get their shit together I have better things to do. Cheers.

He won't be playing 2B for the Ms either. In the meantime, someone has to play 3B and Seager is under contract. Healy is a worse defender, and not really much better offensively.

I am surprised to see you people still watching this crap... I looked at the line up today.... with Seager Vogelbach, Encarnacion at the top and Jay Bruce.... has to be one of the slowest teams in history.... I couldn't hang around...

Servais trotting out thinking in his head he wishes he hadn't started benching Beckham for no reason.

And on top of it the Rangers injure Crawford. There needs to be some retaliation here.
