I noticed that ugly K/W, but I have to thank you because you framed it in such a way that I'm looking at this a little differently now. Like any youngin', how batters adjust to the changes made against them by pitchers is key. Looking at his minor league K/W, it looks like he was able to adjust across the levels.

Can he do it in MLB, however? The K/W comparison to last years ABs slightly tempers the enthusiasm I want to have.

I think he's played well enough to date that his major competition is on the mound. Pitchers will find out what he can't hit and then he'll have to show them they're wrong. The K/W suggests he needs to take more pitches.

Someone help me figure out what's real and not real with this kid. He's being offered to me in a league, somewhat on the cheap, but I don't know what to make of him.

From what I can gather, he's been thought of as a doubles hitter who won't hit for much power or steal many bases. I read an article about him that said Seager worked out a lot over the offseason and strengthened his core, adding a few pounds of muscle in the process. He's apparently trying to turn some of those doubles into HR.

But does he have enough to stick at 3B? His major competition is Liddi, right? And Liddi can launch a few balls last time I checked.

Played third, batted third yesterday. Went three for three and hit a homer.
