15 Kyle Seager, 3B

Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager ended a 2-for-15 slump Monday at Cleveland with a 2-for-5 performance. He had his sixth home run and 13th double, while scoring two runs and adding one RBI.

Seager is batting .246 (15 for 61) with three doubles, three home runs and nine RBI in 16 May games.

Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager seems to have taken well to his new spot in the order. He went 2 for 4 with his first home run in nine games Wednesday against the Yankees.

Seager is reaping the benefits of hitting in a run-producing part of the lineup, with five RBI in three games out of the third spot since being moved there. He is batting .286 with 18 extra-base hits in 39 games, and hitting third consistently is only going to improve his RBI total, which sits at 21.

Fantasy owners should only expect more big things from Seager with this move. He is worth getting active in all formats. 

Mariners manager Eric Wedge made a change to his lineup Sunday against the Athletics, moving Kyle Seager into the third spot in the batting order. Wedge made the move in order to alleviate some of the pressure felt by Kendrys Morales and Michael Morse, who moved down to fourth and fifth in the lineup, respectively.

"Kyle is a very mature young hitter," Wedge said, per MLB.com. "We’ve seen that. The reality is he’s probably more than [just a two-hole hitter]. And I trust him. There’s not too much we can give him that he can’t handle and he’s already proven that."

Seager entered play Sunday batting .267 (8 for 30) with one double, one home run and three RBI in eight May games. He has a .287/.355/.471/.826 slash line through 36 games.

"I look at him as either a two or three-hole hitter," Wedge said of Seager. "It just takes some time to figure out what everyone ultimately is going to be."
