6 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager (elbow, hip) hit a home run off Cubs starter Cole Hamels in his first Cactus League start on Wednesday night. It was Seager’s first professional game since two surgeries limited him to 26 games in 2018. Batting third, Seager finished the night going 1-for-2 with a sacrifice fly, giving him two RBI on the night. Perhaps more important (even for fantasy purposes) was Seager’s mobility playing the field. He smoothly turned a double play, saying later, "it was really nice to make that and not have to worry about it.” Seager was the Rookie of the Year in 2016 and slashed .303/.370/.496 over his first two full seasons. He’ll likely be a top five producer at his position, but is not generating much excitement because of his injuries. Wise fantasy players will remember his most important number: 25, the age he will turn in April. Don't sleep on his potentially epic comeback.--Mario Hernandez - RotoBaller
