Seattle Mariners: Stock Up, Stock Down 5/30-6/5
Stock Down
Hitters
Adam Frazier – Is currently in a bad slump. Making myself look silly for trading for him on my fantasy team a couple of weeks ago. Regardless, this week he went 2/22, scoring 2 runs, 1 double, 1 RBI, 1 walk, and 2 strikeouts for a .091 average. He’ll get it turned around so no need to worry. Unfortunately, that sentiment doesn’t help right now as the Seattle Mariners are working hard to get their record over the .500 mark.
Middle Infielders – J.P. Crawford and Abraham Toro both of these players have only been back from injuries for a little bit. So, it’s a bit unfair to be putting them here in the stock down section as they may still be dealing with their respective injuries to a degree. However, that didn’t stop them from having bad weeks.
Crawford, went 4/24, scoring 4 runs, 1 double, home run, an RBI, 2 walks, and 5 strikeouts for a .167 average. Toro says hold my beer, as he goes 2/19, scoring 2 runs, 1 triple, RBI, and walk, and 3 strikeouts for a .105 average. If Toro wants to make a case for my playing time it would behoove him to take advantage of Frazier’s current slump.
Bottom line, two of these three guys need to pick up their offense to help out Ty France, and the aforementioned Rodriguez and Suarez. Right now those three guys are doing the heavy lifting for the Seattle Mariners offense.
