Introducing Number Five, Shortstop Corey Seager of the Los Angeles Dodgers. I have been waiting on Seager to make his major league debut since the day the Dodgers drafted him. He was such a highly regarded prospect but the Dodgers have had a lot of highly regarded prospects over the years that have turned into suspects. These players never quite lived up to the hype. Some got in a little bit of time in the majors and some did not. The names of Outfielder Billy Ashley and Pitcher Greg Miller come to mind.
Seager went two for four with two runs scored and two Runs Batted In against the San Diego Padres in his debut and followed that up with a two for five performance with an RBI in his second game. This is Seager's audition to be the starting Shortstop next season as Jimmy Rollins, Howie Kendrick, and the newly acquired Chase Utley are all free agents after the season. Seager is off to a good start.
