Corey Seager hit three home runs against the Braves as the Dodgers win 4-2. All four runs scored on solo homers. Seager seems to be solidifying his rookie of the year status:
Seager leads the Dodgers with 12 home runs, 31 RBIs, 36 runs scored, 112 total bases, as well as games played and at-bats.
Seager is hitting .283/.338/.511. That’s great production from shortstop. When a team is getting all-star hitting at short for league minimum, they can spend more at other positions to complement the star. Think Derek Jeter and the Yankees in the late 1990s. A strong hitting shortstop gives the Dodgers a good chance to keep their winning ways going.
