Weeks will start getting work at first base in the near future, but he may not be deployed there in games for a while, the Tacoma News Tribune's Bob Dutton reports.
The Mariners are probably hoping Logan Morrison really takes to being the everyday first baseman this season, but given his injury history, having Weeks start at first against the occasional lefty would make some sense. Depending on your league, this could lead to further position eligibility for Weeks, but first-base eligibility rarely moves the needle much.
