Seager (hand) said he expects to rejoin the lineup at some point this weekend during the Mariners' series with the Astros, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Seager is on the bench for Thursday's series finale with the Brewers, marking his second straight absence due to a sore right hand. The 31-year-old indicated that he first sustained the injury during an at-bat in the first game of the series Tuesday, though he doesn't believe the issue is serious. If Seager can take batting practice Friday without any discomfort, he'll likely get the green light to rejoin Seattle's starting nine.

Seager is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers due to a sore right hand, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Seager didn't make his season debut until late May while recovering from surgery on his left hand, so it's at least somewhat reassuring that the injury is to his other hand. At this point, the Mariners are viewing him as day-to-day, but Seager will likely need to demonstrate some improvement over the weekend if he's to avoid a trip to the injured list. Tim Beckham will fill in at third base with Seager on the bench for a second straight day.

Seager went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 10-9 win over the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis

Seager went 1-for-3 with an RBI single and a bases-loaded walk in a win over the Orioles on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Seager came through with his second two-RBI tally in the last five games, albeit in somewhat unorthodox fashion. The veteran third baseman has hit safely in four of the last five games, and he's boosted his average 22 points to .230 over his last 12 contests overall.

Seager went 1-for-4 with a two-run double and a run in a win over the Athletics on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Seager came through in the eighth inning with a timely two-bagger that plated J.P. Crawford and Domingo Santana, erasing a slim 3-2 deficit in the process. The veteran third baseman has shown a penchant for delivering with men on as June has unfolded, as he's driven in eight of his 11 runs on the season over the last nine games.

Seager went 2-for-5 with an RBI double and a run in a loss to the Twins on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Seager's June surge continued in the loss, with Thursday's tally qualifying as his third two-hit effort in the last four games. The veteran third baseman has already smacked four home runs this month as well, and the combination of his 12 hits and nine walks has led to an impressive .368 on-base percentage since the calendar flipped.

Seager went 2-for-4 with an RBI single, a solo home run, a walk and two runs overall in a win over the Angels on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Seager blasted his second round tripper in as many days in the ninth inning off Nick Tropeano, and he now has four homers overall in his last eight games. The veteran clearly seems to be regaining his timing and discipline at the plate after a delayed start to his season, considering he's also drawn eight walks over his last eight games after eliciting only one free pass over his first eight contests.

Seager went 2-for-3 with a home run and two walks in Wednesday's 14-1 victory over the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Seager went back-to-back with Mac Williamson to hit his second home run of the year, this time off reliever Tyler White in the eighth inning. The 31-year-old missed nearly two months earlier this season recovering from a lingering left hand tendon tear from 2018. Seager started off slow in his return but seems to be finding his groove once again. So far, he's is batting .250/.353/.432 with seven runs scored and three RBI through 44 plate appearances.
