Seager went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Seager's 429-foot shot in the sixth brought the Mariners within a run and served as his second round tripper in as many games. The veteran third baseman has compiled five RBI during that stretch as well and has driven in 11 runs over the last nine games overall.

Seager went 2-for-5 with four RBI from a run-scoring double and three-run home run in Tuesday's 12-3 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Seager's 349-foot shot to right in the fourth put an early cap on what was a spectacular scoring barrage by the Mariners and served as his first RBI since he also compiled four versus the Rockies on May 30. The veteran third baseman has hit safely in 13 of his last 16 games, posting six doubles, a pair of round trippers, 10 RBI, .356 wOBA and 44.2 percent hard contact rate over that stretch.

Seager went 1-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts during Sunday's 7-1 victory over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Before going hitless in nine at-bats over his two previous games, Seager accumulated six RBI over his previous four games. It will be interesting to see if those hitless nights were anomalies, while it looked like he was headed toward a hot streak. His .254/.329/.388 slash line could use a few solid weeks to trend his numbers toward a more elite level.

Seager went 3-for-5 with a double, a homer, four RBI and three runs in Colorado on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The homer was his first in two weeks, as Seager has struggled to get it going throughout the season. He's sitting on his worst stat line in years -- particularly the mere five homers in 50 games, his worst pace since his rookie campaign. However, he's got a couple more games coming up at Coors that can go a long way toward correcting his stat line and building confidence for the 100-plus games remaining in the season.

Seager went 2-for-3 in Tuesday's 10-1 loss to the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Seager's first multi-hit game since May 9 was one of the few offensive highlights for the Mariners, which got their road trip off to a forgettable start. The veteran third baseman has shown much better pop than he did in the season's opening month, as he's boasting a 44.8 percent hard contact rate in May (as compared to 24.6 percent in April). He's also hit safely in seven of his last nine games, as well as in 15 of 20 contests during the month overall.

Seager went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 6-5 win over the A's.
EDGE Analysis
Seager has begun to heat up a little bit in May and has raised his season slash line to .254/.342/.377 after a very disappointing opening month. After hitting a career-high 30 dingers in 2016, his owners are likely scratching their heads with his power production (three long balls in 152 plate appearances). The opportunity to buy low remains open for savvy owners. Seager should pick up the pace, and his current career-high 11.8 percent walk rate is a good sign.

Seager went 2-for-5 with an RBI single, a walk and a run in Tuesday's 10-9 win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran third baseman is finally starting to see some hits fall in on a consistent basis, with Tuesday's two-hit night his third consecutive and fourth in the last five games. Seager now has a six-game hitting streak and reached safely in nine consecutive contests, boasting a .373 wOBA and 41.7 percent hard contact rate over the latter span.

Seager went 2-for-3 with a game-winning solo home run and two runs scored in Sunday's 4-3 victory over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Seager's second dinger of the season ended up being the game-winner in the bottom of the eighth inning off struggling Rangers reliever Sam Dyson. The effort raised his season slash line to .267/.361/.396, and although he's off to a slow start, he is in the midst of a modest five-game hitting streak. The window to buy low on Seager is still open, but it may not remain that way for much longer.

Seager went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk during Saturday's loss to Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
It's been an uncharacteristically slow start for Seager. The third baseman sports a .254/.360/.394 slash line but has still drove in 14 runs. His track record suggests better results are ahead, and Seager's position in the heart of a sneaky good lineup has buoyed his fantasy results despite an underwhelming start.

Seager is back in the Mariners' lineup Thursday, batting fifth and playing third base, Bob Dutton of The News Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Seager was available as a pinch hitter the past two days after being scratched Sunday with a sore hip. His fantasy owners should gladly throw him back into their lineups if they can, though Detroit's Justin Verlander presents a tough challenge.
