Fantasy Impact
Seager missed Seattle's last two games because of a stomach virus. The 29-year-old third baseman claims he lost over 10 pounds because of the ailment that started last Sunday. Seager's bat has cooled off somewhat in August (.204/.264/.469 slash line over 49 at-bats), yet he has still been productive, hitting a respectable four home runs with seven RBIs and eight runs scored.
