Mark Trumbo – Hot
The 29-year-old has strung together a very impressive week for the Mariners. Trumbo posted a .360 batting average with 1 double, 1 home run and 5 RBI. He registered a .429 on base percentage and slugged .520 across 25 at bats.
I was very skeptical of the trade for Trumbo, but he has recently become a consistent force in the heart of the Mariners’ lineup. He is hitting .309 with 7 home runs and 17 RBI since August 15. Trumbo has posted a .260 batting average with 12 home runs and 36 RBI as a member of the Seattle Mariners.
