I think nearly all Mariners fans are in agreement that something has to be wrong with Kolten Wong. He hasn't looked the same since the Mariners acquired him in the offseason, and he hasn't been producing at all. I was incredibly excited to get him, as I've been a fan of his for quite a while. I led the wagon in the offseason, making arguments to people that Wong WAS going to be good and that he would be a great hitter to have on the team, possibly at the top in front of Julio. Instead, it's been bad.

He hasn't been producing. Like, at all. It's been bad. It took until April 26th for him to have his first extra-base hit of the season (a double). He has just three multi-hit games on the season so far.

Can Kolten Wong figure it out? Or are we set to watch another veteran second baseman squander away a shot and produce nothing but a black hole of despair at the position? Let's take a look at both sides of the argument and look at 3 reasons why Kolten Wong is going to figure it out... and 3 reasons why he won't.
