Seattle Mariners: A History of Recent First Baseman in Seattle
The Mariners in recent years have had trouble keeping the same first baseman beyond a couple of seasons. This year could be different if Ryon Healy starts at first base for the Mariners. The position could be in a good spot in the future either with Ryon Healy continues to improve or Evan White turns into more than a prospect.
Evan White already looks to be a good defensive first baseman however can he hit in the major leagues? I am sure we will find out in the next couple of years. If White does turn out to be the real thing the Mariners will move Ryon Healy to designated hitter on a regular basis with an occasional start at first unless Dipoto decides to trade him.
