Tim Lopes Make the Mariners When They Resume Action?

When spring training began, Tim Lopes was one of the guys trying to make the ball club but he was someone who had to make a statement to do so. Last season, he hit .270 in his brief time with the Mariners being called up in August.

Before spring training was suspended because of the coronavirus, Tim Lopes was batting .440. That says a lot right there. The Mariners likely will have three backups that can play the infield plus will see action in the outfield too.

Dee Gordon, who started most of the games last year at second base, will see action at second and shortstop primarily but could see action in the outfield as well.
