Gordon Beckham Making Case To Make Mariners Roster
Gordon Beckham is doing all he can to make the Opening Day roster and is currently hitting everything in sight. Through 19 preseason at-bats, Beckham has 10 hits with four extra-base hits and is slashing .526/.625/.842. The once highly-touted prospect is looking to make the team on the merits of his defense and infield flexibility. He always has been a streaky hitter and has a career batting average of only .239. He will have to keep this up if he wants to supplant Taylor Motter as a main bench piece for Seattle this season. If he makes the team, he will not be a threat to take at-bats away from All-Star Robinson Cano or Jean Segura.
