It's easy to be less impressed with a Dustin Ackley callup than with a Carlos Beltran trade, but...

Kyle Seager hit a three-run HR last night night. I believe that he has hit in all 12 games with Tacoma -- 25-for-55, giving him a .500 OBP (!) with a near-.700 SLG and an 0.83 EYE.
Like we say, another week or two of this and you start to wonder whether he's not another offensive upgrade.
The Mariners tend to use scouts' eyes to gauge readiness for the AL -- ability to hit LH-on-LH curve balls and plus velo, etc -- and I'll bet they're seeing everything they need to see, in Seager.

I wonder which of the infielders would play LF.
