Mike Carp has a great approach at the plate, but his biggest knock coming up through the minor leagues was that he didn’t have the power you look for out of a first baseman. Indeed, this season with Tacoma he’s only produced a .446 SLG. Carp has a very nice swing but it isn’t considered conducive [...]

You’ve probably noticed that Bill Hall has been essentially an everyday player since he arrived in Seattle, and that after Adrian Beltre returned and Mike Carp joined the club when rosters expanded, Wakamatsu has found playing time for Hall by sticking him primarily in left field. Because of that decision, Michael Saunders has essentially [...] -- This post came from: U.S.S. Mariner , and is...
