A look at JP

Today we look at JP Crawford the

Seattle Mariners shortstop. Last

season like most of the position 

players he had a terrible season

hitting. 

I heard some fans give the excuse

that he was injured. The truth he

wasn't hitting before injury.

This season he will first start batting

ninth. It seems it is where he best at.

Last year he hit .202  with a .304

on base percentage. The lowest 

since being a Mariner. 

His best seasons have been every 

other season with the Mariners.

They are 2021 and 2023 so this

could be it. Last year he had his

worst. Not only his average and

on base percentage he had his 

lowest amount of walks. 

JP Crawford has two years left 

on his contract. Depending on

the top prospects the Mariners

have he could be traded before

the 2026 season. Colt Emerson

the Mariners top prospect could

be ready by 2027 if not before 

then. He is considered one of

the top prospects in all of baseball

though he is only 19.

JP will be a free agent in 2027. 

How he does and the Mariners

even more so will answer it. 

The Mariners could move JP

to second base however Cole

Young might have the spot 

this season or 2027. By 2027

the Mariners will have a younger

infield. 

Anyway JP we look forward to 

a bounce back year. 

Next up we will look at Andre

Munoz. Since the pitchers

and catchers have reported

and Thursday is first workouts

we will see who might be the

buzz in camp. Though some

of the position players are in

camp  Monday is their reporting

date.
