Corey Seager Returns with a Bang; Lock Him Back Into Lineups
Corey Seager is back in action for the second-place Rangers after a recent stint on the injured list for lower back inflammation. He made an immediate impact upon his activation, swatting a two-run homer in his return to the lineup. Texas immediately plugged their elite shortstop back into his everyday starting role, boosting a lineup fighting closely in the AL West race.
While Seager's early-season .183 average looks alarming, his historical baseline and our projections suggest massive positive regression is coming. Our models expect him to rebound toward a .275 average with 25 home runs over the remainder of the campaign. The underlying power remains intact, meaning fantasy managers should treat his early struggles as a buy-low opportunity.
Texas faces a six-game road trip this week with matchups against the Royals and Red Sox. Seager will face some solid arms like Sonny Gray and Payton Tolle, but his elite pedigree makes him matchup-proof now that he is healthy. Lock him back into your lineups as a must-play weekly option. Verdict: Start.
