Kyle Seager

Seattle's Kyle Seager scratched Sunday with sore hip

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager was scratched from the starting lineup Sunday with a sore hip.

What It Means:

Seager has been bothered by a sore hip for a few days now and Sunday will mark his second straight game missed. He said he is available to pinch-hit though, so it sounds like the injury is minor. He should be back in the lineup soon, but without him on Sunday, Mike Freeman gets another start at third base. He will bat eighth against Andrew Triggs.

numberFire's models project Freeman for 0.85 hits over 3.9 plate appearances on Sunday with a 31.0 percent chance of scoring a run and a 35.0 percent chance of a RBI.
