"Seager unseated a struggling Jimmy Rollins as the starting shortstop and assumed full-time duties at the position the following year. The left-handed hitter enjoyed a productive 2016 season as he hit .308/.365/.512 with 40 doubles, five triples, 26 home runs and 72 RBI in 157 games. He earned his first of back-to-back All-Star selections and was the unanimous National League Rookie of the Year."
"Seager's record-setting start with the Dodgers took a turn in 2018 as he was limited to just 26 games after undergoing season-ending Tommy John surgery to repair the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow. He returned at the start of the 2019 season and picked up where left off, leading the NL with 44 doubles and posting an .817 on-base plus slugging in 134 games."

He missed most of 2018 after Tommy John surgery but returned in 2019 to lead the National League with 44 doubles and post an .817 OPS in 134 games.
