    No, but as a general rule of thumb I think the 60 AB rule should apply to any player. You overlooked the meat to just criticize the potatoes.

    For all his troubles with the bat so far his glove at 1B has been on point.

    I can't watch the game but the stats seem to indicate it is more of the same.

    Took a look just in time to see Beltran whif with two on. Shocking. This offense is anemic.

    Morton looked amazing the second when he struck out the side but hasn't looked anything like that in any other at bat.

    That escapability is on full display today.

    Also really flattering that the Mariners are putting up this tribute to the Astros offense.

    Okay that was great work by Morton. He should throw that curveball to righties more.

    It seems that nobody in Seattle can remember what year it is, therefore critically important to have the gigantic "2017" print behind second base to remind them.

    Charlie "Houdini" Morton doing work, but my God this offense is absolutely brutal. Something needs to give, because there are too many above average hitters in this lineup not doing jack-****.

    Considering the pitching was the biggest question mark coming into this season, I have to believe the bats will wake up sooner than later.
