His .233/.325/.405 triple-slash rates as a first baseman in those years are substantially beneath the .267/.348/.452 major league averages, and with Safeco Field working against him, it's an even steeper climb to realize his full potential. Smoak should get another year's worth of everyday at-bats as the Mariners look to see what they have in him, but there's little in his peripherals to hint that a breakout is definitely coming. Speculate if you wish in the end game, but without some glimmer of hope during spring training, he's not worth any significant investment.","seasonId":2012,"date":"Fri Feb 10"},"playerRater30DAY":0.4,"playerRater15DAY":2.9,"positionRank":25}
