Scuffling at plate in spring Wong went into Monday's Cactus League matchup against the Angels hitting .185 (5-for-27) with a double, a walk, a stolen base and two runs across 10 spring training games.
Impact The veteran trade acquisition has struck out an acceptable six times over 28 plate appearances, so it's possible he's also been on the wrong side of luck on at least a handful of occasions when putting the ball in play. Wong slugged a career-best 15 homers for the Brewers in 2021 while also posting his highest strikeout rate (17.7 percent) since his rookie 2013 campaign, but he still remains a highly reliable contact hitter with some solid pop that's proven capable of 40-plus extra-base hits on multiple occasions throughout his long career.

Mariners get 2B Kolten Wong from Brewers for Winker, Toro
The Seattle Mariners have acquired second baseman Kolten Wong from the Milwaukee Brewers in a trade for outfielder Jesse Winker and infielder Abraham ToroDECEMBER 2, 2022
Traded to Seattle Wong was traded to the Mariners from the Brewers on Friday in exchange for Jesse Winker and Abraham Toro, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
Impact Wong will almost certainly serve as Seattle's everyday second-baseman in 2023 after Adam Frazier became a free agent this offseason. Wong slashed .251/.339/.430 last season while playing his home games in hitter-friendly American Family Field. Seattle's Safeco Field has a reputation for favoring pitchers, so it's possible his output in 2023 will decline as a result.

Why the Mariners should trade Chris Flexen to the Brewers for Kolten Wong The Brewers lacked rotation depth in 2022. The Mariners lacked production at second base. This trade seems like a perfect fit.
