In Seattle’s short-term outlook, where managers are apparently instructed to play the guy with the highest paychecks and not the best numbers, Eckstein (signed in the offseason to a one-year, $4.5M deal) would be the starting shortstop. Scutaro, a utilityman making $1.55M this year, would be behind him.
