Dustin Ackley confident, ready for season

Posted Mar 24, 2014
The Dustin Ackley the Mariners have seen this spring is the one they thought they were drafting No. 2 overall in 2009. Ackley is hitting at a high clip, finding the gaps, getting on base and even driving in a few runs. Ackley has a hit in 17 of 19 games, leads the Cactus League in hits, and is ranked in the top 10 in doubles, on-base percentage and total bases. (MLB.com)
