Back with Mariners on minor-league deal, Dustin Ackley is hopeful and realistic
Posted Feb 21, 2019
In a Seattle Mariners camp brimming with the promise of its youthful core, Dustin Ackley can be viewed as a cautionary tale of how such promises are not always fulfilled. That’s the cynical outlook, anyway. On a more humanistic level, Ackley’s presence in Seattle’s camp is a poignant example of the vagaries of baseball and how the tug of the game is not easily relinquished.
