Former NL MVP Corey Seager has had a successful career. After winning the Rookie of the Year Award, Seager embarked on a career that was so full of success that he was able to cash in by virtue of a massive contract last season.
Seager is a big shortstop. However, one wouldn't necessarily know that he stood at 6'4'' while watching him masterfully handle difficult plays from his position. It was for this reason that the Los Angeles Dodgers gave him a $2.35 million signing bonus out of North Carolina high school.
It proved to be the correct decision for both parties. Corey Seager won the Rookie of the Year Award in 2016 with the Dodgers after hitting 26 home runs and 72 RBIs while batting .308 that season.

Seager set the franchise record for the highest number of home runs in a rookie season as a shortstop. He followed up his success in 2017, hitting 77 RBIs and 33 doubles to win his first Silver Slugger Award.
After hitting two home runs and five RBIs in six games during the 2020 World Series as the Dodgers bested the Tampa Bay Rays, Seager was named the World Series MVP.
In 2022, with his contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers set to expire, Seager was weighing all of his options. He ended up signing a 10-year deal with the Texas Rangers that would see him earn about $32.5 million each year. Despite hitting 33 home runs, the most of his career, he struggled to hit above .245 in his worst hitting season.

As of 2023, it is estimated that Seager's net worth is approximately $50 million, taking into account his assets as well as his handsome $32.5 million salary for every year between now and 2031.
Corey Seager will be the centerpiece of a resurgent Rangers team in 2023
The Texas Rangers are an exciting young team. They will feature a good young corps of Jonah Heim and Nate Lowe next season. Seager represents the epicenter of their offense, and everyone has high expectations from him in the 2023 season.
