  1. Maybe they think a lack of defensive position is the new market inefficiency to exploit?
  2. If it happens with a full complement of players, then I might start to worry. I don't like that it seems to be a trend, but it is only spring still.
  3. Is that why they can’t afford foot long buns?
  4. Soft implies weakness, or a lack of toughness. It’s such a masculine tough guy word used in this context, one that should really be excised from usage. No one really knows how hard Moncada works, or his pain tolerance. Some athletes can play through pain better than others. Baseball is a grind, and to play everyday, banged up, sore, and to do it again and again is anything but soft. Moncada is definitely dramatic when dealing with pain and injury. But that doesn’t make him “soft”.
  5. Beckham never has a single season outside his rookie year that compared to Moncada’s 2019, if memory serves. He cratered pretty hard and was just a mess, where as Moncada has still had good stretches. I really don’t think there is a comparison between the two. As for why Beckham still has supporters even today and people seemed to have mostly turned on Moncada, it’s anyone’s guess. The music video, the rumors of excessive partying, etc make him a target for ire from certain corners of the fandom. None of that s%*# matters to me, but it obviously impacts others view of him.
