Interesting for the era though, 25% K rate across baseball. At what point does defense stop mattering that much? Not now probably, but we're getting close.
I don’t think Goodwin can play cf anymore. If he were replacing Eaton, I get it, but how’s he gonna find playing time? I guess they’re gonna throw him out there and give it a whirl.
Ugh, in some ways this is worse than Eloy. At least with Eloy the prognosis is 100% recovery, no issues. I think the Sox pitching is good enough to still be a threat, but it's gonna be hard baseball to watch. Jose's gonna run out of pockets for the batting gloves.
The players to watch for me at W-S are Bryce Bush, Lenyn Sosa, and Yolbert Sanchez. Maybe Mieses will be a pleasant surprise? I've always liked Harvin Mendoza, but he seems hit over power and he's 1b only.
Personally, I would never have given anything for Tauchman, but I wouldn’t give up much for a short term fix regardless. Engel can fill in for a month, and you’ll be fine. Check around the league, no one’s hitting.
