They don't need him to be Francisco Lindor. yea, resigned to that fact as well. Solid player, not ever going to be a star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not what anyone hoped for, but he's done well enough against lefties in his career that he could be used creatively to get the most out of his power/speed/defense combo but maybe not playing every day. Which ya, means he'll never be an all star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy who plays good defense, hits for power and can steal a ton of bases can be argued as a star, although I catch your drift. I, too, would not think of him as a star but he would be an extremely useful piece on a good team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think part of it is we assumed he'd either be an All-Star or a Courtney Hawkins redux and somehow he's looking like a solid MLB regular, the part of distribution of outcomes nobody was really betting on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's more like the 6th best player on a contending team. Definitely starter material, but his contact has been weird this year. Seems like his hard hit balls have been homers and not a lot of gappers at all. Huge red flags with his inability to walk over the last 125 or so at bats, but he's getting some cheap hits of late to thankfully keep him afloat. Defense has been way better of late.

fathom Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Yoan with two god awful at bats back to back. He's taking far too many strikes early in the count since the ASB. Makes for a very easy out for the pitcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
