Misreads the ball off the bat, has no speed to get to a ball, and has the worst outfield arm in the majors. He is a DH, period. And that’s fine, at least he won’t injury himself in the outfield again. Two times is enough for one season. This is an overreaction. We need his bat in the lineup from left field. He'll get better and do just fine there. Every player on the team can't DH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eloy’s bat will be very good. His defense sucks and costs runs. He gets injured playing LF with his glove on his head. Therefore, why wouldn’t you want him to DH? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There aren't too many left fielders out there who are going to get 40 or so home runs for the next 10 years or so. He has a good work ethic; he will get better and be more than adequate.

Sign Marcel Ozuna for LF and sign a stopgap like Corey Dickerson for RF. And maybe Steele Walker comes up after that. Eloy can still get his 40 homers from the DH spot. And Ozuna in LF will also hit and play much better defense, improving the team overall. Edited August 17, 2019 by Moan4Yoan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
