maxjusttyped Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I'm surprised Cuba wasn't able to get more MLB talent outside of Robert and Moncada. They could have put together an awesome team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert will be fine. As long as he’s swinging with two hands, he will be a positive contributor. As for Yoan…it just seems like he’s so early and pulls off everything. Same crap we saw last year in ST, during the season and so far this ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
