wegner Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 It's quite possible this is the final season for the left side of our infield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you and I have very different definitions of what the last three years means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, he never really panned out at third base with the bat, which is more i9mportant. Should have been put at second base and left there long ago to get power in the lineup. It's a mess.

Great fielder who had a career year in juiced ball 2019 . 4 War in 2021 with Career High OBP but barely got above .400 slugging. Cratered last year . Injuries? Maybe . Career lows in just about all offensive categories. Crucial year for him. Has to get to at least 2021 levels and improve the BABIP back up to normal for him. Trouble is we have no idea whats normal with him. Outside of 2019 his Slugging % is around .400 When you talk about Moncada 2019 shouldn't be talked about any more. Major outlier because of the ball. I'm not saying Burger is the answer at 3rd. There's a reason he's playing more now at 1st Base. Hoping Ramos hits a ton this year in his age 21 season . Seems like a good year for him to make a leap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that approach rubs off on Robert and Moncada, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Sunk or swim with Moncada. Hahn's simply scared to look like a jackass again when he turns into a superstar for another team after being traded and remotivated....even at those peak salary numbers.

Hopefully, Vaughn solidifies that spot this season. But I also hope that Sosa has a great first couple of months in Charlotte and can move into 2B and at least split time with Andrus that would elevate the team (including bench) over what appears will be a bench with 3 no-hit defensive replacement types. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
