Everything in April is overmagnified, both the good and the bad.
I have come to no conclusions about anybody on this roster.
But, here are some things I Think I know:
- Losing Bieber was a TREMENDOUS blow for the team and the organization. Not only does this make the SP thin and inconsistent, but now he is untradeable.
- Freeman certainly looks like he can play CF.
- Whoever plays SS will be passable, but probably not an All-Star level.
- I'm glad Florial has had some good swings lately. But he won't actually improve his game unless he gets consistent playing time. And that's not likely.
- I think trading Clase would be wise. Closers are not usually consistent over multiple seasons unless they are HOF material.
(Side note: Why was Antonetti at the game in Boston last night? Could a major roster move / trade be upcoming?)
