Agree with all of this. But the "if" question arose earlier in this thread when the question was posed - "what happens to Julio in CF is we signed Nimmo?" There were 2 camps, basically - keep Julio in CF (resulting in posts about whether Nimmo would even sign if that were the case), or move Julio to RF (resulting in posts about whether Julio would move or be be a stick in the mud like JP and his love affair with the turf between second and third base).Sexymarinersfan wrote: ↑Fri Nov 11, 2022 10:43 pmCongrats to Julio on recognizing we had a major need in CF and putting in the work to go out and transition his body to the rigors of CF. That hole can easily be replaced. Nimmo would bring better CF defense just because that's the type of body and "Natural" athlete that he is. The FO doesn't need Julio in CF to be the face of the franchise. That is so laughable. Ok Ichiro! The point is moot until the M's go out and sign a CF or Nimmo regardless. Until then Julio IS our CF. So it makes no sense arguing about it, until the time actually comes. "IF" a signing does happen, well then that's an argument for another day.
So yeah - until he is signed this is all metaphysical navel gazing. But ain't that thepoint of this whole forum?
