Donovan is going to play 3B so he will easily exceed Ben and Geno. We will see how close Cole can get to 2025 Jorge. That is were the shortfall will be but maybe Cole + Donovan can approximately equal Jorge + Ben + Geno...

Wouldn't it be nice if we could just add a one damn good hitter one of these off seasons???

Yeah, last year Donovan Solano was one of the guys to cross our fingers about.

"Well maybe Donovan Solano and Mitch Garver will..."

Ridiculous.

Brendan Donovan and Rob freakin' Refsnyder are just this year's version of slop.

The reason losing Polanco is a problem imo is he had the 4th highest OPS on the team and everyone else near him in OPS is a strong regression candidate imo.

We didn't add any actual bats to a team that needed them.

Because we had minimal open roster spots, and handed them to big ol' sissies.

That's not me saying, "We should've kept Polanco!"

No. We just didn't replace him with an as-good or better bat. It's a downgrade.

Naylor is definitely a regression candidate. He played out of his mind for us. 26% of his career WAR came in those two months. His career debuted in 2019.
