He is NOT decent at 3b. They moved him off the position because he's a statue with bad footwork.
Chavis just sells out for power. He has it in droves, but many people have questioned what his numbers would look like once the book got out on him. I wasn't alone on an island in this aspect. It was even mentioned by Eck and Remy on various broadcasts.
@SoxNotes
Rafael Devers had 3 RBI in his first 24 games (through Apr. 23). In 36 games since then, his 35 RBI rank T-1st in the AL.
Devers leads the AL with 52 hits since Apr. 25. In 35 games in that time, he has hit .344 with 9 HR, 33 RBI, and a .995 OPS.
Some players do pay attention to the media (Pedroia, Price, JBJ) as we have discussed before. Even Foulke had to rant about Johnny from Burger King at one point. I think it matters to players more than you are letting on.
You're not allowed to make your own opinions on this site. You need to make arguments about other people's opinions and then go on tangents for two pages. That's how this system works. You must be new here?
I'd never say that "no pressure" exists in any other market. I'm sure there is pressure even in a dump like Tampa (Tampa is nice, the park is a dump). I just think players are under a bigger microscope here. In Milwaukee, the fans are just happy to be there when they get to the playoffs. In Boston, we're only happy for parades. It's different.
Even without the profanity, I'd be more interested in that post than all these other "JBJ sucks" "nope he's good now" "DFA Weber" "WTF Cora" "DD can't build a pen" posts everyone on here does. I'm always down for new content.
Basing a pitcher's effectiveness solely on wins is dumb.
Basing a fielder's effectiveness soley on errors is dumb. People just REALLY overstated how bad his defense was. He was young and busting his ass at the position. It was so obvious it was going to get better.
