What it comes down to is would you rather have WMB or Drew. At this point, Drew is a much better option.
I like that Brock is playing a little 1b. Also nice that Lou Merloni is pushing my idea of Brock in LF. Ride the hot hand. WMB hasn't been a viable option since his multi homer game at Toronto last April.
What would you do with him once everyone is healthy and Drew is in Boston?
I'd have him be a super utility guy and he'd be shagging balls in LF ASAP. His production to this date is good enough that you need to ride his hot bat and hope it sticks. If he's athletic enough to play SS and has a strong enough arm to play 3b, he couldn't possibly be a defensive downgrade from Gomes.
@richardjustice: Worst AL rotations in May: Red Sox (4.82 ERA), Orioles (4.60), Guardians (4.57), White Sox (4.53), Royals (4.53).
But lets keep blaming JBJ and XB.
