Romy is not the Sox best hitter. He looks deceivingly good because he does excel vs LHP, and he was given a disproportionate number of plate appearances against them.
Springer DHd for Toronto due to some injury issues keeping him out of the field. Coupled with the flop that wa Santander, a move to DH was convenient. But the Jays didn’t give Santander $40mill so he could be benched in favor hof career minor leaguer Nate Lukes.
That noodlebat team won 89 games and had a better record after trading their best masher than they did before. I expect a new 1b, be it Alonso, Hoskins, Bell, Yandy Diaz, etc. And if it is anyone other than Alonso, I expect Bregman to return. And I hope the Sox avoid Eugenio Suarez at all costs…
