I don’t think JBJ is any kind of clown show even when he’s not hitting. Arroyo on the other hand is not an OF, and especially a RF in Fenway. Bloom knew he needed another RHB for a backup outfielder, but still did not get one.
Why would you want your top RBI man leading off? Who is going to drive in the runs that Story has even if they were getting the same opportunities with men on base.
Am I the only one on here tonight? No, and he’ll no. At least Dugy, and JBJ, and Franchy have picked it up, and I don’t need all your analytics to tell me that. Eye test.
