Albert Pujols had 101 RBI in 2017. A season where he slashed .241/.286/.386. That is a dogshit season that he got to 100 by having the best player maybe ever in front of him.

Passan: Moncada, Giolito are among players to watch for extensions this winter
The Nats are allegedly offering Soto 180 million dollars in an extension. Not totally sure what that means for Moncada, but I imagine it makes things quite a bit more difficult.

A. They literally have double, maybe even triple, the young talented players. B. Jon Jay and Hector Santiago are apropos of absolutely nothing.

Aaron Judge has a significantly better track record than Moncada. I don't see how they are comparable at all.

Players can get better. They both are obviously greater than utility players now... My point is, those are guys who came into the league playing multiple positions.

Ketel Marte and Max Muncy came up as Utility Players. Bellinger came up playing 1B but was a natural outfielder. These are completely different situations.

Yes, let's take a guy whose biggest issue is inexperience and move him to a position he hasn't played in his life.
