April 27, 20196 yr It's time to see what we have here and play Jose full time at 2nd. Let him sub at 3rd or SS when Timmy or YoYo need a break. Jose has more potential that any of our other options.
April 27, 20196 yr Couldn't agree more. We know what Sanchez is. We don't know what we have in the young, natural shortstop who slugged .500 at AAA. He needs ABs.
April 27, 20196 yr Yeah he’s got an intriguing bat, but holy hell is he slow turning a double play. That could hopefully come with reps.
April 27, 20196 yr I was in the "start Rondon" camp until I watched him play D. Now I am in the "how is Danny Mendick's D?" camp...
April 27, 20196 yr Blah. Got a really bad approach. Swings crazy. He does have good pop. At third maybe. But as people stated his d is not all that good in the middle infield.
April 27, 20196 yr Agreed. I would like to see the power numbers he can put up, even if his AVG and OBP is low.
April 27, 20196 yr It depends on if he can catch the ball. If Rondon is as bad of a 2B as Eloy is an OF, then maybe not.

Although we really have no need of Yolmer, he's kept around because we love him so. On his best days, he's a defensive super-sub. Edited April 27, 20196 yr by GradMc

April 29, 20196 yr I'd see what Rondon could do with the stick this year. Could we move him to first?
April 29, 20196 yr Admittedly I haven’t seen a ton of Rondon in the field, but I believe he was a glove first SS when he was coming up in the Padres. I find it hard to believe he could be that bad in the infield.
