June 2020 Update!
Below is an updated look at the pitching / batting at June 1, 2020!!!
Paul DeJong is having a great season, but just went on IL for an oblique strain. He will be back soon.
His stats for 2020 so far are: .313/.394/.540/.934 for an OPS+ of 143!!!
In 150 AB he has 10 doubles and 8 homers.
Usually I try to have elite defenders at SS, but he is just below average (50 on the 20/80 scale) on the season with a -1.5 ZR and a 3.52 RF.
I haven't been impressed with Lourdes Gurriel Jr. however. Since he contract will continue to climb, it might be time to move on from him.
We could in theory play Cavan Biggio in RF/LF and slide Willi Castro in at 2B. Or move Max Schrock to RF and Willi Castro in LF.
Just nice to know we have options.
I wonder how Yuli would feel if we trade away his brother ...
Also, we lost AAA starter and former 1st rounder Matt Manning for the season. He will be in camp next spring looking to earn a job in the rotation.
