They are a mess at SS. I happened to catch Harris doing an interview the other day and when asked about Javy he said that they are committed to working with him to get back to the player he once was. Now on one hand, what else could he really say. He is not going to throw him under the bus on live radio. Between the lines though it tells me that they have nobody else (which we all probably know) but more importantly he is a victim of sunk cost fallacy. To further reinforce my point he was asked that even if they spent money last winter in free agency it wouldn’t matter what they made because the best players would still play. Harris responded by saying that they need to be intentional with the money they spend and if they spent money in FA then you are making a commitment to those players. So I’m glad he didn’t spend because it sounds like players they needed to see would have been blocked. It is just tough because the fanbase, maybe all fanbases are tired of never ending rebuilds in sports. This one for the Tigers is getting on in years at this point.
