You need guys who can play the infield, which is probably why Lenin Sosa is still on this roster, despite the fact he took a walk yesterday, guys, for the first time.
113 plate appearances, I think, this season.
Lenin Sosa finally took a walk, but it's been ugly.
And if David Schneider was playing like he did last year with a 797 OPS, a guy who fit this team perfectly, then that would be so much better.
If Kirk were back, if Barger were back.
I think that when Kirk is back right now, it's Brandon Valenzuela's job.
I think he fully and completely deserves that.
And I think he's a big leaguer for the next five years with Alejandro Kirk.
That's one hell of a catching tandem.
That's a really good tandem in Major League Baseball.
But then you get into the decisions about does Joendrik Pignango, does he stick around?
Last night did not help.
Wandering around in left field did not help whatsoever.
So you start to get into conversations where the best man wins.
That's what this was supposed to be all along.
But when you have so many injuries, things like having options or your position come into it.
All of these factors that are not just who's the best ball player.
The Blue Jays have not had that option enough, but I think that's coming.
And that can kind of get to what O-Dog mentioned earlier, that point where it starts to turn.
The Jays just haven't been able to capture that identity yet because this is not who they thought would be here.
