Aaron Decide hadn’t been a free agent for…nicely, he’s not even a free agent but in any respect, and already there’s buzz that the Dodgers might be scorching on his ass as they bid to create a 125-win group. The kicker is that in keeping with MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand, the Dodgers would ask Mookie Betts to maneuver to second base to accommodate Decide, though Betts may be the very best defensive proper fielder round.
Think about pondering the Dodgers would wish to defend Chris Taylor in left a lot that they wouldn’t punt Decide over there to have the very best defensive outfield of Decide-Bellinger-Betts. Or they might let Bellinger stroll as a result of he retains going to the plate with a pool noodle as a substitute of a bat the previous three or 4 years and let Betts and Decide deal with middle off-and-on for a 12 months till they determine one thing else out.
You’ll assume Bryce Harper’s heroics would result in extra groups being in on Decide and dreaming of their very own moments, and it’s fairly protected that not less than the Giants and Mets make a passing effort. The World Sequence hasn’t even began, and the best chase is already on. How NBA of them.
