I still have a lot of confidence that Moncada will be a very good baseball player for many years to come.

I think with his work this offseason, he is going to show that in the 2019 season.

He's SOOOO horseshit right handed. His righthanded OBP is Tim Anderson, and his everything else right handed is worse than Tim Anderson. People say, "just give up switch hitting". Not so simple since he's been switch hitting since he was 15. Been a long time(if ever) since he saw breaking pitches going another way than he's used to. I'm not predicting he's a bust, but I'm preparing myself that he could be.

It is way too early to give up on him even his right handed hitting. I do not think that he will be a power hitting guy right handed but could be decent right handed. ANd with the advent of the power left handed arms in baseball, having a guy who can compete with lefties from the right side is a good thing.

What do you base that on? Just curious.

He's 12-18 months older than he's listed, he's got 800 career at bats and a dogshit BA( .235) and obp(.309) he's not a good fielder either.

It's hard to argue with "he sucks" when 217 Ks are involved in 650 PA. Thank God he walks but that's small consolation.
