@TheScubaPerson@JasonHirsch16@tbsports33 simpson might be a good defender now, and the largest chunk of his value will come from that, but he doesn’t profile as much more than an average hitter because you need to slug and draw walks to have good offensive output, or hit for insane average like arraez did from 2022-23
@TheScubaPerson@JasonHirsch16@tbsports33 arraez hit .303 over the past 2 years and put up a combined 2.3 bWAR and 2.0 fWAR over 304 games.

@mattdotbuild @BronxBmbrz Chuck Knoblauch was an all-star caliber acquisition they made to beef up the roster
