    Yep. They were practically in last a couple weeks ago though. I just want them to go back to that level

    Albies isn't even on pace for 2 WAR. I guess that deal isn't such a bargain anymore.

    Ozzie and Josh are going to heat up just in time for Riley and Dansby to cool off.

    The offense isn't really that great. They are being carried by Rendon, Soto, and Kendrick. No one else with significant AB's is really doing that well. The rotation, also, has a strong front 3, but they are aren't getting much from their 4th and 5th starters. Anibal is league I guess so he's doing about as well as expected. Not sure how they are doing defensively, but we know that Soto and Adams are huge liabilities. Eaton appears to have lost a step as well. BP is obviously their main weakness and will likely be their undoing unless addressed.

    I’m willing to bet he finishes the year with a WAR over 2.

    defense and bat have both been much worse. can defense rebound like offense can?

    Yes. I’m not buying he suddenly declined defensively at 22.

    sure, but with offense you can sometimes see where it's been bad luck and whatnot. not really the same with defense. let's hope he's super strong in the 2nd half.

    Neither contract kicks in this year really. So they are both pouting until money starts to flow.
