    Seems like every year someone around here bitches about how we draft so many pitchers and not enough position position players ….

    This is why we draft so many pitchers -

    We need about six right now

    Interesting. I'm old and line-up construction up until the 1990s was pretty standard, but taken seriously, and wasn't analyzed. Then the first wave of analytics came along and contended that line-up construction was overblown in importance. Then the second wave comes along and line-up construction is undertaken with a keen eye toward analytics. I'm not that big of an Olson guy, but he is patient and that provides cover for Acuna's base-stealing and I don't know if that is in Albies' skill set.
