Abrams was rushed to MLB because of the Tatis injury. And it probably stunted his development again. I’d leave him in AAA and let him develop a bit more.
Move Garcia to 2B and leave him. That's his position in the future. No reason to train him into SS, which he can't play. Find a temporary short-stop until September, then bring up Abrams.
- Robles is a bad baseball-thinker. He never learned to play against people with talent. Maybe he's the Jeff George of CFs.
- Bell is a better fielder and better hitter than when the Nats got him.
- Ruiz has developed into a good catcher and a steady hitter. He has not hit many home runs, but that is OK. Wilson Ramos hit home runs, but he was a clumsy catcher.
- Cruz is a flop. He has been all season. A bad signing. A team ought to use the DH spot to give a decent-hitting position player a rest, or to find a spot for a guy recovering from injury.
