[QUOTE="eMitch, post: 1445697, member: 4793"] Disagree on DeJong. I tried looking up some stats and the defensive range ranking (RngR) had him ranked 4th in MLB. UZR/150 he was 4th and his overall defensive rating was 5th. I was quite impressed with his range on more than a few occasions. I did see a 2018 preview article that projected him to be -6 in defensive runs saved, but he ended up +14. And to say Goldschmidt is a "little" better? I think he's a tremendous upgrade. Carpenter is terrible at first, so is Martinez. We had a big upgrade bringing Matt Adams back. We're going from probably the worst defense in the league at first to a Gold Glover. Carpenter actually rates above average at 3rd, so it's a 2 position upgrade. We're better at 3rd, we're way better at first. [/QUOTE]
