Does it? One of the most disturbing things to me about Rosario this year has been his defense, which to my eye test has looked solidly below average, and the metrics that we have (flawed though they are) pretty much agree.

Does Gimenez have the potential to play average or better defense at short? If so, I don’t think it should be just ordained that Rosario has the starting job there.
