Sure, let's trade our longest-tenured home-grown star (the only-remaining link to the 2016 comeback team) for a 35-year-old 2B, who is coming off of a .669 OPS in
Texas.
This is also supposed to signal an upcoming trade of McNeil, because David "Wild Turkey" Stearns wants to get rid of ALL our Hometown Heroes to bring in overpaid aging ALers, which always works
soooooo well. Why has Uncle Stevie not fired this bozo yet?
But never fear! Perhaps Semien will bounce-back…instead of going down the sewer as old middle infielders tend to do. Perhaps he can once more scale the heights of 2024, when his OPS…was .699
Now he did win the Gold Glove last season, but his Range Factor was exactly the league average, so I'm not hugely palliated by that, I admit.
