Can Herrera be taught to play the position?


The unearned run in yesterday's game was the difference in the 2-1 loss to the Pirates.
Wasn't that on Gray?

Yeah, the hitting want the problem :roll: the walks...nah

From J. Denton

When the first baseman looked to second, Gray dropped his head as he was running to cover the bag and didn’t see Contreras’ underhanded throw.

Other shortstops with a lot of range will sometimes have more errors because they are getting to balls throwing from angles and making players the other guy would never even get close to
You mean like Cal Ripken and Jeter as he aged?

Herrera was moved from behind the plate because of his atrocious defense. So yeah, let's move him to the position that receives the second-most throws per game.
