All in on Baez. The swing change has produced unbelievable results, with more to come. If you haven’t had a chance to watch him, you will not be disappointed. A guy with his tools cutting his K rate down to 20% is huge and indicates great things to come. He will take over RF in August and hold it for a decade.

Also, since Mathews was mentioned in this thread, he will be in the rotation at some point this summer and easily be one of their top three by the end of the year. Big bounce back incoming for him in 2026.

Yea, I didn't take it as a comparison to Wisdom as a player with a similar skill set. I think the comparison was moreso that Wisdom is a guy that better than a strict platoon player, but also not an everyday starter. And they think that Baez could be a player with a floor similar to getting that kind of playing time. Basically, I feel like they're saying Wisdom's ceiling is Baez's floor.
