They’re not doing this because of analytics. They’re doing it because Bo has said on multiple times he’s a shortstop and wants to keep playing there. This is about not pissing off your young superstar and poisoning them relationship with him. Bo is only going to move right now if he completely fails or if he suggests it himself. And his numbers show while he’s not great he’s not awful either. It’s more mental right now than physical.

I also wonder why would you want to move him to third and Semien back to SS. Sure that’s good for SS but has Bo ever shown he can play 3b either? And no they’re not moving Vlad back. We don’t want Tellez as an every day player.
