I guess that makes things more complicated if DeJong is struggling at the plate, you can't just sub Espinal/Merrifield/Biggio. Suddenly you're moving Bichette back and forth between ss and 2nd.
I agree, I think Bo should be a SS/2B. We're in a league where versatility keeps you in the lineup. Not saying Bo isn't good enougn to be SS or have to give it up, but Dejong with those kinds of numbers should absolutely be the SS in crunch time. Bo can be 2B or be the DH for the day.

If we reacquire Teoscar, the outfield gets crowded again with KK, Springer, Varsho, Merrifield. I would imagine Merrifield goes back to 2B if we needed the other 3/4 players to play outfield.

I think Biggio should be the next guy gone. Give him and something else of value for Teoscar. We will definitely need him now, especially if Bo is out for a bit.
