A couple weeks ago, there was a report that Nolan Arenado was available. I thought “ha, that’d be interesting, but we don't need a third baseman.”
Also at this time, it was being widely considered that Josh Naylor would be traded. That no longer looks anywhere near certain, but I didn’t know that at the time, so I thought “well, maybe we can play Arenado at first, and have the world’s greatest ever defensive infield.” I didn’t post this anywhere because it was a far fetched thought.
But wait!
