Now that the Cleveland Indians have officially traded Francisco Lindor, let’s discuss their other left-side infielder who is actually a better fit for the Milwaukee Brewers: two-time All-Star, third baseman Jose Ramirez. Wouldn’t it be nice to fill that giant hole at the hot corner with a reliable, near-elite player for the next few seasons?
With guys like Christian Yelich, Keston Hiura, and Omar Narvaez finishing 2020 well below expectations, Milwaukee scored the 3rd-fewest runs in the NL (4.12) as one of the worst offenses in baseball. While it’s reasonable to expect a bounce back from at least a couple of those hitters, the Brewers need another high-quality bat to help ensure the offense jumps into the top half of the league (at least).
