2/5/21: Signed 2B Kolten Wong to a 2-year, $18 million contract. 40-man roster at 39.
At this point, Wong is probably average at best on offense, although he rode a BABIP spike to produce a couple of years of above average years at the plate. He is, however, one of the best defensive 2nd basemen in the game, with the highest total Defensive Runs Saved among 2nd basemen over the last 3 combined years. This move goes a long way towards shoring up the Brewers’ defense, with Keston Hiura, a poor defender, moving to to 1st base.
