Baseball is a game of adjustments.
Coming up to the big leagues for the first time is the adjustment in and of itself — figuring out your role within this new landscape and creating the player that you’re going to become. You’re starting on a somewhat blank canvas.
For some hitters, such as White Sox second baseman Yoán Moncada, those adjustments don’t always produce stunning results right off the bat.
About to enter his second full season in the majors, Moncada put up somewhat of a dismal performance in 2018, which followed up somewhat of a dismal stint of 49 games in 2017.
