The early results of the Amed Rosario, Center Fielder experiment were famously unsatisfying. With three errors right out of the gate, it’s charitably a “work in progress” for the soon-to-be-former infielder.
It would be nice if it would work out of course, but there’s something about Cleveland and their ability to simply have a decent center fielder. In fact, looking into it, the team hasn’t had a good center fielder since literally Michael Bourn. That by itself makes this whole eternal search for an outfield defensive ace even more bizarre.
The Bourn deal is looked upon as a bit of a boondoggle today, but at the time, along with signing Nick Swisher, these were signs that the team was actually trying to do something.
