The Guardians just lost another winnable game to the Reds and I'm upset.
Do you have a guess of what the wRC+ is of Guardians centerfielders and right-fielders in 2025?
First clue, they rank 29th in MLB in this category. Ahead of only the Rockies.
Second clue, it is 1 wRC+ ahead of Austin Hedges' career wRC+.
It's 52. Half of league average production.
I appreciate that the Guardians tried to address this by acquiring Nolan Jones. I even like the idea of giving Jhonkensy Noel a chance to build on his 2024. And I know Lane Thomas has been hurt.
