Since 2021, Cleveland’s right field has become one of the weakest units in all of baseball. Within these five seasons, the position had become a revolving door. Will Brennan assumed the bulk of those at-bats, posting a paltry 87 wRC+ across 622 plate appearances, but outside of Brennan, 15 other players have taken at-bats in right, amassing a combined 93 wRC+, the 3rd worst mark in the American League in that span. It’s not been for the lack of sustained success either. This span is counting pre-injury Josh Naylor’s 123 wRC+ across over 200 plate appearances, Harold Ramirez’s 156 wRC+ across over 100 PAs, and even both Linsanity runs from Oscar Gonzalez and Jhonkensy Noel.
