Gleyber Torres is in the midst of an uninspiring age 24 campaign. He’s sitting at a career-worst 91 wRC+ with a mere .097 ISO (Isolated Power). His defense has also been terrible, with -8 DRS and -7 OAA. To put it plainly, Torres has been an abhorrent shortstop and has made a case to be one of the worst in the league. When you’re a bad defender, you have to hit more than expected just to make up for it. The issue is Torres can’t hit or field, and it’s made people question if he should even start.
