What? Optimistm!? Who are you as what have you done with dmetz?
lol. Kang was an elite hitter in 2016. elite is not a word I throw lightly. He has a cannon of an arm, a good glove, and can play 2b, SS, or 3b.
To me, the idea that he forgot how to play baseball after playing the game for 20 some years of his 31 years old life is very, very, unlikely. Sometimes I have to remind myself that John Kruk was good at this game. This isn't rocket science for guys with tools like Kang... The ball explodes off his bat. he has peripheral value even if it doesn't explode off his bat anymore.
My expectation is that he's a middle of the order bat, legitimate, by July 4th.
Id like him playing shortstop.
