Woodford has a 10.80 ERA. That's just too good for Cherington to pass up. And if he replaces Heller (ERA 49.50) it's a huge improvement! :)

And who says Cherington isn't doing everything possible to add talent to the team? Goodrum is a career .224 hitter who has batted a solid .190 since 2020!

Adding Goodrum makes it possible to jettison Heller.

So instead of getting rid of Alika Williams we’ve added a player who’s just like him? Yeah, that should make up the seven games we’re back of the Hated Brewers. How many non-productive middle infielders do we need? And this organization is trying to win.

It defies logic
Get rid of Heller. A must move
Replace him on the 40 man roster with a middle infielder who is currently hitting .103 and has a career .224 average.
How does this improve the team?

Ben is playing 3 dimensional chess again. While it looks stupid on just a single board, it will pay off down the road.

I would like to hear Ben's logic on this asinine signing

Ben never met a light-hitting utility infielder that he didn't want.

I kind of wonder if there is something more to that signing. Indy already has several infielders so maybe there is some trade in the works. I too was surprised by this signing.
