I get that the Cubs want flexibility at DH (and also to not have to play Nick "The GIDP" Madrigal every day) but this Morel at 3B thing is uh... not working out.

Busch is an even worse 3B than Morel, the Dodgers only played him there last year because they were annihilated by IF injuries and needed somebody to fill the hole even if they were out of position.

Busch can't play third, he can barely play first. Real 2022 White Sox rear end lineup

Move Morel back to 2nd where he'd have more time to react and move Nico to 3rd?

Maybe? He’s had more time there in the minors AFAIK. That last play feels like something that just comes with reps but I’m not optimistic about Morel learning on the job

Also Shōta rules

Ever since Nico declared he was going to unlock his power this season he sure has still been hitting for zero power while also now swinging at a lot of dogshit!

I mean he might end up being fine, he hit like crazy in the minors and was a top Dodgers hitting prospect. It is still kinda weird that we traded a really good pitching prospect for him though when we already had Mervis who falls into the exact same "1B, great AAA hitters, hasn't proven it yet in the majors" mold.
