Of note is this positional adjustment chart:
0 RF
+1 CF, LF
+4 SS, 3B
+7 2B
+10 1B
This means that if a RF scores at 90, then you'd expect him to score at 83 while playing 2B. This is because RF sometimes get running starts and 2B are flat footed.
Trevor Story ranks 56 out of 64 at 2B. With the positional adjustment, he'd be 47 out of 49 at SS (tied with....Dansby Swanson)

Yeah I think this confirms that Story is not playing SS again. They signed him to be their 2B for the next half a decade, and the move is looking better every day I think. His glove is going to be really valuable there now that the shift has been banned.

Fascinating! Lots of not so great arms in the Sox infield, though I refuse to believe Raffy can't throw the ball at least 114 mph.

Yikes, that's worse than Story listed at 150. Not sure what Bloom thinks of that. |

ADD: Maybe you were just looking at 2B/SS/3B, where Story is 151 and Bogaerts is 85 out of 158.

Yup that's exactly where I confused myself. Sorry. |

Duran's ranking is certainly a bright spot. At 87.2 (91st of 153) MPH overall and 91.1 (119th of 153) MPH max it seems talk of his 'noodle arm' have been greatly exaggerated. Not great - but very playable. Now let's see if he can learn to catch a flyball in the sun. |
