In today’s position review and preview, we focus on second base. A position that was very much in flux a year ago and now appears to be very set. We discussed just how good Andres Gimenez was this year. We debate if he is the greatest second baseman since Roberto Alomar or Jason Kipnis with apologies to Ronnie Belliard. We got into a season that surprised everyone and ended up going down as one of the greatest seasons a Cleveland second baseman has ever had.

We talked about a silly trade offer that popped up that was just fun to discuss as it was as ridiculous as they get. Then we talk about who could be the players to back up Gimenez next year. There are three players who stand out for the role with Tyler Freeman, Gabriel Arias, and Owen Miller. We talk about what is likely to happen. Who might be best in the role, and how do they handle the ridiculous amount of infield depth this season currently has?   

Lastly, we get into the prospects and try to focus on the players who are more likely to end up at second base. We focus mostly on maybe the most underrated prospect in the entire system Angel Martinez. The son of Sandy Martinez has continued to shine at every level in spite of being consistently the youngest player at the level he is out. We also discuss Jake Fox the 19-year-old who had one of the best walk rates in the minors, but there are some concerns if he is too passive or not. We briefly mention Jose Tena, Bryan Rocchio, and Jhonkesy Noel (just seeing if you are paying attention).
