00:00It's it's funny how so many guys Alex Bregman is one of them and others

00:04Across baseball have moved positions and have said I'll do whatever is best for the team Alex Rodriguez

00:10I know people hate Alex Rodriguez

00:12But he was one of the best players of a generation and was the best shortstop maybe of all time

00:18He moved positions

00:21Jose Altuve is about to move positions Xander Bogarts moved positions last year

00:26Satan Rafaela moved positions every other game last year like guys move positions all the time and

00:33Especially when you suck at it like you are a bad

00:36Defensive third baseman in the case of Rafael Devers, right? You're not average. You're not Brooks Robinson. You're not

00:42You're so far away from me in a gold Glover

00:44You're like whatever the opposite of that would be that's what you are if they gave out a prize for the worst defensive third

00:49Baseman or position group, that's what they should do. We maybe we'll do that

00:54We give away like poop emojis the poop glove the poop glove we give away the poop gloves at the end of every year

01:01Yeah, poop glove trademark Johnson. That's us. Yeah

01:03Yeah that so then we'll go around the diamond in the outfield and we'll award the poop glove to whoever has the worst

01:08Glove and it happens to be Rafael Devers year-in-year-out third base

01:11And then this guy is gonna put his foot down and be like, I'm not moving positions. It's like we're not

01:16Swapping you out for some scrub either. We're literally the guy who won the gold glove

01:21Better prize last year. The team would be better. We're also not asking for any of the money back

01:27We're gonna give you all 300 something million dollars of your contract

01:31This isn't football right where they go to you and say, oh, you're now you we we need some money back

01:36Like it's a you have nine years left on a ten-year

01:42330 million dollar contract you get your money either way, right? So what's wrong with you? I don't get it and

01:47Like to be a DH especially for this franchise like not a slap in the face

01:52It's not like you're gonna be now that the hope is the next David Ortiz focused on hitting you're a great hitter

01:58Just do that and not only a great hitter, but over the last few years

02:02You've run into some nagging injuries, which were all caused in the field

02:06We're gonna eliminate that now. All you have to worry about is smacking the ball around. He's like, no, I gotta play third

02:12It's like why nobody wants you to play third

02:15You're the only person on planet Earth that wants you playing third
