As someone who lets one or two errors trigger them into calling a player bad on defense (see Jared jones as well), that would probably be a futile exercise on my part.

When have I called Jones bad on defense? I have said that he is an average defensive first baseman many times, which I will stand by.

I am asking you what makes a player a bad defensive SS.

Jordan Thompson had a stretch where he couldn’t throw the ball to first base. I wasn’t sure he’d ever get over it. That was erratic & bad.


And When it was said & done, i wouldn’t even classify him as a bad SS. He just had a bad few months. Playing SS is one of the hardest things to do in all of sports.

Braswell is fielding .920 right now. For reference:

Thompson 2023: .924
Thompson 2022: .894
Thompson 2021: .938
Hughes 2019: .961
Smith 2019: .957
Hughes 2018: .957
Robertson 2017: .963

Braswell is struggling, but it’s not as bad as people are making it out to be.
