    Can C. Considerations play third base better than Rafael Devers?

    Even with all that talent, I can't see him ever thriving anywhere. He's exactly the kind of player that you think SHOULD fit that mold and come back to break your heart with another organization, but I'm barely even concerned about it. He was given every possible opportunity and **** the bed every single time. He's a bed shitter. I'm pretty sure he would thrive in a professional bed ******** league, but until Major League Bed ******** is a thing, Forrest Whitley will remain irrelevant.

    Injuries greatly contributed to him crapping the bed.

    I wonder how this board would have reacted when he gave up on Curt Schilling.

    Whitley has never put it together. I don't think he will there either. They might give him a chance but I can't see him making anything of it. He couldn't here

    True, but if the man was tweaking his own mechanics against coaching advice (I'm pretty sure I remember reading something about that on this BBS), then he might have brought some of those injuries on himself.
