As we gear up for the 2025 season, the buzz around player recoveries and positional changes is heating up. Tim Anderson's journey back to form after a leg injury has sparked a lot of conversation. He’s been vocal about the mental toll of losing his swing and the bad habits that crept in during his recovery. How do you think mental health impacts a player's performance, especially after an injury?
On the flip side, Jorge Polanco's transition to third base raises questions about how positional changes can affect a player's game. Do you think this move will extend his career or potentially hinder his performance?
And what about the Orioles' catching situation? With Gary Sánchez expected to play against lefties, how do you see this impacting Rutschman's development? Is it wise to have a veteran like Sánchez in a backup role, or should the focus be on developing younger talent?
Let’s not forget about the Rangers' Adolis García, who is working on cleaning up his swing after a tough season. Do you believe that offseason adjustments can truly turn a player's performance around, or is it more about consistency throughout the season?
Lastly, with Ha-Seong Kim's recovery timeline pushing him past Opening Day, how do you think teams should manage players coming back from surgery? Should they prioritize a player's health over immediate contributions, or is there a fine line to walk when it comes to team needs?
Share your thoughts, bold predictions, and personal experiences with player recoveries and positional changes. What strategies do you think teams should adopt to maximize their rosters this season?
