That YouTube clip of the banter was great, really enjoyed that! I think Richards was a good pick up. Both he and Cimber came with control which seems to be the way the FO operates in terms of trades. We won't see any trades for high impact rentals this year. Next year maybe.
Not convinced Bo will turn into a reliable defender at SS. Is there precedent where a shortstop just turns it around defensively after such a shaky start to career? It’s not like it’s hitting and you’re learning how to hit big league pitchers…. Feel like you either have it or you don’t defensively (at short at least)

Tony Fernandez had 30 errors at SS in 1985. He turned out to be pretty all right at it.
You should look up a guy named Marcus Semien re: shortstops turning it around defensively
I looked him up and it says he now plays 2b
