OF course Andres is a 2B.. Gold Glover and All Star.. no disagreement there..There's no more "SS is Gimenez's natural position" the same way Jose wasn't moving back to the middle infield after finding his spot at 3B.
Andres is a 2B. He's a gold glove winner and one of the best 2B in baseball. If possible, they'd prefer to keep him there.
When you ask "Is Amed worth the money" what you really need to be asking is if it makes sense to take that money away from a position of need. Let's say that in 2024, we need a starting pitcher. Would you rather be able to get that starting pitcher in free agency because you're paying Rocchio 720K a year, or would you rather have to go without that starting pitcher because you're paying Amed 12M a year while Rocchio rots away in the minors?
The money argument remains weak..
Free Agency is the land of diminishing returns.. EZ PASS..
No one is "rotting"
