11. That Soto/Bell trade is starting to look like a bum deal

Bell is doing good, but that wonder boy, Soto, ain't doing it. His stick is just average right now, but his defensive game stinks! If he wasn't the super star, he would have been sent down to the minors for a tune-up. He ain't got no arm, Baby, and doesn't belong in right field. My Magic 8-Ball says he should be eased into left field, only that's Profar's wheelhouse.
