Get me a cab
It was the best of debuts, it was the worst of debuts. So Cabrera comes to Boston and promptly: 1. hits a homer and 2. makes an error. Um, that sounds familiar. I thought the high-OPS weak-defense model was done with?
Actually, it's one game, so I won't judge Cabrera. (Remember Deion Sander's supposedly electric return to baseball? Hello, small sample size!) I just really want to know: why is it basically the same team as last year's, with a defensive upgrade (Bellhorn/Reese for Walker) suddenly became gaffe-prone?
