They needed to find out if more effective and modern coaching could fix Lynch and Bubic and Keller and Singer. Unfortunately, that grade is pretty incomplete with the injuries to Bubic and Keller. Lynch has shown some promise.
I wasn't sold on Witt at SS, either, but again, they needed to see what they had with him. What we have seen so far is that he can play a roughly average SS. That's an improvement from last season, but for me, with Garcia showing such good defensive ability, I'd be talking to Witt about 3B or CF long-term.
From an offensive profile standpoint, I'm interested to see if Witt can keep it rolling. His peripheral numbers have improved (Strikeout rate down, walk rate up, hard-hit rate up, exit velocity up, line drive rate up, ground-ball rate down).

It's still not acceptable to be pacing for one of the 5 worst seasons of all time.
If you were going to publicly ask for a new downtown stadium you as an owner need to look like you give a **** and he doesn't.
