I was just going to post something similar.
Indeed on Sir Didi, the guy has fallen off a cliff...
Not quite, he was good in the abbreviated 2020, but was bad last year and has been downright putrid this year.
His defense has also gone straight downhill. He's no longer a strong glove at short.
Every other year, though... woof. So bad.
I knew he'd been bad since, but looking at the numbers, wow. He's done.

Too bad, he's a really likeable guy.
Love Didi. But probably no way back .

They both suck defensively but IKF is probably a hair better at this point. Calling up Peraza makes way more sense then bringing in Didi.
in 2022, not well. Didi was having a poor season in the field as well as at the plate.
You should have seen social media yesterday, it was almost as bad as people harping for Brett Gardner to be resigned.

Before anyone says it... no. He has been awful since 2018.

Yep. An embarrassing number of people were seriously campaigning for the Yankees to bring back Didi when they have a 22-year-old with a plus glove killing it down in Scranton.
Calling up Peraza now makes so much sense. Now is the time to see what he can do in the majors. The Yanks kind of need to know what they have there both for this postseason and for next year forward. IKF would be a fine utility guy.
It could provide a little spark, too.
The Dodgers called up Miguel Vargas a couple of days ago - he went 2/4 right off the bat. I don't know what the hesitance is, but I hope it's something they'll seriously consider and soon.

they're the same people who write the "if only George were alive" nonsense.

agree. and Florial too. If they didn't sell high then bring him up! He's been on fire for 70 games.
