Triolo Golden

Wow, being a Pirate and all, I didn't think he had a real shot, especially not with a Dodger and a Card as the competition. Must've deserved it double.

I thought finishing runner-up at best, but he did post some special numbers defensively at 3B, 2B, and SS. Happy for him and the Pirates.

Hope his bat can develop to league average. With his defensive abilities, he'd be one of the best super utility players overall.

he´s already our best third baseman

Triolo is an irreplaceable part defensively, especially with the injury issues with Ke'Bryan Hayes at 3B in 2023 and 2024. I had lost hope for him at the plate with that "high hands" pre-pitch, but he dumped that approach late, and was a different hitter the last 3 months of the year.

So Yean did re-up.

"Sure, if you follow the organization closely, you’ll recognize each name on some level, but even compared to a typical year there’s not much to write home about when it comes to this particular group of players."

My thought exactly when reading through the list.
