I don't remember DJ Stewart as an infielder, so I slotted him in tenth, assuming he did more than Eddy Alvarez did.

What I like about this race is that Alonso can slot into a lot of places, and his future home may depend on where you slot him.



DJ Stewart got his https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/SLN/SLN202405060.shtmlone start at first on May 24, logging a two-out, first-inning RBI double among three trips to the plate against the Cards before moving to leftfield in the bottom of the sixth and ultimately lifted for defense in the bottom of the seventh.



But in a one-run game, for a team that only made the post-season by a three-way tie-breaker, THAT'S NOT NOTHING!!!!

What? No awards for every single distinct infield position? What gives? I feel so cheated. What a gyp.
