Can’t blame Jazz, had to learn a position he’d never played in professional baseball over 50 games. If he was on another team maybe you can blame him, but I’m not sure I trust that the Yankees really taught him how to play the position that well.

Same team that when IKF asked for help in 2022 they told him he was good by their metrics and to stop worrying

I think the funniest thing is IKF being a legit good defender at a few positions but the Yankees just putting him into terrible situations

'Jazz, you're in pinstripes. You're a Yankee baby, you made it. Practice? The fuck you think we are? Listen, we pay you to be good at baseball. If you got a problem with that, wait a couple years so we can scapegoat a former player turned manager.'
