With Elvis Andrus back to play second base for the White Sox, should the club actually be considering a middle infield switch?
Team USA's rise to the World Baseball Classic finals is definitely a huge inspiration for this article. The team has threeplaying for it, one of which is shortstop Tim Anderson, who has become a mainstay in Team USA's lineup. However, Anderson did not start the first couple of games for his country. Phillies shortstop Trea Turner mainly manned short and Mets 2B/OF Jeff McNeil played second.
However, after McNeil's poor start in the competition and Anderson quickly performing, USA manager Mark DeRosa realized it was beneficial to have both Turner and Anderson in the lineup at the same time. As such, Anderson moved to second to allow Turner to remain at short.The lineup change has been largely successful, with Team USA just one win away from back-to-back WBC championships. Further, Anderson is doing a darn good job calling second home during the tournament.
