So weird to attribute any of this to selfishness. Mookie bailed the team out and risked personal criticism by agreeing to play shortstop with near no notice days before the start on the 2024 season.

This seems like the most logical solution, but I have a hard time seeing it happen this year given Mookie’s stated desire to play shortstop, the time and effort he’s put into re-learning the position, and his solid performance there so far.
