Riley needs to be given a chance to develop, at the ML level. He doesn't even have a full year of playing time w/the big club yet and people are already wanting to throw him out w/the bathwater.
I mean Jesus Christ....
Folks were ready to cut Dansby as well.
Sometimes players simply need time to develop. They aren't all going to be an Acuna or Soto right off the bat.
Granted, it took Dansby until Season 4 for him to put up above average numbers at SS, but I think it was worth the wait.

Exactly. And most players fall under the former category. Guys like Acuna, Ozzie(and even he struggled the 2nd half of his rookie year), Chipper and Freddie are exceptions to the rule, that's what makes them great and in Freddie's case, a future 1st ballot HoF'er.
We can all thank Chipper for Dansby. He revamped his swing prior to last year and we've all seen the results. Chipper is currently working w/Riley.
