He will help tremendously, no matter how you look at it.
We don't need him to have a career season, just replicate his ROY performance from 2021 and this offense will be rolling all year long. Assuming Vinnie can rebound and not just be a cardboard cutout with a stick, like he was when he returned from injury last year. His spring training AB's have not looked good, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now as he has proved he can hit at a high level in the past.
But I'm way more concerned about Vinnie's performance going forward than I am India's.
