    That is a lot of money he is in danger of missing out on. I'm not faulting him for wanting that $$$.

    This dude is genuinely hard to like, if he had any self awareness maybe the entire board wouldn’t think the same

    Would you give up millions of dollars so some random fans you'll never meet would like you?

    Lol he has been out more than the pitchers whose arms he is supposed to save. Same with the relievers whose arms he burns by going 5 innings. Atleast he ensures they don't pitch in high leverage situations since he has already put the other team on top

    low contact rate, lowish on base %.
    That being said he probably has a good game. Still, weird pick. Bregs gets on at a decent rate even though his average is crap. Also Bregs cant hit into a double play leading off the game.

    I hate pop ups almost as much as double plays. I remember when Bob Lillis seemed to be the king of hitting into double plays.

    I really don't like walking the first batter of an inning. Very bad.

    Lead off walks and two out walks seem to have bad ju-ju.

    One-out walks don’t seem to have the same stigma.
