But he can’t play league average D. What makes you think this? Definitely the worst 3rd baseman I saw last season

 

Small sample size last year but all of his defensive metrics were good last year and have been for a while.

Yeah Donaldson is still a very solid defender based on the metrics and has been for his entire career

 

At a glance it appears as though he may have had one of the unluckiest seasons in recent memory as he posted a .329 xWOBA but ended up with a .284 WOBA/78 wRC+ presumably due to the remarkably low .115 BABIP. The next lowest batter for comparison was Pete Alonso at .205. I went back 10 years and the next lowest BABIP with a minimum of 180 plate appearances (similar to what Donaldson received in 2023) was Ryan Schimpf in 2017 at .145.

Ok, I’m definitely old school and don’t pay a lot of attention to all of the crazy stats out there these days. Every game I watched he was booting balls all over the field and was booed mercilessly by the fans.

Even if anyone thinks Josh Donaldson is a good idea he ain’t coming because Florida man thinks Ross is a beta, right or wrong

I can't decide if that dude is a troll or the resident harmless crazy guy.

 

100% crazy person who may or may not be all these obscure posters that are hanging around lately. The dogg may be back.

"taken the lead"

 

lmao it never ends

 

It would be far more interesting if contracts were standardized and front office staff had to compete in physical challenges for the rights to players.

JD i'd sign him to a 1 year deal for 4 mill and he'd be a Sparkplug for the Organization.

 

Couldn't this have all been put into one mediocre post?

O and I definately go after Frelick in the Adames trade because he's awesome and talented and I want to watch his butthole.

 

That took a turn
