And it’s not like he’s getting DUI’s or beating up women, he’s just a little different. He has legendary (cashman’s words) bat speed and he was raking last season when he got the chance. The defensive issues are also a little overblown.
Watch him light it up as a Mariner or a Athletic once he gets traded.
I liked this post even though I HATE the last comment. Because I know that’s true.
I’m a big Clint supporter as well.
And criticism of his “personality” drives me insane. Since when is aloof a bad thing?? When is being disappointed about losing your starting spot because you got hurt trying to extend a play a bad thing?
This kid has dove head first in to a wall, puts his body in harms way to try and make plays and he gets criticized? Meanwhile we have numerous guys getting hurt off the field, and seemingly stay out of criticism way.
Clint carried the team last year early in the season, and no doubt that bat speed is a joy to behold.
Silver lining in this black cloud of injury is he and Andujar should get penalty of at bats
