[Brock Landers]

Are they actually paying this bum 180 Mil?!

He must be hurt, cause the guy is doing absolutely nothing.

[jjgold]

He is ok but not a real feared hitter. He might be worth like 5 million a year tops. Baseball players are so over paid.

He is a notorious slow starter. He is still one of the top 3 all around first basemen in baseball.

Agree

Brock, stop fukking critizing players only a couple games into the season. It's a longgg year and we'll see if he's worth the money as the year goes on.

[Tsoprano]

As a side note, YES he has been absolute mother ****ing garbage so far

Especially with men on base

[Brock Landers]

The guy needs to be feared, how does he get that kind of Money and Pujols doesn't? Pujols is 10X the hitter

[jjgold]

Pujos is on a different level, how about 10 levels higher

Same old story. A guy signs a mega contract and then does what the higher ups tell him to do and that is to lay his bat down when his team is heavily bet. Goes on in all sports. What is amazing is we have guy betting over the age of 30 who still can't see it even tho it is right in front of their face.

so they paid him 160 million so that they could throw games? which game has he thrown? guys have bad games all the time. even the best hitter are out over 65% of the time

pujols .302.
texeira .304

There are better stats than batting average. And Pujols is clearly better than Texeira in almost all of them. But that really isn't a knock on Texiera.
