I can hear an argument for that. But to go from WS MVP and gold glove to a dude who should be fighting for playing time in sugarland is extremely disappointing
Thats a ridiculous exaggeration.



Agree to disagree.
He's going to end up with a 3ish WAR. That'll put him in or near the top 10 in baseball for SS.

Disappointing after last year, but stupid to say he's a marginal AAA SS.

But even in disappointment, Peña is probably going to put up a 3.0 WAR season (2.3 bWAR right now, albeit 1.6 fWAR).

So if a ball gets hit to the guys in LF does Blummer knock TK down to make the catch?

Pena is been pretty much the same this season as last year in the regular season. The only reason people are disappointed with him is because he got red hot in the playoffs... a 12ish game sample size.

I watched it twice. I don't see how that is Bregmans fault. Wong had no idea where the ball was and ran into him.

Defensively seems far worse based off eyeball test than last regular season

He's been a little worse offensively and quite a bit worse defensively. We'd all hoped he'd get better offensively and keep playing GG defense. I think its valid to not expect he was going to stay postseason-hot but still be a little disappointed at the drop off.

But he's still a good MLB SS.

Does Bregman being out of the box come into play there? Because he was.
