if Frenchy were as good at baseball as he is likeable

he’d be a pretty good baseball player. Unfortunately it seems to be an inverse relationship

yeah he sucks, yeah for some reason he hasn’t quite reconciled that fact in his head yet, but I’m a sucker for anyone who looks like they’re enjoying the game (note, I can tell the difference between entertaining players and good players, and would much prefer the latter on my team in general)

I think it is GM's that are yet to figure out he is more hype than substance

he keeps getting $1,000,000 checks on a yearly basis.

I'd say he was well worth it in 2011.

Truthfully though, you don't have to do all that much to be worth $1 million in MLB.

Eh.

It’s more his baseball “skills” and his lack of adjustments that I object to. He seems like a decent guy overall.

That was one of my favorite moments of the 2011 season

(Though I suppose that also says a lot about the 2011 season.)

I’m such a sap…stuff like this is why I like Wright so much…even with his struggles in recent seasons.

is that because he caught the ball ?

or because he hit the target when he threw it ?.

That was a good story.

Bah.

This is his regular payment to the karma bank for being bad at playing baseball, yet able to maintain a position on a major league roster.

He’s still in arrears.

That's actually pretty awesome

He may be a crappy baseball player, but it’s nice to see guys with that attitude in our sport. Shows how the player-fan relationship in baseball is far superior to any other game’s.
