Am I being too pessimistic? Yeah probably. Just really dislike that average.

I don't either although I think if your the Jays you are certainly hoping health is a factor there. Last year seems to be quite a drop from his normal numbers.
The one thing that helps me feel better about it is he draws a good amount of walks. Jays were not very good in this area and Chapman would have been second only to Vladdy last year in walks.
