No sorry no stats grade him as decent this year. Last year the most favorable stats showed him as okay but all in all the gold glove was undeserved. To me I’d rather have the other argument. That even with his struggles he is still a 115 WRC hitter and his underlying batting numbers like hard hit and such show that he’s had better process than results. It’s valid to say he’s been a bit unlucky. But there is no way you can parse his defensive numbers from all the sources this year and not call him one of the worst if not the worst defensive 1b in the sport.
