So while they're probably equal in the recent past and I think Gimenez has less downside on the field because more of his value is from his glove, those extra years increase the downside. If he ends up being terrible they're stuck with him for a long time.
Gimenez is also 3 years younger than Bellinger and only 2 years removed from a 6.1 WAR season, Bellinger is 5 years removed from that type of season.
