I've been critical of him in the past, but seeing him emerge this post season has been amazing. It's the production, the aggressive fielding. But it's the little things, like him telling Scherzer to disguise his pitches more early in yesterday's game. A small thing, but a really important detail that shows how locked in he is, and that he is willing to even do that with future HOFer Mad Max.
