Defense is only half the game and basically none of the hobby value. So when someone says cards are dumb because’s he’s wildly better this year and he just needs to walk to be an MVP candidate, you have to laugh.

His cards are down because the market is down and he’s not meeting expectations for a second year in a row. The way top prospects are priced does not allow for them to have their performance grow into their pricing. They need to produce from the jump.
