Not for his height.
Id venture he hits ball as hard or harder than Bo ever did and runs the bases as fast or faster than Prime. Those guys were ridiculous and this guy is maybe even moreso. The fact that hes 6-5 is just silly to consider.

Guys, I need someone in here to remind me that Elly is NOT the best player in baseball because of his WAP+ and LIGMA.

His K rate is lower than last season and his BB rate is higher. He's OPSing 1.043 and is the 10th best offensive player in MLB right now by wRC+ (at 180).

So fun to watch him play baseball. I'm watching more Reds games this year because of him.

Glad you missed very obvious sarcasm.

It's truly amazing how you guys can't seem to actually talk about Elly here. The last three pages of comments has been about 95% "where are the haters" comments and 5% actually Elly talk. It's not worth listening to you guys play the victim and act like you're so afraid to say anything positive because all the "haters" come out of the woodwork to hang up.

So yeah, I'm done here. I'm sure nothing will change about this thread, because you guys just can't help yourselves.

LOL

The irony that this post was immediately preceded by posts talking about tonight's performance. The delusion is strong with this one. Not quite as delusional as thinking you won't come back to this thread, but delusional nonetheless.

He will be back. His ego won’t allow him to stay away trying to be the gatekeeper. Was literally complaining a week or so ago because the Elly thread was bumped by a post and back on page 1 - cried like a kid outside Toys R Us who did not get his toy he wants. If your only point is to find players to rip on might be time for a new hobby.

I am not saying he is the best player, not yet atleast, but he is the most exciting player to watch and nobody is close.
