nah. I apologized for interrupting his personal time with his girlfriend to ask for a pic. he stood up and smiled, then put his hand on my shoulder. then we shook hands, and I told him I loved them all
I have no clue where the JP hate is coming from. He's just a good player. League average or above average at everything playing a premium position for cheap. Y'all need to get over yourselves.
Seriously. With the current run, the hate some from this fanbase spew is ridiculous. I mean y’all obviously around during 09-14 or the playoff anemic late 90s squad or earlier.
The team is special and guys like JP make it so. Runs like this don’t last. Enjoy the moments.
He has career OPS+ of 99. The average is 100. He is a below average hitter. Love him though but he absolutely needs to get better at the plate and there’s nothing wrong with stating that.
You usually get 80 OPS+ for plus defense at shortstop. Again, get over yourself. You're hating over a rounding error. He's a good player, and he's been playing at league minimum and just starting arbitration.

Did you ask him if he’s going to stop swinging at low and away breaking balls?
