And that's okay.
I'll be called an idiot.
But I get it because I know I'd feel that way about my young arm.
And so I'll say it for you guys as Yankee fans the way our last caller said it.
Let's go to John in Matawan.
Hey, John.
How are you guys doing?
All's well.
I just don't know what you're basing that on.
The first part of your phone call is that he's a declining player.
Is he really a declining player?
Yes, 25 wasn't as good as 24, but that's because 24 was arguably the best player
season of his entire major league career, maybe outside of one year in Cleveland.
Yeah, 18 in Cleveland.
He had a great year last year.
Like, okay, maybe great is too strong, but he had 30 home runs.
He drove it over 80 runs.
He had an OPS over 800.
His defense, yes, declined a tad, but at 32 years old, I do not have enough evidence to just say he's a declining player.
Will he eventually decline?
