I mean even if he has a Russell Branyan type career, it that really a bad thing?






Compared to the people posting in this thread, no.


But Branyan played in more than 116 games just once in his career. So hopefully Gallo's career mirrors Branyan's 162 game average and not his actual career, which I think will probably happen.

It's all about expectations really. If someone is viewing him as a superstar, well, they're likely to be disappointed. If one's expectations are realistic and take him for what he is, he'll be viewed as a good, successful major league baseball player.

When we're talking about cornerstone franchise players, the Carlos Correa and Kris Bryant immediately pops up to mind. Gallo doesn't fit in that category... and that's coming from a Joey Gallo fanboy.
