you dont think it had something to do with getting out of low level minors

he has a long way to go to just getting to average here

How was Baez's age 21 season?

The AA numbers before and after the elbow injury lead me to believe it impacted him.

He struggled greatly last season in the first half against RHP in AAA then made an adjustment and was pretty good for the second half of last season and first half of this season in the big leagues. I think you have to see how he looks next spring/summer from that side before declaring a 21 y/o kid a failure from one side.

This hard on you have for trying to label Albies a failure is directly related to the Baez/Albies argument some were making earlier this year imo. Maybe I’m wrong but it seems pretty silly to me. He’s obviously not at Baez’s level yet but you are dismissing a 21 y/o who was a consensus top 25 prospect and has put up a 4+ WAR/162 pace over his first 200 games as a borderline piece. It’s bizarre.
