North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Batting average is essentially meaningless in baseball now, even if it is still fun to look at the depths to which Davis has fallen. That was maybe the biggest point of Moneyball. A guy who hits .250 with a lot of home runs and a ton of walks is far more valuable than a guy hitting .320 with little power who never walks.

In 2013 Davis was only hitting .286 but had an OBP of .370 and with 53 homers had an insane slugging average of .630. Those are GREAT numbers.

Even in 2015 he was only hitting .260, but his OBP was .360 and his slugging was .560. Those are still good numbers.

But he did fall off with something fierce. Someone in the other thread said it was because they took his ritalin away from him.

Yeah I know, i get the money ball angle. All I'm saying is his overall production wasnt worth 7 years $161 million and hes one of the reasons why teams are not trying to pay those type of contracts anymore.
