Luis Arraez hit his 2nd homer of the year in 3 days which means I am officially a non-ball knowing dumbass. While I have been absolutely victimized by the A's AAA ballpark I made the rules and must own up to it. He's been good
Official declaration:
If at any point this year Luis Arraez has a 7 game stench with a .700 SLG or 1.050 OPS I retract everything bad I have ever said about him and publicly admit to not knowing ball

@MCL_71 Maybe I'm coping but I've come around on Keaton showing enough to take at 9 even if he's still super raw. Like I sewered him top 5 but I think it was the right thing to do at that spot
Like I had a whole ass think piece about forcing a wasian kid in a white dominated space who was raised in said white culture to be your figurehead yellow puts undue pressure on him that he will never meet, but now we gotta deal with this shit
Because they get literal nothing for it, the answer is, "they don't want to." The players hold a very small amount of power here and choosing to exercise it is well within their rights
@MCL_71 My justification/cope is that in my head Lin is super high floor and with him it makes betting on the upside of Keaton being visited by a genie of some sort and learning hockey MUCH more tenable
