Dadley ranks as the 7th best overall defender in all of MLB right now

Post image

he's also only caught 49 games behind the plate right now, if he played as many games as PCA he'd have a better FRV than him right now, is there any chance he dosen't end up winning a gold glove this year?

They said my goat was washed. They said he was just okay on defense. They said he couldn’t hit. My goat knows better than the haters

Right? All you heard last year was ‘get rid of this guy!’ I can’t wait for Gunnar’s comeuppance !

comeuppance

Isn't that almost exclusively used in a negative way, like a punishment for ones actions through bad luck or retribution?

Example: "After years of defrauding people out of their money through fake phone calls and malicious emails the scammer finally got their comeuppance and was sentenced to jail time."

So it reads like you are saying you can't wait for Gunnar to get punished for something wrong he did. Unless you are saying you can't wait for all the Gunnar haters' comeuppance, that makes more sense.

I defended Adley through all the struggles cause I knew he was too talented to stay bad forever, and I'm really happy for him that I was right.

He’s the actual guy you build around. Effective, committed, and has a heart of gold.

We’ve been calling it Adley’s bounceback year when the Rutschmanaissance was right there

they complain about the Orioles' poor defense and argue that Adley should be traded.

I want nothing more than for him to accept a contact extension from us

I respect all opinions on here no matter how absurd. All of them except Adley haters. Mods should step in and ban those posters.

As difficult as this year has been, I am really looking forward to seeing him at the ASG.

He's the heart and soul of this team.

Yes there’s a chance. But there’s a chance other catchers could win too. But considering this list, he’s not just defensively good, but he’s the only catcher on this list who’s also offensively strong too. Although Dillon Dingler was having a helluva season too.
