I think Grandal will become a big fan favorite in Chicago. He will be a deep injection well of baseball knowledge that will keep the infield focused - the pitchers confident and provide his share of the offensive fireworks. He not only fits the description of a baseball catcher, but he is the embodiment of the guy who can make his teammates better by his presence.
Clearly not if people are actually dumb enough to think a .246 career batting average is more valuable than a career .350 OBP. Even though the guy with the .350 OBP also outslugs the other over each of their careers by almost 60 points and has a 32 point higher OPS+.
That's next level stupid.
