Ben Zobrist: Righteous Dude

[Ding Dong Johnson]

John Lackey: Serial Killer?

[Sammy Sofa]

That was very funny.

 

And mojo really should be putting all his efforts into anti-Lackey posts.

 

I'm not anti-Zobrist.

 

Plus everyone already knows Lackey is a disgusting hump, so it would be redundant. Zobrist is an enigma.

[Gilby]

Catching the fake arrow is totally something Starlin would've done. In fact, I think it was just fun enough to get him out of creepy weirdo status.

Ben Zobrist: Funny and Good

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Ben Zobrist is playing at a 9.5-win pace. He currently ranks second among all major league second basemen in UZR.

 

For the record, Starlin is playing at a 1.2-win pace. Boy, I'm glad we made that swap.

Plus we got Warren so, yay us.

This vendetta some of you can't let go if is, fittingly, both creepy and weird.

read all of these reasons why we're better off with Zobrist over Castro.

 

now look at this image and totally change your mind

[Sammy Sofa]

This is kind of a Jim Edmonds-like situation; one can appreciate the good play while still recognizing that the player is indeed a creepy weirdo.

actually horsefeathers starlin

I mean it was some of the best GIF usage I've ever seen. That alone deserves a like, vendetta or not.

The best part about this thread is that Mojo has to remind people on almost every page to stop telling him how good a player Zobrist has been and to focus on his "creepiness".

 

Should have started a Kris Bryant: Sex Addict? thread instead.

most sex addicts are also alcoholics but not all alcoholics are sex addicts so we should make no assumptions

He for some reason really badly wants the idea to take root that Zobrist is like some antisocial kiddie porn hording creep or something.

no it's worse he's evangelical

[Clem Fandango]

The complaints Mets fans have about their IF depth makes me appreciate the Zobrist signing even more. I don't think 2016 Cubs are the outright better team if the Mets successfully landed Zobrist.

 

I just noticed they basically only have one infielder and a utility guy, and they're both pretty bad.

 

Meanwhile Dilson Herrera (MI) has 8HR and a .894 OPS and Ty Kelly (super utility guy, seems like) is batting over .400 with a 1.053 OPS in AAA (and he's also had high quality K:BB ratios over his career).

 

Ty Kelly also looks like Tywin Lannister

If Jerry Falwell gave us a 6-win season at second base, I'd be a big fan.

Well, most people were making fun of him being a weirdo before this thread, so I figured it would be a hoot to find examples of him not being a creepy weirdo. I figured if someone wanted to make a Ben Zobrist: Awesome Player thread they would have done so, but instead it's this weird thing like I must be annoyed he's doing so well, which is...creepy. Creepy and weird, some might say.

I'm not sure people are targeting you when they post good Ben Zobrist stuff in this thread. I think we're just treating this as the Ben Zobrist thread at this point. But then you fight the posting of good Ben Zobrist stuff in here so it seems like it's aimed at you.

[Sammy Sofa]

It's bitterness over my Rizzo thread being usurped.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Really, I would like to just post good things about Zobrist. I do find this extraneous bit of nonsense amusing, though. So I'm probably going to continue with my haughty derision of Starlin, as I proselytize until Sammy joins in my enduring love of our creepy God-warrior.

[Sammy Sofa]

But...I already like him.

[minnesotacubsfan]

You can't LIKE him, you have to LOVE him
