One other amusing (to me) tidbit: Pete is 10th in the NL in walks, but 2nd on his own team (Busch), and 5 Cubs are among the top 20 batters in walks (Busch, PCA, Happ, Bregman, Suzuki).

17th in MLB. He was tied for 209th last year.

I get why people don't like him.  The antics and swagger.  You can't take the Hollywood out of him.   But Non-Cubs fans don't see him everyday or how he treats teammates, media, fans etc.  He's a genuinely very nice person and does his best to cater to media and fans. 

I understand you saying this, 100%. I would expect this from you. You are the fanbase who doesn’t like swagger. But baseball isn’t geared to your way of viewing the game. It is for people younger who like that stuff. I am not suggesting you are wrong in your opinion. It is your opinion, and I respect it. But I don’t think most younger people care if a guy pimps a bit or shows swagger. A hard core team of a rival team wouldn’t like PCA, I get that. But today there are a lot more fans of the game, not necessarily one team. Those people should love PCA.
