    This is confusing to me. Are you saying that any player that has a slump is a bad clubhouse influence? So therefore, someone like Rosario, a notoriously streaky player that is prone to slumping, is a bad clubhouse guy? I don't quite buy that. Otherwise, I might buy the idea of a sulking player being bad for a clubhouse, but where have you heard reports that Sano sulks? So far I have heard nothing but positive reports from how Sano has behaved on his second(!) trip to single A in the last 10 months, something which a lot of former all-stars would sulk like crazy over...

    While true, that only includes his 3 games at AA. Include his 2 games at high A, and his 2019 average is .313. Obviously, competition at AA is better than high A, but generally we shouldn't read too much into Sano's stat line after 3 games. Heck, if he goes 2 for 3 for the next two games (e.g., he does fine, but not outstanding), his batting average will be up to .294. He is neither out of the woods nor up the river without a paddle. Too early to tell.

    Part of the problem is that changing the walls to be better cushioned would inevitably change the way that balls bounce off the wall, leading to way less doubles and way more inside-the-park home runs. Basically, a wall that absorbed the impact of a body would also absorb the impact of a ball, leading the ball to hit the wall and die there rather than bouncing back. Certainly not the worst thing in the world, but it would change the game quite a bit (including how every major leaguer has learned to play the outfield), such that I could see the players not liking it as it would leave them looking silly (much how basically every inside-the-park home run involves at least one player looking silly).
