Yes, I admit, I was one of those with a fan-crush on Correa for the way he conducted himself last year. Unfortunately, it’s still possible to have leadership qualities and bad ideas—like supporting Popkins or deciding unilaterally that Buxton should DH. Yes, he can still be a leader, but he needs to hustle consistently (like running out of the box, rather than admiring his rare home runs) and be a little humble about his analytical smarts
Thankfully, his D is still good. I enjoy that.
