Chapter 788 Good Boys and Bad Boys

"What's Molina's personality like? Everyone is staring at him. Will he cry again if he doesn't perform well?"

Can he take on such a heavy role?

Skills, personality, appearance, etc...

"Actually, it's understandable. He was only 18 years old in the WBC, and he has been playing smoothly. No matter who he is, he would be inflated. In the end, he was struck out by his closest relatives in such an important game. Emotional I definitely can't stand it. It's true to say that it's crying, but it's also coquettish, doesn't Yuri always say that this child is a bit arrogant, and the effect of teasing is unexpected hahaha~"

Some scouts patted their legs in agreement: "My son and daughter like him very much. The son said that this man played well, of course he has the capital to be arrogant. It is normal to be provocative. Men also want to cry hahaha~ My daughter said that he The contrast is cute, but she is a little too shy, it would be better if she was more outgoing."

"Tsk tsk, I'm not introverted at all on the court. I think it's just too delicate. I don't grow a beard anyway, so I will look more imposing."

"Bah! Not everyone likes beards!" It was a scout under the Yankees who spoke.Unlike a bunch of young players in the team who like to grow beards to look mature, their family's team tradition is very strict. It is best for everyone to be clean-shaven to match the perfect striped jersey.

"Hahaha~ You guys are going for Yum this year, don't daydream if you want to snatch him!"

"Who knows? The dream of players is to play at Yankee Stadium. Maybe he won't be selected next year or the next year, and he will join when he becomes a free agent?"

Hahaha~ "Are you stupid? If you really want to talk about your dream team, it must be the Cardinals first. He is a die-hard Cardinals fan."

"If you want to say this, isn't Yuri an Astros fan before he was in the Astros?"

"It wasn't adopted at that time, right? Maybe the astronauts are the ones you hate the most."

"Cardinals fans of course hate the Cubs, and it would be interesting to be picked by them, hahaha~ Although judging by the record, it's impossible."

"Speaking of which, players who are too well-behaved can't make fans crazy."

The scout in the corner couldn't help biting his pen, who is being cute? "If a player who dares to hold a knife, punches one punch, and swings a stick to the sky is considered to be well-behaved, then it can barely be considered..."

cough cough~
Do you want to be so direct?

Bad boy, good boy?What will fans like?

According to the current league, the representatives of the "good boy" are actually Trout of the Angels, Voight of the Redskins, and Goldsmith of the Diamondbacks (the plot is going to 18 years, and Goldsmith was traded in 18 When I arrived at the Cardinals, and renewed their contract for 5 years), they have never had negative news such as playing big names, domestic violence, etc., and even the occasional rancor on social media has never existed.

They don't talk much, and they are very friendly to his team's players and fans, so their popularity is naturally nothing to say.Of course, they are also very popular, but this popularity has a ceiling.

This may sound strange, is there a ceiling in terms of popularity?
But it does exist.

Fans love them, but they're never crazy about them, and their familiarity is limited even outside baseball circles.

Endorsement?advertise?It can be said that there are few pitiful ones or none at all.

Speaking of representatives of 'bad boys'!Those are two complete extremes.

Harper of the Washington Nationals (transferred to the Phillies in the same district in 19 years), Machado of the Orioles (traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the second half of the 18th season, and as a free agent after the season ended with the Padres Sign a ten-year, [-] million contract.) Los Angeles Dodgers' Pui Chrome (packed to the Redskins in the National League Central after the season).

These few are the most outstanding models, but their popularity is high enough if they can't stand it, and the topic will definitely move.

How 'bad' is it?In fact, it's not bad, but a certain aspect of personality is very topical.

Lazy Machado, Harper the best at throwing punches, and Pui Chrome, the most powerful money-sucking gangster.

Machado is an ego player. He only does what he thinks is meaningful and doesn't care much about other people's opinions. (However, I don’t think it’s a big deal if he doesn’t run the bases seriously. Of course, it’s very important, but it also depends on the occasion. In many cases, it’s unnecessary to get yourself injured, especially when he’s on a contract year, so he can protect himself and light up his life’s money. What if the injury is halved? And he loved it very much, and he played WBC very seriously. I think this topic has been brought up by others for so long, and I think it is no different from thinking about blackening you.)
As for Harper, a bunch of players don't like him, saying he's overrated.But is he really not playing well?I think it's great, and the fans are obsessed with his arrogance.

Harper stands for Popularity!Hustle and bustle of commercial value!
Shohei Otani is popular enough, the whole island of Japan supports it, and Asia also has a sufficiently loyal fan base.But the value he brings to the team is still limited, and slowly those season ticket holders fade away.

But Harper, as soon as he transferred to the team, the record was broken.As far as the team is concerned, they want players to help them make money.

As far as the league is concerned, they like players who can drive topics.What's so great about throwing a stick?Headlines!
Shake your hair?Headlines!
Even clearing the bench can make headlines N times!
The words of Puychrome are more complicated. He was born in Cuba, where the relationship with the United States is extremely complicated.In order to come to the big leagues to play, most people can't even imagine what they have to endure.

Find a smuggler to smuggle in, be imprisoned, and everyone wants to get a lot of money from him!
disobedient?Several groups of people can break him down!It's not scaring, it's real bangbangbang!

But how did he do it?The deceitful parties, not to mention that they arrived in the United States safely, even sent people to prison. (later died, the process is unknown)
Swallow all the signing bonus. (I don’t know if it’s true, but no one else received the money, so~)

And this player has extremely distinctive personal characteristics.

He has the strongest, bestial build and physical prowess. (I don’t know who would dare to fight with him. Molina did, but I didn’t fight. But I think Molina might be knocked down with one punch. I’m so nervous when I’m typing this time.)
He also has the weirdest habits, such as - licking his own bat!Really lick! ! !
He also has a fiery temper that a bunch of people can't stop!Have you ever heard of one-to-one 25, one person against one team?
This guy is that kind of person!

Compared with KELLY who is sitting on other people and shaking his fists, this one is really lethal!

And even his teammates who tried to stop him could be thrown to the ground! (I think his physical fitness is an absolute football model)
But so what, many people love them, and many people hate them, but they can't stop the popularity they bring!

Whether it's a praise or a boo!There are many people who buy their jerseys and watch the game for them!
