The most infuriating pitcher I've ever watched.

Good riddance.

I could be completely wrong, and I didn't get Bally's, but it always seemed to me he was a bit of a mope, and a guy that was just biding his time until free agency like some of the 1990s players. Some guys are just reserved, but I think if he were a clubhouse leader, he'd still be here. I never heard any interviews where teammates praised him for non-pitching traits like they do with Lugo, Waga, and Ragans for his grit.
