You guys act like Butler is some hard to find commodity when in reality he isn't. I don't disprove of him being on this team but I wouldn't care if he were traded either. |

Guys who can consistently OPS .830, like Butler, ARE hard to find.

Stfu. He's a 1.5 war player making $8m. He's a value killer this season, quit trying to defend his loser season. Fatass didn't come even close to justifying his pay.

Out of 255 everyday players.
That places him at the 82nd percentile. He outperforms 81.96 percent of all other major league starters. Terrible. Who wants that guy?

A lot of that has to do with walks which several of were intentional and I would speculate were also earlier in he season before everyone figured out he will swing at junk and is a DP machine.

Practically every one of Billy Butler's ratios has improved in the second half of the season (as crunch time has increased). His K rate is down. His BB:K rate is up (His walk rate has actually decreased, so he has drastically cut his K rate). His average is up. His slugging is up. He's seeing more pitches to hit and doing more with them.
