Can't believe no one talked about this? He thinks he deserves a mulligan because of Covid!

 

Of course he did, Davis is hoping he doesn’t get the vaccine so he can reuse this excuse for 2021.

I used to feel bad for Chris Davis.

Used to.

I sorta felt bad for him until Jim Palmer revealed Davis’ talk about putting in extra work in the off-season was just talk.

He couldn’t stay healthy sitting on the pine in a short season. Happens to the best athletes all the time.

Seriously, I would much rather have all of those regular 1B/DH/COF ABs go to Mancini, Mountcastle, Santander, and Stewart, and the backup ABs go to Mullins, Shaw, and whoever else ends up in the mix, since some of those guys might actually be a part of this team's future, unlike Mr. Literally Can't Hit His Weight.

Oh wow, I somehow missed that one. What a wanker.

And to think, I used to be pretty bummed that one of my ex-gf's ended up with my Chris Davis giveaway bobblehead because it was at her place when the (fairly messy) breakup occurred. No big loss, on either count lol.

By "I'm not going anywhere," does Chris mean he'll skip the road games? That would be OK.

Or maybe he means he's going to stay in Florida. That would be even better.

Epic Palmer rant from 2018 and I found the clip. It's worth 2 minutes to watch.

Woooooow. Just wow.

Cut. The. Check.

He’s almost daring the team to cut him.

Part of me wants them to keep him and never give him an at bat and just “bash” him in public. He still ultimately wins because he gets paid but just continue to hurt his pride.

Play him on the road in every spring training game and then never let him off the bench once the regular season starts.  Just act like he isn't there.

I was just going to post this.  Feels like a dare.

Convert Davis to a spare bullpen arm.

Yep and when they ask, why isn’t he playing...you simply say because he’s not good enough to play.

Davis: I’m a MLB baseball player 

Everyone else: The problem is you’re not any good

I agree. He could finish out any blowout losses and save the bullpen arms.
