What? He was a late camp signing for $800K... What expectations did you have that he is letting down?

Career OPS is .733, with a .778 last year and he's posting a .653.   OPS+ is 86 compared to 94 career. Rfield of -2 indicates below average fielding, total  bWAR of 0.1 suggested he just slightly above replacement level.  Its still early, he does pass the eye test for me and has been pretty good situation hitter, but if those #s hold its disappointing for any FA 3B even one we signed for only $800k.

From yesterday's game... You know Franco is bad when he gets replaced in the 9th by Rio Ruiz for defensive purposes.
