At the first of this year Olson was barely above the Mendoza line: the historical "if he goes below this we DFA him" line. His long, looping swing = strikeouts; slowest-man-in-the-universe means no infield grounders for hits.....but my wife says he's pretty. So, maybe.

Should've thrown that in the "eras and legacies" category.

My wife ALSO says he's pretty, so he's got that going for him, which is nice

The irony is that, after all is said and done, Matt Olson could end up as a Braves HoF while Freeman probably will not. I believe Freeman will be a HoF, but he will wear a "No team" cap in his plaque rather than choosing between the Dodgers and Braves.

If Freeman wins another World Series in LA, especially with an MVP award in the postseason, he probably has the Dodgers on there but I agree that right now, he's logo-less on the cap
