He also rates positively in UZR, and BP's FRAA. And he comes in even in Statcast's Outs Above Average. If he can be an average left fielder, or even close to it, he'll be just fine out there.
I still think he looks completely lost out there sometimes, but it's working out fine. horsefeathers defense anyway. Give me the dongs.

Yeah, that double after the Rizzo error the other night was a prime example. He took a bad line after misjudging the flight of the ball and wasn't able to make the play on a ball Zobrist or Bryant or Happ probably catch out there.
