Dan Duquette's "we're not interested in your player because our fans don't like him" winter is worth a thousand baseball offseasons.
It is the greatest bitch-slap ever.
There is a difference between swag and being an *******. Bautista crossed that line a long time ago.
Bryce Harper has swag. He might piss off a few people every now and then, including myself, but he's not a complete *******. I have no problem with celebrating, but there's a line. Catchers piss me off when they get mad when you watch a home run. Dude, I just belted a ball traveling 100 miles per hour near my head 450 feet with an instrument that is no greater than 2 3/4 inches wide. You can gloat a little.
HR because power is so closely associated with the HR ball and the anecdotal nature of baseball as story, but wOBA is probably more accurate.

His .425 career OBP is best among active players - that seems pretty great to me.
