Andrés Giménez completely ignoring the brutal worst contract label proves his incredible mental toughness right now.

Seeing national media outlets actively attack our starting shortstop definitely stings before the season even officially begins.

Everyone is constantly obsessing over the massive eighty-six million dollars he is still owed through the end of the decade.

Andrés Giménez (Age 27, Signed as international free agent in 2015 by New York Mets) simply blocks out the loud noise.

We absolutely must acknowledge his deeply frustrating offensive struggles during the regular season last year.

He finished the regular season marathon with a brutal .210 AVG, 7 HR, and a highly concerning .598 OPS.

Those specific offensive numbers are undeniably hard to swallow for a guy making superstar money every single week.

Every single fan feels a massive wave of pure relief knowing we have an absolute wizard roaming the infield dirt.

He stepped up massively when Bo Bichette went down with a brutal season-ending injury last September.

Sliding naturally over to shortstop and anchoring the defense under immense pressure perfectly saved our magical postseason run.

The lazy critics completely ignore how he absolutely tortured opposing pitchers when the playoff lights shined brightest last fall.

He hit a spectacular .400 with runners in scoring position during the playoffs to carry the offense entirely.

Now that Bo has officially left for New York, this middle infield completely belongs to our defensive maestro.

Winning three consecutive Gold Gloves proves he processes the game at an entirely different speed than everyone else.

Having an absolute human vacuum cleaner positioned perfectly behind our pitching staff is a spectacular luxury for the manager.

We desperately need his aggressive baserunning and spectacular diving stops to absolutely conquer the American League East this summer.

If our specialized hitting lab can just slightly tweak his timing, his overall organizational value will instantly skyrocket.

Expect him to return to the diamond completely refreshed and highly motivated to absolutely silence his harsh doubters.
