    I don't think the Astros could've gotten a better replacement for Carlos Correa.

    Baseball has come a long way in regards to metrics.

    Never in a million years would a guy with his errors have won not too long ago, it was all about highlight jump throws :rolleyes:. Adam Everett would have won multiple gold gloves had he played a decade later.

    It was close between him and Mateo, either guy winning would have been defensible.

    So high school girls celebrate after the first time they get dick? It’s just completely nonsensical post.

    It makes more sense once you realize the poster is a 14 year-old boy trying to sound tough and also fantasizing about all of those girls just waiting for him in HS.

    Anyway, great job Peña and shockingly great job voters! Overcoming the perception bias of a) errors, b) being an Astro is shocking but nice.

    Not that it matters about anything pertinent, but I still think about slow dancing with Marlo's glorious ti*s at an 8th grade dance 30 years ago.

    For me it was always about your mom's t*** but yeah, I understand the sentiment. I would venture to guess Malro doesn't actually think about any of us the same way.

    Jeremy Pena is on pace to be the first ever rookie SS to win a Gold Glove, ALCS MVP, and WS MVP. Holy ****.

    That's literally the saddest thing you've ever posted, and you chose to advertise spending multiple years in Saint Louis.

    Might should have thought about playing him in cf last ws just to get his bat in the lineup.

    also Correa didn’t win a Gold Glove that year . And when you add Jeremy’s heroics in the post season he definitely tops Correa’s rookie year IMO

    Why do people hate Los? He was great here. Pena has been amazing and we made the correct decision. It's ok to like both

    I don't think everybody hates Correa. They're just happy that Pena has not only replaced him, but is just as clutch if not more clutch at a fraction of the price.
