Baltimore's Chris Davis is having what may become the all-time worst season by any 'established' power hitter.
Here are his slash numbers through 52 games: .154/.234/.239/.474 with 4 homers and 75 strikeouts This compares 'favorably' with Adam Dunn's full-season 'creation' in 2011: .159/.292/.277/.569 with 11 homers and 177 strikeouts Shades of Bobby Bonilla: Baltimore is on the hook for four MORE Chris Davis seasons (AFTER this one) @ $23M/per. They signed him right after he led the majors in homers twice in three years...and it's been downhill ever since. .

Man, they could have gotten Chris Carter for about $22 Million less per year.

Yes, he's remarkably horrible.
But as an Orioles fan of nearly six decades...I'm not laughing. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Ted Turner, or rather his GM, signed Al Hrabosky to a similarly long-term contract which I believe just recently ran out...of course, that was a few years prior to and quite a bit of money less than the Bonilla pact.
Yup. Here's some detail: Terms were not disclosed but Hrabosky said the agreement includes deferred payments. It has been estimated those payments will total $5.9 million over 35 years. Hrabosky indicated a verbal agreement with Braves owned Ted Turner allows for the colorful left-hander to work for Turner's WTBS cable television station as a sportscaster when his playing days are over.

Perhaps the "Mad Hungarian" wasn't quite so mad after all.

At this point they should consider sending him down to AA or AAA for a while to get himself right. Whatever they've tried so far to get him out of this funk clearly isn't working.
