Thanks, Mick.  You answered a number of questions I had re: why you don’t think Melvin is “all that”.

The one thing I would point out - I disagree with using average in the context you detailed.  It is better to use median.  IMO, because the 107 is such an outlier, the average is significantly skewed.  The median (81) represents a truer expectation based on past performance.

While we still have a strong difference of opinion regarding Melvin, I think we can agree the focus is now on Zaidi and how he navigates the off-season.
