There exists a common theme among Buster Posey’s two most-recent community projections. In 2018, The Athletic’s Grant Brisbee wrote an article with the headline: Buster Posey is still great, everyone. The previous year, he used the headline: Buster Posey doesn’t have to be in decline, you know. There’s a sense of worry surrounding the unofficial captain of the Giants, and I suspect it’s only intensified after a down year.
Posey is coming off his worst full season and he spent the offseason recovering from hip surgery. It’s only natural to worry that Buster Posey might crumble to dust.
