The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He is extremely religious.
    He drew fire from baseball pundits for his inability to handle the Orioles pitching staff early in his career.
    He drew the ire of Oriole fans when he signed a contract with the rival Nationals.
    He was unable to live up to his billing as a top prospect.
    Despite being an established veteran, he was one of the first players cut by the U.S. Olympic baseball team (2021).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is the third player in the history of the Georgia Tech baseball program to earn All-American honors twice.
    He established himself as a solid defensive catcher during his early years with the Orioles.
    He played in four All-Star Games within a six year span.
    He was the first Orioles catcher in over 20 years to record a five-hit game, and the third one in the history of the Browns/Orioles franchise to accomplish the feat.
    He defied the odds and made a successful comeback in 2015, after getting Tommy John surgery eight months earlier.
