Buddy he’d be lucky to put together a season where he’s a league average hitter. The days of being in an MVP race are long gone. He’s competing right now for worst every day player in baseball, and is winning by a landslide
Cubs fan here. Always compared the Russell-Baez-Rizzo trio as the Cubs modern Tinker to Evers to Chance combo. As the poem says, Words that are heavy with nothing but trouble: Russell to Baez to Rizzo. Cheers....
When you hear the announcers say “hopefully he’s okay” multiple times in a defensive highlight video. There’s NO denying this guy gives it his all every time he suits up
I'm a Braves fan, but I always like Baez. The situational awareness and play making abilities make him a joy to watch. That run back to home oh my goodness i will never forget that.
Javy was batting .300 for the Mets hes a career .260 hitter. he has to lay off swinging at sliders but defensively and as a base runner hes going to give you above average play. He can have a comeback season in Detroit. He is proven in the playoffs and is a good locker room guy
Does anyone else believe a change of scenery with meaningful games will bring out the best of Baez? I realize he just got to The Tigers and he did sign the deal but if i'm a team close to contention, i think I would try to acquire him? I would love for my San Francisco Giants to trade for him! His deal is reasonable for a 30 yr old player with his defensive skills and rbi potential. I don't mind the free swinger approach.... I think you can hit him 6th or 7th and not have the strikeouts hurt you too much.... The Tigers could use more top rated prospects and we do have a couple of solid shortstop prospects we could entice The Tigers with.... The recent trend is not good with Javier Baez but hard to believe such a young player is declining this rapidly! It does happen though.... Guys get stubborn and refuse to make adjustments. Farhan Zaidi get The Tigers Gm on the phone and get a deal done!
I've been a big fan of his since 2015 and was thrilled when he signed here in Detroit. I really hope he can figure it out, when he's on he's one of the most entertaining players in the game.
As a Mets fan, it left a bad taste when he gave us the thumbs down for simply booing him for playing like shit. But watching this back, he is one of the best defensive players in the game without a doubt
Javier baez is trash the dude sucks he's the worst ss in the worst division in baseball he makes a ton of errors strikes out more times then I can count and just makes brain dead mistakes
The hand,eye coordination of this man is nothing short of phenomenal! Not since the likes of Derek Jeter has anyone come close to to the glove wizardry of Baez.
Derek Jeter was not a good ss. Adequate in his prime. The GG and ESPN highlights were bias and marketing to east coast consumers. Check his D-war stats
el tiro de un bounce de Baez en la mayoría de las jugadas es un tiro premeditado de hecho es exigencia principal para cualquier primera base que sepa recibirlo.
Lots of "Wows" throughout this video ... incredible player, but why would a team let him go? The first year he played, I thought he should be signed to a very long-term contract. Malcontent? I never thought so as a fan, he's just exciting to watch. He fields some absolute rockets in this comp and shows an arm to envy. Rizzo also made several saves that helped.
Cubs let everyone go. They didn’t have money to pay everyone. Pretty much Houston rockers type situation. Everyone got traded or left to walk in free agency
Watching Javy is pure fun and admiration of this great sportman. Rizzo and him…pure synch. Javy sigue pa’lante, positivo!!
I love this kid, just wish that he can put everything together in one season cause he can have an MVP type season with his talent.

Gee.. watching Baez is phenomenal--but can we talk about Rizzo's first baseman skills? They're both awesome!
Because it's a Baez' defensive plays videos...
As a Tigers fan, I can tell you that without Rizzo, he led the league in throwing errors.
yea bro that Báez/Rizzo combo was insane
I’m a lifelong White Sox fan but Baez was/is a beast. Can’t believe the Cubs didn’t hold onto that guy.
@@randyladiski3743 oh my God! you didn´t said that!
I can watch his highlights all day. I watch what ever team he plays for. He's the best Defense of player.
Báez is the Puerto Rican Gandalf "You Shall Not Pass" 😂🇵🇷
Doesn't matter who Javy plays for he's always incredible. Miss him in Chicago.
He’s the worst short stop in the league on the tigers
Say that to the Tigers lmao

Cant wait to see him play for PR again🇵🇷
Buenos dias Familia y buena SALUD para con tod@s especialmente MENTAL. LOVEEEEEEEEEEE IT 💯🇵🇷
さすが、バイエズ選手スーパープレー素晴らしい
had to watch this after his great performance in the WBC
He can be frustrating to watch with the bat but his glove work is amazing.

God ain't the word how bout genius my fav. For life ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉
He's incredible
even though he low key forgot where the strike zone was he is crazy defensively
How many times does Rizzo think: "No way he gets this one" but on second thought: "I'll cover the bag anyway because it's Javy"?
Baez might be my favorite player ever
El Mago, Ladies and Gentlemen!!!

Has so many of them a talent 🇵🇷😂
El y Rizzo juntos eran increíbles pq no todos los tiros eran perfectos
el tiro de un bounce de Baez en la mayoría de las jugadas es un tiro premeditado de hecho es exigencia principal para cualquier primera base que sepa recibirlo.
Muchos de ésos tiros los tuvo que ejecutar apurado y no en una buena posición de tiro. Si buscaba acomodarse para tirar hubieran llegado safe.
Cubs fan here..Javy's glove skills make up for any lack of offensive production..he is as good as it gets in the field
Nice vid bro! Baez the goat 🐐
Thank you bro!
No problem! I’m subbed and your videos are so good keep up the good work!!
Great Year incoming looked locked in at WBC
El mejor 🇵🇷
the magic man of baseball
People can say he’s overrated, obsolete or sucks at bat, he is still an awesome player.
In 2023, Baez's WAR was +0.6. The Tigers paid him $22M and he was basically a replacement level player.
I love how Rizzo would pimp out Javy’s amazing plays.
Lots of "Wows" throughout this video ... incredible player, but why would a team let him go? The first year he played, I thought he should be signed to a very long-term contract. Malcontent? I never thought so as a fan, he's just exciting to watch. He fields some absolute rockets in this comp and shows an arm to envy. Rizzo also made several saves that helped.
Defensively he was good for Chicago - but he practically closed his eyes in the batters box. RBI’s win games more lol

Wow 💯💪⚾️
To busy watching him swing at pitches in the dirt to see this
Lowkey a rizzo highlight tape as well
Javy should get serious consideration for Best Defensive Infielder of All Time.
Seguro Si Es Team Rubio....❤🎉🇵🇷🔥
wow super defence
I don’t know why the cubs broke up the trio they were the best
When Bryant, Rizzo, and Baez went away from the Cubs, I went away from the Cubs. After, at 67 years old, was a lifelong Cubs fan.
dat boi gud!
Defensively he's a monster but Rizzo is no slush either. The thing is he needs to work in his batting skills.
You know what's more amazing,is how no team leaves him at shortstop.
Cubs should of kept him, Rizzo, and maybe Bryant.
Glad he plays for Detroit
Rizzo will have a spot in the hall.
El Mago
El Mago..........
9:20 12:10 8:47
He gets rid of that ball so fast you'd think it's on fire
Wow
"God" is probably a strong word here. Just saying.
2017 baez was the zenith
Should’ve stayed at New York, but Detroit it is, he looked amazing at the WBC
🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🙏💪🏻

Es 10 mil veces mejor jugador que el puyado de tatis Jr

Porque creen que le dicen el mago
Yesssssssssss 😂
LA BASTIA 🇵🇷
No one is in God mode, Eduardo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Correct! There is only one GOD!! Although Baez is no doubt one of the best infielders ever.
I wish Baez had been cheap enough to just come home…. But damn tigers who ruin players… I mean yes he was on decline… but he’s only 31
Since getting to Detroit he’s been horrible at hitting the ball.. but his defensive play is still 👌
If only he didn’t swing at every ball thrown in his vicinity
As flawed a player as he is, I really wanted to see him get re-signed by the Cubs.
Ya but then he gets benched Base running IQ is -999
Hes a bum glad the Mets didn't sign him
Yeah. This headline didn’t age well.
He got rizzo making splits and struggling harder than a fat ballerina
Rizz is so smooth for a big man. Dude has hands for days
Screw his "god mode" defensive plays - he's makING 25 million a year from my Tigers and batting .178. He's COMPLETELY WORTHLESS.
Dude can't hit
You could make an equally long video showing all of his errors too. 26 of them in 2022
