Maybe he'll shorten that zero production streak down from 5 to 4 weeks

And you still don't have a catcher worth a damn

And don't forget, he was 0-for-0 in the playoffs, which is batting a thousand!

Crawford will be 37 yrs old at the end of his contract.
While this isn't ancient, his main + attribute is speed.
