Probably didn’t help being jacked around. Yes, it could be one of the factors. Dismissing that seems odd. Ridiculous... longest leash given for any Brewer. In 2017, The team played bad Villar regularly in the leadoff spot for 5 months before finally realizing that he needed to sit. In 2018, the team still wants him to be 2016 Villar, has around 250 PA, and still gets the most time at the position. Unfair treatment to Villar rants are like complaining Votto gets pinched on his strike zone. Who have they had, this year, that has been better? I’m good with an upgrade but it has to actually be an upgrade. So far that hasn’t happened.
