My Take
What endears me to Travis Shaw isn't a Hall-of-Fame resume but the texture of a real big-league career: eight seasons of grinding through three organizations, the Red Sox, Brewers and Blue Jays, as a steady corner infielder. That nickname, the Mayor of Ding Dong City, says everything I love about baseball's folklore, the way a clubhouse and a fanbase mint affection for a man who shows up and produces. At 6'4 out of small-town Ohio, Shaw is the kind of dependable professional who keeps the sport human. I respect players like him far more than the hype tends to allow.
