Joe argues that Nootbaar is "overhyped," citing his inability to stay on the field and lack of superstar production. He asks the tough question: Why do teams love a player who has never played a full season? Brenden pushes back, defending Nootbaar as a "Statcast darling" who produces above-league-average numbers even in "down" years. ⭐️ Become an STL Sports Central Insider: https://stlsportscentral.com/2025/11/15/stl-sports-central-insiders 👑 Presented by DraftKings.
