Chris Davis is also a terrible start.

The formidable Baltimore Orioles slugger, who had signed a seven-year contract for $ 161 million after leading the majors with 47 homers in 2016, has been whistled several times in front of his audience at Oriole Park in Camden Yards on Thursday. .

"That's not something I really expected," said Davis, who scored in his three-game clash with the New York Yankees in the Baltimore home opener . "It was difficult at the same time, I heard a lot last year, and rightly so, I've said it before, I repeat: I understand the frustration, no one is more frustrated than me. Especially day like today. "

Davis has not registered success this season yet. He is 0 to 17 with 11 strikeouts and is one of three players who play every day looking for their first shot in 2019.

This year was supposed to be a rebound season for Davis. He has just finished a historic 2018 season during which he broke a .168 record in 470 and posted a 37% kill, the worst in the league. His power figures fell off a cliff with only 16 circuits and a .539 OPS. The Orioles were hoping these numbers would be at a low for a player in which they would have invested $ 161 million in guaranteed money. Davis, however, seems to be worse than ever in 2019 after finishing last season on a 0-21 run.

In a sense, you have to be sensitive to Davis. It's hard to watch him struggle.

For a player who has recorded only two seasons of more than 5 wars in his career, it was reasonable to expect him to succeed 30 circuits and maybe 250 for a few years with a ton of withdrawals on catches. Instead, he became the worst everyday player in baseball.
