With his new contract, Brett Gardner will reach a total of nearly $60 million in baseball earnings through next year, when he turns 36.
A leadoff man most of his career, he has struck out almost twice as much as he has walked, averaging 67 free passes and 120 whiffs per 162-game season with a slash line of 261/ .344/ .390. .735.
He is, as well, one of the worst all-time performers in the postseason, considering his number of opportunities.
In 52 games and 146 plate appearances, he has hit just .202/ .239/ .248/ .507, with 1 homer, 3 doubles, 10 walks, and 33 strikeouts.
Wow. That's horrible for anyone much less a left fielder and that's with his traditional dropoff after the all star break. I'll bet his second half numbers are closer to his post season ones

I meant that includes his second half dropoff. Sorry.

Actually, with his 2 million buyout and 7.5 million salary, he will have made just slightly over 72 million in his career.
